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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

A better case-saver

After looking at various case saver designs for my 2009 TE 610 on the net, I started making a cardboard template to make my own, but halfway through I started thinking that making a complete aluminum box around the front sprocket to replace the plastic cover and at the same time have the aluminum portion that runs in line with the chain to stop it whacking the engine casings in case of a broken chain will be a lot better. I don't know what the chances are of breaking a chain, but prevention is better than cure. I will post some pics as soon as there is something finished.
Does anyone know what masterlink to use with the standard chain, I bought a link for a 520 DID X-link chain and the pins are too short by about 1.3mm. The salesman said that O-ring chains are no longer available, only X-ring ones???
