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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Quick 81 stock exhaust question

Husqvarna
AA Class
I finally got my original silencer for my 81 250 cr project, It also has the stock original pipe, after looking at the parts diagram I see there is a connecting hose with two clamps. My question is both the stinger outlet and silencer inlet diameters are the same, do they just butt together or is my silencer wrong and one is supposed to slide into the other?
 
Thanks, I have seen that thread, Im just use to japanese bikes where the silencer fits into the stinger and a rubber coupler slides over the joint. Not shure how the Husky goes together.:confused:
 
My 82 CR 250 only uses the hose to couple the two together. Alot of the aftermarket silencers had a slip fit with a o-ring seal. The WR and XC silencers were slip fit also. The CR silencer also bolts direct to the frame and doesn't use the semi triangular alum. bracket. Hope this helps!

I've got an 81 430CR that's like that... only the hose connects them together. I thought a previous owner had cut the pipe too short. Maybe not? Both my CR's (430, 500) bolt right to the frame with an 8mm bolt, no triangular plate like the XC/WR.
 
I will be getting the stock any day now to couple the pipe and silencer together.

The high temp.European made hose is 1 3/8" inside diameter and rated at 391 degrees F. and 200 C. color is black.

I will sell them for $6 each or 2 for $10 plus shipping.

PM me with your orders and let me know if you want 2 or 3 inch lenght.
 
the green {hose} was only to keep oil from spewing all over the rider, plastic ect. should have a rubber O ring inside that sort of seals with the pipe.
a bracket hold it to the frame at the point at the seat attachement.
you can get green high temp hose at any auto parts store for AC hoses,..pricey, but works well.
originals had just one clamp, and other would have been added by a rider.
