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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2009 or 2008 SM610?

I'm getting a SM610, that is for sure :thumbsup:. Now the hard part: I've been told by my dealer that he can get a 2009 SM610 in four weeks or a 2008 SM610 in about a week. The 2008 is cheaper by about $800. What would you do and why? Are there major updates for the 2009? I have a TE250 so I can still ride so no worries there!
 
Not sure but I think bigger diameter front fork and black rims :confused:
If that's true ( you can ask the dealer? ) and you have another bike to ride and an extra $800 I would wait :excuseme:

Either way a good choice :D

:thumbsup:
 
Did the same math in my head. :confused: I have a 08 TE450. Well, I did not see the benefits to the bigger forks and black rims. I have the 08 SM610 for that reason. 800.00 bucks will do allot. Like the power up pipe and such from George at Uptite. :thumbsup: I actually got the bike for 6000.00, 350.00 to ship and 580.00 tax and registration. :D < that is how I look when I am riding.
 
Thanks for the replies. I decided to go with the 2008 as I'm itching to get into the SM fun as soon as possible and I may be able to convince the wife that the $800 should go towards farkles such as a more comfortable seat (for her, of course ;)). It's going to be a really long week as I wait...

:applause:
