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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Welcome to the forum! Introduce yourself here!

Justin from UTAH. Finally got my husqvarna after 5 years of waiting**************************************** Only bad thing is the bike is 6 years old. Oh well I am still happy.
 
Hello boys and girls,
I live in Australia, in between Sydney and Wollongong. I have 2 Huskies at the moment - an 87 WR 400 that I have just completed a resto on which I'll use as my trail bike (its almost the latest model dirt bike I've owned) and I have an 83 CR/XC that will be my VMX racer. Had a long spell from dirt bikes, about 20 years, started to ride a GS800 and really enjoyed being back on the dirt. I got some fantastic information from this site - thank you.
 
Hi all

long time reader first time poster.
as many of you already know most of you have already talked about just about everything and the search button come in so handy...

hope to chat to everyone soon...
 
Figured I'd introduce myself. I've liked husqvarnas for quite some time. Bought a '95 WXC250 in about '97 and raced it in AMA D-7 harescrambles in '99 and '00. Fantastic bike, worked well, very versitle. Only bummer was lack of dealer support in NoVA. I eventually had to sell it when I went back to school a few years ago. Just finished school and as luck would have it there's now an absolutely fantastic husqvarna dealer in my area (The Motorcycle Factory). It'll take me a few months to take the bar and start working, but chances are pretty darn good I'll be back to riding (and hopefully racing) a Husqvarna again by next spring. I'm not sure which model yet, I've been a two-stroke guy forever and am leaning toward an '09+ WR125 or WR150, but I will try to borrow a ride on an x-lite four stroke before I make the final call.

I've currently got a woods/desert prepped '01 CR250R that lives in Colorado and a couple of suzuki dual sports for puttering around here in VA.

Here's a picture of my old WXC and my wife's bike together on what I think might have been her very first "trail" ride (note we mostly stuck to the fire road, but she did great!).


Hopping a log on the WXC. Note the circra 1990's pink riding gear ;)


And my beloved CR in Colorado

I must admit to being something of a squid when there are rocks to play on

Hi All
I got myself a 2006 250 TE....looking forward to lots of dirt riding...had a KLR 650 found out that at 5'8 and 160 pounds I can lift the bike more than 5 times....and i did drop the beast quite a few times...and the first ride i had on the Husky...it felt like a cycle :)
Looking forward to more tech info from the site...

Hi Guys,

I am Dutch and living in Curacao. Busy importing a te 630 to the tiny Island.
As here are no husky- dealers, I’ll have to do the maintenance myself. I’m sure I can learn a lot from you guys.
Coming from the road, riding a Fireblade and a Superduke the last years.

Cheers. Yoel
 
Hi Guys,

I live here in Southern Ontario and I will be taking delivery of a 2011 TE 630 tomorrow! I hope to learn lots on this forum!

New member with a 1985 WRX400

I found a deal that I could not pass up on a 1985 WRX400 (enduro) and got it home yesterday. It's been garage kept for about 15 years and was pretty well maintained before that. Some TLC to do but I'm excited to get he running again!:thumbsup:
 
Welcome to the forum! Introduce yourself here!

Hello. I'm from the east coast now living in Minnesota. I am an older rider who mostly restores old Huskies from the 70s for fun. Other than an '86 510 for riding, I have a garage full of 1970's two strokes that go from busted frames and frozen engines to runners. The website is great.
