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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125-200cc Fastways and the new 125 frame

If you have one of the the 125s don't bother trying to put Fastways on in the low position. The right one is a major pain to get mounted and once it is one it can barely swing before hitting the rear brake mounting bolt. It seems to work OK in the tall position though.

Also if you do not make some way for it to stop before hitting the brake arm if you crash on the right side it can swing up and break the entire rear brake lever bracket off the frame. Ask me how I know. :banghead:
 
I had a blob welded on the stop to fix that problem. But it is not big enough to work on the new frame now. :banghead:

I may not worry abou it as the peg contacts the brake bolt and the brake lever very close to the bolt. It looks like less of a problem then it was on the older bike.
 
Big fat footpegs that I got to redesign when I worked there.

I discovered that in the high position the left side hits the pin that holds the kick stand spring. I guess I will be running stock pegs on this bike for now.
