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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 have always wanted an expensive digital SLR, but have never seemed to get around to it.
Buying the camera is one thing, having the ability to use it is another. Needless to say, the photographer of the above is a pro.
Thanks! I was kinda going for the Husky Products works look if you know what I mean.class act ! looks like you fell out of the 1987 husky products catalog. LOL !!! nice pics ,gear and awesome bike. good lock with it.
Possibly next time I'll have some vids, I want to take it to southwick MX before the season is over.Awesome photo's! Would be even better with sound! Love hearing vintage open class two strokes Roar!
Nice shots Michel
Love the Bell Moto 3. I have been looking for one for years now. I have a collection of Moto 4's that I use. The old Bell's have got to be one of the most comfortable helmets ever made.
Are you going to Farleigh Castle next weekend Michel ??
I've read that 2-3 years ago , a 390 hva rider tooks in South Africa finished 2nd or 3rd in an Modern Endurance.great shots, i just love those early 510's.
Ol mate rode one at the mallee rally years ago. After 36 hrs straight on the tractor plowing his paddocks, he chased the highly fancied team honda boys on their "new" 600 xrs into 3rd place.
