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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Big announcement for me - AJP motorcycles

Kinda but the bike has way more ability than you might think. I pick it over my other bikes to ride now. It is so freaking easy to ride and I'm as fast or faster on it than anything I own in the woods. I will be racing it a few times this year and expect to do well on it.

Are you riding the aircooled model or the liquid cooled one? Racing I mean.

Water cooled 250. EFI, 6 speed, E-start. Has some of the best stock suspension I have ever used. Handles great and is very easy on the pilot. Will be a great long distance race bike like for the 2 day Idaho ISDE I plan to race it at. Dont feel I will be at a disadvantage at all, quite the opposite. No excuses needed or made. :cheers:

The AJP PR5 continues to impress me. The Doma pipe give it crazy good low end. We climbed some triple black diamond stuff yesterday. I was the only one to make it up a really gnarly hill. Super steep, littered with babyhead rocks, long and very little traction.

here is some other gnar we did...

Could not make this one without fear of lopping and causing a lot of damage...

yes it is a triple black diamond trail for jeeps. It was semi gnarly before but they added a bunch of those rocks and traffic beariors to make it more fun :D Now its more obvious why a trials tire works well here huh?
 
I want to go up there with a beat bike I don't care about and try and rail it up that. I tried to get Blake to race me up it but was not having any of that. It beat us both pretty good the first time.
 
Listed at 37.4 but the bike is narrow and softly suspended and feels low. Makes other bikes feel huge to me now. A joy in the trees.
