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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Love it......I know a couple guys I've have to show this to.

I'm not sure I can even move the kick lever full stroke on my TE510 by hand, let alone start it, but did have a '94 Suzuki DR350 that could do the same thing.
Out on trail rides, (prior to e-start being so popular) starting the old DR by hand while sitting on the ground got me several one finger salutes, especially from the Honda riders. (same guys I'm having watch this)
 
I was turning the 510 over slowly with the kicker and it fired. Using my boot, wouldn't do it by hand though... No need to go swinging of it like a thing possesed.
Great video, now where did i leave my beer..... :applause:
