• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 different kind of Husky

I would imagine they would be really fun to ride, especially with the better handling afforded by the roadracer geometry, but I wouldn't think they'd be fun to race. I mean, they are still small-displacement singles on big racetracks. Does WERA still race at Grattan? It might be fun there, but I can't imagine racing one of them on a big horsepower track like Willow Springs or Road Atlanta or Brainerd.

I think if guys could ride 50cc to 500cc 4 strokes in the old days at the Isle of Man, Spa, Assen and all the old Euro tracks, it would work just fine anywhere! I want one made from a WR360!:eek:
 
Good luck finding the bodywork. There was a place making them but probably not for husky. I'll look for it this weekend though. These bikes would be great. Think of the 250 classes with ninjas except we have 450's with twice the horsepower and that way quite a bit less even with wheels and bodywork
