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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Any knobbys to fit 2009 Husky 610 SM Rims????

I saw a thread a while ago about Cheng Shin C755's and they looked like awesome knobbies for SM rims. But I don't believe they exist anymore to fit the husky. If anybody has another tire they use and can point me in the right direction to get my 610 a little dirty that would be greatly appreciated
 
WC has Heidenau tires on now, I don't remember the model. They look pretty sick though, like an intermediate rain tire. Similar to the Pirelli MT60. I've ran the MT60 (LOVE them but kinda spendy) and the Shinko 244 (very impressed with them, especially for the price, I railed all over the Pac NW woods on them last winter as well as commuting), and the Shinko 705 (didn't care for them, they're like a poor man's distanzia which, in my experience, sucks off road, and they're very heavy). Two of us on SM610's ran the OBDR this last June with skinny IRC VE33 (130/70 I think?) rears on the front, and Dunlop D606 rears. WC has also mentioned a Cheng Shin that looks pretty righteous, but I don't remember the model. But now that Continental has released the TKC80 in a real front tire for us (120/70-17) I'll be running those this winter.

Look in the "pics of your 610" thread - WoodsChick and I got to talking tires in there somewhere in the last couple months.
 
I use shinko 244's. can't beat the price. And they work great.

You can still get the Cheng Shin 755's but you have to look pretty hard for them. They aren't $86 per set anymore, either. I think I paid $130 or so? Whatever, still money well spent. I got mine from some shop in Indiana, can't remember the name and couldn't find the receipt the last time I looked.

Did you get the TKC80's? Any pics? Any feedback? I no longer have my SM610, but I'm looking to put these on my WR250X and have been looking for a review on them. I'm not sure if these are too hard of a compound and too heavy for lighter bikes.
 
I haven't gotten them yet, I've been running Pilot Road 3's over the winter so far. It's been mild but wet and too much snow in the woods. It's starting to break up now though, I reckon I'll have them on in a month or so. I need to get another set of wheels :/
