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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

http://daveriley.weebly.com The one in the section Matchams Park April 1973 Hants Grand International has some fantastic Husky pics of Aberg , Wade , Kring although the title is wrong it was not at the stony Matchams that year but on the grassy slopes of Blandford Forum in southern England. I was there as an awestruck 14 year old , watching aberg power sliding the 360 or was it 400cc works husky was quiet a sight along with John banks on the Cheney Bsa that sounded like a chinook helicopter.
 
Judging by the first pic of Aberg.. you can see the front frame/engine mount is the bolt up type.. Same with Roberton's bike.. Aberg's bike will be a 360.. you can see the "works" radial head on Andy's bike...they didn't see production until 1975..
 
Don't be fooled by Roberton's bike, my dad made a lot of changes to the frame for Andy, mainly due to him being very short in the leg.
 
I remember those black snap on helmet face guards, they were called "Bad Breath masks"
I had one as a kid..Love to find another
