• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

SORRY FOR THE PUN .AT THE KEMPTON OFF ROAD SHOW AUTOJUMBLE UK I FOUND A SET OF ITC OHLINS SHOCK OF I THINK A 510 . ON STRIPING THEM I FOUND THAT THE ITC PART OF THE PISTON ASSEMBLY HAD BEEN CUT OUT AND THE SHIM STACKS REVAVED BY ROBIN AT FALCON SHOCKS UK. HAS ANYONE USED THIS MODIFICATION GOOD OR BAD. HOW GOOD ARE YSS SHOCKS ON THE 83 THANKS
 
yeap pretty standard mod to do away with the ITC piston, if the guide bushes had excessive play or wear this would allow the ITC piston to contact the outer body, thus bending the shock rod.
Robin knows his stuff with these shocks !!!
 
god u lot are sensitive 180 uk bent rods . i hate robins mod on the seal block , crap rubber bushings on the shock ends spent this evening on my old colchester making weld on shock ends other than that a bargain ****************************************
