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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

650 Terra, let's get buyers count

Bought mine 3 weeks ago - rode it home 8 miles in 18 degrees! Then snow, snow, snow! Was able to do a quick run to my favorite bike shop for a quick visit Saturday before ---- it snowed again!

This bike will replace my 1200 GSAdv - love the size/power ratio!

Just put money down on a Terra...super excited, pick it up first week in March. Buying it from Town and Country Cycle Center in Jersey.

Picking out skid plates is so much fun...
 
Enjoy reading all the input. Bought my Terra mid December and really love it. Other bike is Ducati Multistrada with 150 Hp but still love my dualsport. They are built for different situations and each serves its purpose. Ride National forest roads and will make atrip out west this summer. Louisiana is hot and the mountains will be calling about June.
Agree with all the discussion re: engine guards to protect radiator. etc. SW motech engine guard for Multistrada is designed for our Terra. If they make one along same design lines we need to buy the hell out of them.
My take on Ktm buying Husqvarna is the 2 stroke connection. Both have developed clean burning 2 strokes and appear to be the only manufacturers with the potential to bring it to the market soon. BMW poured big bucks into Husky to compete with KTM and now KTM bought the competition.

Just a thought

We are visiting brisbane Australia soon , just wondered if any aussies on here know where to get wolfman luggage in brissie?
cheers
 
purchased 2/7/13 @ HYR (Honda Yamaha of Redlands). First street legal bike i've owned. I walk to work so this if for adventure and exploration.
 
Got mine in early Nov. Donnells in Independence MO.
So far I've put handguards, Motosportz skid plate, a tailpack and a wind screen fashioned from an old v strom screen.
I intend to use it to replace my v strom (sold) and my 640 adv (not sold yet).
Still have an off road only bike, so I'm looking forward to dual sport riding and M/C camping with this one.
I've got some old ortlieb bags I may try and use till I come up with a way to mount the wolf man bags on it.

The forum thread I was participating in for sharing TR info has degenerated in to an argument over the buyout so I will try and contribute here.

I just bought my Terra last night at Grand Prix Motorsports in Denver. So far, I've only got about 55 miles on it split between pavement and forest roads. I plan to use it for commuting and weekend exploring...hopefully I'll get enough miles on it with my commute this week to drop it off for the first service on the weekend and start turning up the wick past 5000 rpm a bit!
i live in the area and am also planning on buying from grand prix. did yours come with the tool kit and manual? had it been demo ridden before?
 
Had my new terra 2days, what a good bike, been riding road bikes for the last 20 yrs, this thing is just the ticket for my round Oz adventure. Comments are 2 stalls but seems to be ok now after a fresh full tank of 95 octane, let's see. The dash electronics seem to be steam driven, Av fuel , current consumpion, 7.7 litres/ 100k;s , I don;t think so, but all this I can live with for a bike at such a good price with all road travel competance. The side stand is a shocker so i bent the top spring lug foward so it now does not fall on it's side when you touch it. After 400ks the coolant is low, no leaks, just settling I suppose. Being a short arse put the rear spring to min and dropped the bike down the forks 1/4in may be turning in a bit better, nice. To boot Husky Oz are giving $500 cash back for the 110 Yr versary, there's the bag frames sorted. I hope sol2be.com can sort the fueling, their gizmo fixed my last 650gs twin perfectly. Happy days.
 
Bought mine Saturday :banana: at Bill's in Salem. What a bunch of really great people working there!!! That was my best experience with a dealership ever. Had talked to Lon, their sales guy on the phone the week before about my interest in the Terra, so when I got there he had put a tag with my name on the bike to hold it! Took their demo Terra (Bill's own bike?) for a couple of spins around the block and I knew that was the bike I was looking for.
Just got to go back next weekend to pick it up. :D Can't wait to drive my new Terra the 250 miles home.
