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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Water Cooled Bottom End

RTM

Husqvarna
B Class
I have just purchased a bottom end from a water cooled left kick husky - Engine number 2191040 (cannot find any reference to it) I bought it as I wanted a 6 speed box. It has a SEM ignition with large diameter flywheel. So assumed it to be either a WR or a XC. However on removing the flywheel I discovered that the stator behind is not as per other SEM systems I have seen. It has exposed radial coil windings rather than encased windings as usual with SEM systems.

I have yet to split the cases to count the gears. but any idea's on the indo supplied?
 
looking at the chart on Husqvarna parts.com I rekon its an 87 cr 430 which starts with 2171, check your number again....
 
Just measured the stroke (big end is shot) but it came out at 76mm so the nearest is the 400 or a 430. The clutch basket is held on by a nut not a circlip. Will post photo's later. I'd count the gears but I can only get two with a bunch of neutrals. The SEM flywheel is the large version, so that why I thought it either a XC or WR. There are three wires coming away from the stator, would that indicate non lighting coil or with lighting coil? Once again will post photo's later.

its a later model case with the extra boss for side case screws, but the shaft is earlier
cant remember if the 86 has the extra screw but I don't think so from memory
could be a conglomeration
 
I split the cases last night to find a six speed box within. Hoping I can use the 6th gears inside my 83 CR 5 speed gearbox.

My 1986 400WR has the extra screw in the cover while the 1985 400WRX does not
 
the gears need to be used as a set 5 speed and 6 speed parts are not interchangeable, everything between the cases moves over shafts, gears, shift drum etc
 
shame that. I could use the 6 speed box from the 400 wr complete then I guess but the dogs are knackered on one gear for sure.
