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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Dumb 610 airbox question

This is probably a dumb question, but with the airbox open to the filter at the bottom how do you wash your bike and not soak the filter? Is there a cover I can purchase or just use good old duct tape each time?
 
I have ran bikes through streams before and had to dry them out because they sucked water into the engine through the airbox. Spraying water right onto the filter just seems wrong to me lol.
 
I try to wash the bike by spraying around the airbox, not in it. That said, I think the aibpox is reasonably designed for handling water. Or at least Ive not found any problems with it so far

Stupid design - that is why they changed it on the 630 ... but still suspect construction imo.
