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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi Guys

I owned a 2007 610 for 4 months, i had bought it for one purpose of attending a Rally in Canada. In the time i owned the bike i did three offroad ride. The 610 is very very capable bike in all.

But in Canada when we were crossing huge water ponds and some rivers, i was for the first time amazed that the 610 has a really low airbox intake. I do have the 250 and the 450, and on both of those engines we got the airbox under the seat....so to get swamped u need the bike well under water, but the 610 has it on the side.....

any reason why as to this kind of engineering.....was it not developed for crossing water....other bikes that did fine was the KTM 690 enduro, couple of KLR and even XR.....i got swamped...although it was real easy to get the water out and the engine didnt drink a lot....the oil was fine....no milky shite....rode the rest of the event....it performed like a ferrarri on the dry stuff....

also why the clutch cable, and not hydraulic clutch....
