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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Valves for EFI Husqvarnas or any other models??

Working on my EFI 510 engine got me thinking. What if I'd ever need valves redone on my bike?

After hours of browsing the internet, I couldn't find any aftermarket valves for the EFI Husqvarnas. Only option would be to buy the OEM's for 202€ a pop. THAT'S 808€ FOR JUST THE VALVES! Which would be stupid considering I could buy the whole cylinder head assembly already assembled from the factory for 750€.

How long do the valves even last on these bikes if you check them regularly?
Manual suggest to change every 10000km, but that's kinda meh.. Why fix when it isn't broken.

Also I haven't seen much threads about valves seizing on these bikes on here or other forums.

Thoughts:confused:
 
There are aftermarket valves for the 450/510 models for about 50 US dollars each so you can rest a little easier.
