Nice 99!! Where did you find the plastics???
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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Hello everyone. Just figured that as a new member I'd introduce myself and two of my bikes here.
I'm a 33yo car guy from west coast Sweden, with a big love for Italian Huskys. On the car side of things I mostly own/work with/like Japanese cars from the 80s & 90s, but Saab is a big part of my life as well. This love for japanese cars made me fanboy a lot for Honda motorcycles, but then I bought my first WR250 and I'm not going back.
It has some mods, which was mostly done by previous owner:
* Supermoto conversion, 120mm Pirelli Diabolo Rain front, and 160mm Pirelli Diabolo Rain rear.
* Big front brake
* Pro Circuit Works exhaust
* 360 (not sure if WR or CR) gearbox
* R-Tech Vface front light
* SMRR450 graphics (I think?)
* Plated & street legal
My other "nice bike" is a 1996 WR360, which I have mounted the 06 plastics in black with Blackbird graphics, fuel tank, subframe, airbox and and seat on. It also has a FMF Gnarly exhaust and my go-to-headlight, the Rtech Vface:
I would like some help with the front forks on the 360 though -- Which model year are they, and what model years will fit my frame?

I do some hobby level enduro riding in forests around where I live, so nothing too serious.
The first Husky I bought was a 2007 WR250, which looks like this:

Hey man!
Nice line upThat 360 really caught my attention, it really looks great. Let me guess, license plate B** *65? If I'm right, then it's one of my old bikes
I'm also on the west coast of Sweden. Just started up my 1999 WR360 after some years resting in the garage.
These would bolt right up would need 25mm wheel bearings and newer Italian Husky (28mm / 25mm) axle and spacer.

I'm using them on my 86 430ae with 93 360wr triples and modern hub and brake.
