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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
quite a step up from the big box store Husky's. I only wish it was Red and white!
It is total anarchy! the Kawasaki motor is made in the USA.An orange husky with a kawasaki motor next to a german bike with a taiwanese motor . what has the world come to.
It even has a battery indicator/charging plug built in with flashing lights, 1. red=charge necessary
The charger is not included, it is 50+ dollors....
I hope this 23hp Kawasaki 42 inch cut will sling some grass! my old john deere 102 17hp,42 inch with 700 hours was getting weak.
I heard that. I still like 2 smokes.Husqvarna. Penton and other euro bikes were scarce in TN in the 70's and 80's. I wish I had my 76 MR 250 back! I spent several months restoring this bike. But if i kept every bike i liked i would need a warehouse!..and deeper pockets!.lolView attachment 26174
I need to digitize my old photos. great memories. Love the one your with.
I will give a ride report next week after it stops raining here.Please let us know how well that works out for you.
(I could tell you all sorts of things about a Wheel Horse purchased new 2 years ago...)
My last dual sport bike was a Honda 2007
XR 650R that i had modified to be barely street legal, the only thing lacking was high low headlight, but I was never stopped. It would do 115 mph and 3rd gear wheelies with 15-45 gearing and my 220lb body.I had a 40 rear sprocket i was going to try out, but never got around to it. I was thinking that maybe that would give a 120mph top speed.I do like high speed!..I really liked the Mefos tires. But it was kick start only and my old body is not what it used to be lol. that's why i sold it. This Terra is my first Husqvarna, and i love that E-start button!
