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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st Anybody running a yzf front fender?

If i were to do this, would also get the cycra yz front number plate, it will complement the fender better.
 
I ordered my YZF fender yesterday from Rocky Mountain ATV. I'll post pictures next week ('08 WR250)...
 
Inklax - Did you get the red "H" decal on your new fender from the Husqvarna dealer? I had a couple of extra because they were thick and well made. At the moment, I can't find them...

The 449/511 fender looks cool too IMHO. Maybe not for everyone but makes a bike look more modern to me. this is my 04 CR125/165

is this a fender and number plate combo? If not, how much does the fender only go for? How hard to install , love my 04
 
OK, I went with the Cycra brand. Had to drill 2 holes and take a little heat to the back side so it wouldn't rub the frame and radiator guards. After the photo, I added the red "H" to the tip. The fender shape and lines match the bike better IMO.

looks good. Do you have a different seat on there than stock or is it cut down some? also the hand holes to pick the bike up look bigger than on my 310.
 
Connor - I'm running the stock seat. I think my fender photo was at a strange angle. Here's a side shot...

Both the fender and number plate from a TC/TXC 449/511. Kinda need to run the number plate too because it mounts higher due to the fender. Was quite inexpensive from Bills. Can't remember but was inexpensive.
 
Wooo that just occured to me that the sprockets are on the right side of the bike? i never noticed that before. :eek:
 
My Pipe Guard is a 'Hyde'. It comes as one big ugly unit that includes the skid plate. I cut out the mid section between the pipe and the plate. You can clean up the rough edges with a box knife and even buzz the edges with a torch to give it a smooth finish. IMO, it is much better than carbon fiber. The Hyde unit has a little 'flex' so on impact you're not bending the pipe up at the head.

Pretty happy with how it looks in black. Rear two holes were perfect, just drilled new front ones to suit and fits like it was made for it. Doesnt rub, even with the radiator guards. The best thing but? I loved the X2 headlight when I saw pics of it on the net (on other bikes, KTMs ect.) but once I got mine installed, I thought it looked terrible on my bike. After the fender swap it now looks great IMO, I think it just didn't match the 1983 style husky fender.

Woooh! Looks awesome! :applause:
 
I installed a YZ fender a couple months ago, after smashing mine into a tree. I recently installed a tool bag on my front fender and it flops around like a wet noodle. Anyone figure out a brace for the YZ fender?
