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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2010/2011 250 X-lite motor question

AA Class
I am wondering if all of you who have this motor have the bottom crossover coolant hose touching the exhaust flange? The 2010 that I am building up for my wife has the hose touching, and that just seem goofy to me. It looks as though it has been sitting there for the entire time (1900 miles) the original owner had the bike. There does not seem to be anyway "sano" to keep it off that flange. Thoughts?
 
Sad to admit, but my bike is that way too. Every time I see it I bend the metal tab up to keep it off there. I also say I am going to rig up a cut hose over it and tie it up with a zip tie or wire. It is a bad design but should be a easy fix.
