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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

What to do with you winning lottery winnings

I would buy land in the northeast and sponcer vintage mx racing every weekend. I'd make it popular as it is on the west coast. Even a super cross track. Plus the old harescramble course too. Even the old motorcycle GP vintage track Racing.
I make it so the common man or gal could race. I'd help them too if they had the drive and heart for success even if they didn't win if they have it there all. A little track for the 4yo and up. Father son rides.

Build a storage building and a swanky motel on site with guards so your bikes and equipment is locked up safe for over night stays.

Weekdays for fun riding is free.

Paramedics on sight. First aid station on site.

Private property so no state registration is needed. No one will ruin your ride.

It's a time to give back if I hit the lottery. My enjoyment would be seeing the old iron race again. The only thing I would purchased is the CAT dozers, rollers, bucket loader, water truck to groom the tracks. Plus build a gourmet food court with awesome food.
High in carbs and protein. Maybe a hooters?

Winning millions of dollars would help others too with plenty of new jobs for adults and kids. Is call it the CARLSBAD of the east.

I think the state of Mass is rider friendly.
 
Be nice if the AMA museum picked them up for people to go see?

2nd choice would be for them to go to Husqvarna museum in Sweden?

Thought has crossed my mind, to donate a couple of mine to AMA museum after I am gone in my name? Just for future generations to see what once was.
 
I would buy the beach forest in gloucester and turn it into a extreame enduro training ground similar to the hard one but on my back yard, then i would buy a house or just build one in a tree and live like a hermet for the rest of my days.
 
I'm so sorry I sold my older Suzuki, Yamaha, husqvarna dirt bikes I had a great start for a museum.

I wonder what the dirt bikes will look like 50years from now? Electric? Ion powered?
 
It will be illigal to ride anything more powerful than a solar charger an probably live in place similar to megacity one Dredd stye.
Nah ive not got a clue about bikes of the future but definetly battery powered for a few years.
 
First - I would make sure in my new complete workshop - I would have a complete set of the best bike years and models on display. Which models is another question.

But for all - I would completely document each bike for the future. Create a complete CAD database set of plans for each bike and model. Measure in great detail each and every part, frame, transmission gears, cases etc. ( with today computer coordinate measuring machines it would be almost easy) With the advanced pace of 3D printing and the advancement of machining costs I could just keep creating parts for years. How about in the near upcoming future even machining and printing up a new vintage bike for yourself. ( See Space X make working rocket engine parts on 3D printers now). I have seen inperson a complete assembled ball bearing being made from inside out on 3D printer.

It would preserve the brand for all.


PS - with the quality of Mag cases today and no replacements I really would like draw and document a set of plans for these first.
 
I'd start my own church for the moto faitful and donate all my winnings to it so the brainless jerks in DC couldn't squander the taxes on things like grants for studies of the effects of massage on rabbits. Then the church would have something like BigBill mentioned.:banana:

CAN I GET AN AMEN!!??
 
I would like enough money to buy the states of Az, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico for one giant off-road paradise with great year round riding of every possible type.

And there would be a strict no-idiot policy, And I know it when I see it!
 
Good, we can start by passing a bill to take off all warning labels with their pictures.
That get rid of most!
 
bigbill, my resume is in the mail. i can drive anything you want, maintain the tracks, the rental bikes, whatever...im all in. of course we will use as many husqvarna products as possible to maintain everything. ill cut trails, chapperone kids, whatever. my wife is an outstanding cook as well. i just need an acre for living quarters
 
Cook? Good chili? Swedish meatballs for energy to ride the huskys.
I play the Powerball everytime it goes to 200 million+++++.
 
Justinendo not sure what an acre of whoops right in the middle of the loop would be used for, suppose it could be a track side loo Or first aid hut..
 
Guys....you cant do all this stuff in everyone's back yard, the guvvinmunt will land grab you after the EPA shuts you down for noise and the squatters will move in......

buy a couple of aircraft carriers and build a super enduro track on them. Anchor them just outside the sea limit, practise firing the 50 cals every other day (Pirates are about you know:oldman: )and if its calm, you can jump from one to another! or if your brave, time it as one is up and one is down:eek:

tickets are cheap for bike riders (free to husky owners) and with a bit of clever work, a 50 minute loop throughout the ship should be easily achieved....

no taxes and booze is duty free****************************************

Book early to avoid disappointment:thumbsup:

I would work for Bigbill. There was a great Vintage Hare Scramble (test) series happen this year in New England with NETRA. Next year it looks like it will be a go, and be on the schedule!! This will be a start to Bigbill's series.

Being a Trials rider, I must admit, a Trials Cruise Ship sounds like fun too. Great fun for the whole family!
 
I like the idea of carriers, nothing like several floating acres of sovereign land. I would make sure the catapults work for air support, and one rescue helo each for those big get offs. Any navy aviators out there?
