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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Boiling gas

During a 5 day camp/ride, i had an issue with the gas in my tank boiling. I made a nasty hill climb 3 times back to back. Temps were in the mid 90's in north eastern washington. After i got to the top the 3rd time i heard a little bubbling coming from between my legs. Vent could not vent the boiling gas fast enough. Took the gas lid off and air rushed out. Took a while for the gas to stop boiling, and did not have the issue again during the trip. This is the 2nd time this has happened to me. Both times were in the same weather conditions. First time was in some tight woods riding. I think i am going to get some heat shield for the section of the tank that is above the exhaust, and wrap the back half of the header. Has anyone else had this issue?
