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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Check out my ridonkulous forks and shock...

Those are so very trick, but 3500 puts you pretty close to Ohlins prices.

I really have no idea what the actual cost would be just that it would be expensive. Again, way more than necessary for a 45 YO trail rider. :doh:

Those new Ohlins shocks are the poop. :thumbsup:

Good looking stuff. Those spring bearing are the way to go. Do they have them in the fork, too?
 
Just looked again, super sick. I'd have the triple clamps wedged so far apart that you could get a Chipotle burrito through 'em.

never had an issue with the sachs on any of my MANY huskys. My buddy did have an issue with his on his GasGas though. Interesting. At this point everything is working magically so I'm not touching it.
 
the bladder mod is a good one especially for the trail hack, had a Factory Connection bladder kit on my last 250 Kato and on my 04 TC450, very smooth action on rocks/roots and stutter bumps, its a good shock mod option.
 
Cool stuff. Too bad I never spend money on suspension, other than correct spring rates. I've always managed to get stuff working ok, with oil, oil volume and turning the clickers. But I'm not a pro either. (And I don't spend money on motor mods either. The bikes today are way better than me).
 
Ordered one of the shock spring cups today. Can't wait to try it.

How's it holding up again mud?

I think I'm going to order a WER bladder kit in the morning, too.
