• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

my project bike carbueration?

I really enjoyed riding the cr390. The 83 430 had gobs of power/tractor like torque but it was smoother. I also had and rode a 81 cr250, 86 400WXE. I never rode a 500cc.
I like the hit and power.

My streetbike was a 99 Suzuki 1200 bandit with some retuning done. She's a wolf in sheep's clothing being a detuned gsxr1100 when new I like a wild ride.
 
The stock 79 390cr has a lot of hit besides rear wheel spinning, ripping power. The only time the rear wheel stops spinning is when I let off the shift. Then she goes back to ripping again. You can tell where the 390 goes or where I have been.

Now will I lose all the hit and earth spinning power with the lectron? Our days are shorter when I ride the 390.

it very well may pull harder, even just for the fact its easier to get it closer to tuned quickly. i would think the lectron will smooth the transition when the 390 gets up on the pipe. should make it easier getting off and on the band.
 
Sounds good if I don't like it I can put it on a 250. But I think it will workout out but I may want more if it works that good.
