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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My bike has been sitting for 3 months. battery charged, fuel tap open, no fail message, I hear clicks and fuel pump, engine turns over but dead as the Senate. I do not smell any gas even though it has been turned over a couple dozen times (not at once). What is the drill to trouble shoot this bike. Bike is new to me. Was running fine when I parked it.
 
Well after 2 hours of trying (once every 10 minutes) it finally started and ran perfect. I would still like to hear the trouble shooting drill if the bike dose not start.
 
Perhaps the fuel system had some bad fuel gumming it up? With the constant priming of the fuel pump it could have finally passed the stuff that created the clog. The best thing to do when you know you're going to park it for a while is to add fuel stabilizer, then take it for a short ride, or at least let it idle for a few minutes to make sure the stabilizer has a chance to go through the fuel system.
