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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

anyone have a good way of mounting the black side covers to the bottom of the red tank covers,

mine just seem to slip out, curve up and stop my knee from moving up and down with the bike.

anyone else had this issue, i just been riding with out them, but would rather have them on
 
Drill a hole through the red shroud and the black shroud where they overlap then bolt them together. Use a dome shaped bolt (so you're pants don't get caught on it) and nyloc nut,
 
Throw the lower shrouds on the shelf and don't worry about it :lol: I haven't had them on my WR in years as they always seemed to break on me. I just zip tied the shrouds to my radiator guards so they didn't flop around.
 
Similar situation when fitting SWM lower shrouds with husky model IMS fuel tank. The lower shrouds have nowhere to attach and don't slip in behind the upper shrouds like the husky ones do. So what I did was drill 2 small holes in the shroud, feed a cable tie through and tie it to the radiator guards. Looks a bit average but very effective.
 
thanks for the input guys,

ill see what i can come up with through the week and post up,, or just leave them to i sell it,haha
