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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I only have about 50 hrs on my bike. The hour meter stopped working after about 10 hrs and never bothered to replace it. I mostly ride trails and MX for fun, but do my best to abuse it. So far, so good. The only problems I had: a leaky kickstart seal (from the factory), leaky clutch cover (my fault), loose motor mount (from the factory), and a leaky countershaft seal (I put the chain too tight, stopped when the chain was loosened). The drain bolt is a bit cross threaded due to a bit of debris getting in there when I pulled the screen out (stupid design). Otherwise, the bike has run perfect. We will see what the motor looks like when I pull it apart in a few months.
