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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Need ideas for plug wire repair

The motoplat coil wire on my 83 xc 250 is about shot, the wire is cracked in a few places, and you can see the core wire. Is there any way to repair or replace it with out getting a new coil. Is there a way to attach a new wire? I have some nice leftover MSD wire from my car laying around. Thanks Matt

I believe there p/n 401-71532 is about $20 & bolts right in.

I'd keep the old one though, & try the repair as a Winter project,
can't have too many spare parts when dealing with old bikes.

check out nology.com

They have Hot Wires that will increase spark voltage.
Which every Motoplat can use.
I have not tried them yet but i am looking to run one of these and a Denso IW24 P/N 5316 (NGK B8ES/B8EV eqiv.) plug before i replace my entire ignition system.
They also have coils too.
 
first thing i did on mine was replace the entire system with pvl (yes expensive) but never had to worry.

now if i could only get my jetting done....
 
Hey Leftcoast,

How is that PVL working for you?

If you had to do it all over again would you still go with the PVL or maybe the MZB?
