• 4 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     TE = 4st Enduro & TC = 4st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

New breed of Husqvarna...?

Husqvarna
A Class
Have not been seeing much in here about the new bikes. I know they are not here yet but man the FE 350 looks and sounds incredible. I love my TE 250 but there are times it feels underpowered ( maybe I am getting to be a more confident rider) and if that 350 is half as good as it looks on paper it's going to be tempting..

Thoughts? Anyone heard of pricing?
 
Lots of info on the new Ktm based huskys at the top of the home page under Austrian husks. Including a ride report of a 350 and pricing.
 
I think the 350 is where Husky really needed to go with the 310. I have 2 310's and they have been bullet proof. That said for all round functionality I believe the 350 is at the apex in terms of power to weight, flickability, can do tight single stuff with aplomb and can ride fire trails with real pace (particularly with the wider ratio box). I will undoubtably get a 15 version, when they arrive.
 
The 350 is kind of a rev machine. It would be a great transitional bike for those moving from two stroke to four. I'd hold out to MY16 if you can.
 
I am frustrated that they don't put the kickstarter on it from the factory, I think they just want to make people pay to do it after the sale.
 
Someone will surely correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that a 90 day warranty on a dirt bike is pretty standard here in the states. I've never bought a new dirt bike that had more than a 90 day, but I bought a new street bike in 1995 (Kawasaki ZX11), it had a one year warranty, and my '08 H-D Street Glide had a two year. Perhaps the difference is that the white Huskys that we see at the moment are all dirt only, and thus 90 day warranty, while your TE is plated...But with this I'm making a huge assumption that they're doing the same in other countries as they are here, which very often isn't the case.
 
As soon as you race it, the warranty is void from what I can tell. That works out to my 300 having a warranty for 3 days. Heck, I'm on the third engine and I still have payments :thinking:
