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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Due to popular demand - here is Super Moto...

I have started transforming the 2011 TE630 I picked up from Halls last weekend into my permanent Motard. Got the Warp9 wheels originally purchased for my TE310R on the bike. I had to swap the 220mm rotor from the 630 onto the rear wheel. When I mounted the front wheel, I realized the caliper bracket I had for the 310R wouldn't work on the 630. Called Warp9, they have the correct one in the mail. FMF Powercore will be here today and will go on this weekend. I plan to try it out next week and then decide if I need more juice. If so, PCV will be next. I am chomping at the bit to ride this thing! TE630 MOTARD.JPG
 
Saw a pretty nice 250 Motard in the back of a guys truck in Downtown Coronado, CA today. Why it was in the back of a truck and not shredding the streets I have no idea.
 
So, I'm converting my old left kicker with Honda wheels :)

My old CCM 644DS was getting a bit long in the tooth, so I got myself a Husky 630SM. Can´t complain ... only that it´s too HEAVY and not as agile as the CCM. I only use it for longer commutes and spend more time on the CCM. So invested (heavily) on refurbing the old CCM Suzuky single pot motor, new brake discs, suspension refurbed etc. and would sell the Husky in a wink if CCM pulled it´s thumb out and put one of their 449 engines in their existing bonded frame and offered it as a motard. Only wish I´d got myself a Husky 449 motard at the time. Riding the CCM AND the Husky 630 almost every day, the comparison is devastating, showing how much better CCM designed their DS. Like the difference between a butcher´s dog and a fast elephant.

Londin - Can you point me in the direction of where you obtained your two catch cans - overflow for fuel and the black one at the front (guessing coolant or oil catch can). Both look very nice. Cheers

Coolant: Front one for the coolant is a drink bottle - can be bought in any store almost!
Fuel: Rear one is for fuel - custom made.
Oil: Not on photo but i have the ZipTy one
