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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

AJP PR7 Rally 660

Thats been floating around for a few months now. Its real and because of the overwhelming response is happening. Should be 2016 model but maybe late 2016. We will see. Lots to do between now and then. That bike would sell like crazy here. If they can really make that thing 340 pounds they will have a winner.

Clearly AJP has plans...

And yes, many of them. I am closely involved with the importer and AJP has been around for 27 years and is a great company of enthusiasts doing some really cool things. The PR5 model has become one of my favorite off rod bikes ever for my woods riding here.
 
I've been waiting for them to do something in the Dual Sport area, and looks like they will. Hope they have the sub-frame designed to carry racks for soft bags. Fuel fill under the seat will be a real pain though. Another thing would be factory provisions for mounting and powering a GPS, etc., without having to remove tank and plastic to access the battery and wire loom.
 
The XT Engine is dead relaible, but its a bit heavy...
For a dual sport bike it might be perfect- it has tourqe and it will last forever...
 
Kelly, make sure to get in the ears of AJP about the sub frame concerns etc. If they can run the exhaust a little higher like the Gas Gas Rally bike that would be better for DS log crossing's etc.

BTW there is a steel subframe on the rear so mounting points for racks and stuff should not be an issue.
 
Great looking bike for sure.
It has some very nice components.
Love that rally type fairing:)

A six speed trans is the main thing that is missing IMO.

Cool bike.
 
With a torque engine a 5 speed is probably enough. It is on the Terra.

I'm still concerned about rack attachment. The frame looks very clean down around the pegs and brake cylinder. Need access to the sub frame mounts to fix the rack lower strut. Maybe there is something behind the plastic, but I wish they would take care of this for us. How many will race this bike? Many more will use it for adventure touring. Think ahead AJP.

I agree that the 5 speed would be more than adequate for TR type duty but the PR 7 is much more off road capable and a 6 speed could allow a low first gear without sacrificing as much comfortable cruising speed IMO.
I have ridden Bills (BMP) TR enough to get to know it. It is a great bike. :)
 
Agreed; a lower first gear would be great to have. I have the TR one tooth down on the counter shaft and it's just barely enough, requiring a bit of clutch work some times. I guess I have to stand corrected. However, I doubt they will give us a 6 speed box, like on the TE 630.
