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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Seat foam repair

Just got a seat cover for my 72 Husky and before I put it on I was wondering if there was a way to repair an aged seat foam?
Mine is a bit rough around the rear and on the front the bolt that holds the tank on gouged it out some. All of the damage is pretty light.
A new foam is unnecessary and would cost to much.

Ideas? Thanks!
 
You can use great stuff @ home improvement store. Spray on, let foam harden, trim with knife.

I did a newer seat that got a tree limb poked thru cover and took chunk out of foam. It worked to keep shape and put new cover on. Thought?
 
I thought of that, but I was afraid the poly foam would be too hard. Might be worth a try. Nothing I can't remove.... I hope.
