• 2 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st What did you do to your Husky today?

Nice to have lights- a tail light gives the following rider a little chance to keep pace

I'm more concerned about those late in the day times when a miscalculation of mileage or speed might extend the ride, and I might need a little light to help me get back.:thinking:
 
Finally put new rear tyre on, washed her and took top end off for refresh.

Looks a tad rich to me, have backed off power jet an will do 1/4 turn on metering rod.
 
New piston in fresh gaskets squish set to 1mm 55thou strip off put rings on pv set up bolt back together then off to super cross! image.jpeg image.jpeg

P.s. First heat cycle done, put non decomp head on shes a beast all over again!
 
Replaced my 07 TE 450 with this '10 CR 150 Last weekend. Today...removed subframe (lower subframe bolt easy out due to prior stripping), removed went over all linkage bushings bearings on rear...looked good. Regreased and put back together as per proper torque specs. Ordered carb boot and airfilter. Repacked the stock silencer.

Done since taking ownership last Sunday:

1. Above work today
2. Drained and replaced fluids (gear with Belray/Engine ice in rads)
3. Retorqued triple clamps


Next....wait for parts to come in and then get back atter:D

Stalled my '11 wr 300 in a giant 3-4 foot deep 35 deg F muddy puddle (it didn't look that deep, honest), pushed it out, pulled the plug, tipped it upside-down, purged a few muddy pints of frog water from the barrel and bottom end, put it back on its feet, put a new plug in it, kick it 20-30 times to get it to start, let it warm back up and purge remaining fluids, kept riding. That was the worst of 3 drinks she took yesterday. The other 2 didn't require this kind of triage, just 10 or so kicks to get it going and purge it after it stalled. Rough day. At least I got my jetting sorted out...until I drowned it. Funny how filling the engine w/dirty water throws the jetting off... Need to figure out an alternative routing of carb breather hoses for my PWK ASII. Currently two are routed to the air box and the other two routed to drain next to the gas overflow hose. I'm either getting a load of water in the air box or it's pulling water from the bottom hoses...
 
Seal up the bottom of ya airbox(2 big slits where shock protector flap mounts) with silicone then drill a small hole maybe 1/4" on stand side of lowest point of airbox when bike upright. Do it stand side so any water will drain when on stand. Trust me drowned mine a few times after rerouting breathers couldn't work it out til I did this
 
Near enough shawbagga plastercine, never been a fan of solder method seems un needed load on the piston not putting anything solid in my cylinder.

fired the 300 up after sitting for a year, took longer to start then expected. But got excited to ride again !

Found WD40 helps get them running... A few squirts in the cylinder kicks over- Especially if the engine is flooded.
