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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Dirtbagz or Wolfman Expedition Panniers? Help Me Decide!

I am wanting to know if the dirt Bagz setup works with the stock Husky rack on the 630?
Sure - you can route the rear strap over or under a rack. I had the Dirtbagz on my 610 with the oem rack, and it fits close to the fender. I have a Moose folding toolpack on my 630, and originally had the rear strap underneath it, but to make it easier to R&R the Dirtbagz - I run the strap over it.
 
I was [am] only concerned with how they attach, do they share mounting bolts ? I would not have them mounted 90% of the time as I do mostly day/ single track expeditions.
 
LA Bike Show... Dirtbagz brought their stuff from CO for the show.
Special: $219 for the Ranger Package, no tax, no ship. Cinched the deal. :thumbsup::applause:
 
Talked to Berg today, and the racks are being powder coated. I ordered my racks while I was at it, along with some of the Rotopax mounting plates so I can carry extra fuel until I spring for the Safari tank.
