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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

ACK! A rare anti-Husky post from me.

Chain guides.... I still put the old "enduro" style on my Huskys. Still works on my '82 250WR and works on my '09 WR125!

I've been lucky with some of the other things. I did finally break a rear brake pedal tip. Luckily I had the piece and a little welding set it right. A bolt on tip (instead of riveted) that you can buy as a seperate OEM piece would be nice.:thumbsup:

I dare say KTM has the tip as a replacement. Also the chain guide is a second vote. If they keep using the MX one.........at least have it so the stock rear sized sprocket does not rub on it and the width is too narrow for an O ring chain (the side plate pins that is....it rubs.
 
1: Push button bleeders stock on all forks.
Just make them with strong valve springs so they dont suck in air under fork extension/internal vacuum, some of those aftermarket ones do that.
