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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just noticed something. The European WR125 has all the street switch gear but has the older open chamber forks. Odd.

The biggest selling husky model is the SM125. Europeans love them.

Ya, a couple years ago I was traveling through France and Italy, and saw about a million sm 125's. They looked like wayyy too much fun zipping in and out of traffic and alleys.
 
My TE 450 with SUMO wheels is absolutely dangerous! The ergos must change quite a bit with the smaller wheels as the front end kept going up in the air, plus I was launching out of corners...racing from stop light to stop light...riding up on curbs. I love it when a crotch rocket pulls up next to you thinking..."awe what a cute little dirt bike." Just about the same time I rip off into a corner dragging my foot peg and leave him behind!

The 2 representatives from Taskys explained some had kybs, some had zokes, dual chamber, single chamber... they talked about them and moved on to the next subject before it could all sink in.

Definitely bright people. I've got a hunch you may have talked to them since the meeting.

Not really. i can spot them a mile away. The twin chamber have a gold cap with red center (obvious) the open chamber are silver top cap. The KYB's have different axle clamps than the Zokes.
