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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Got a SWM? Interested in some free stuff?

I have one, however since I am geographically impossible please just send me the goodies.
By the way. I would like to discover if the latest "Enduro" versions windscreen, lower crash bars and larger fuel tank will fit a 650 R (which by the way is an excellent bit of kit).

Me too, Australia might be too far for you but...........perhaps I could cover postage??
I'm on an RS500R. Would love to test and report on your products....please.
 
Good news. We were contacted by someone with a SWM that was willing to test fit some of our products to see if they would cross fit with the new SWM's. We shipped radiator braces with guards, front and rear disc guards. He reported that everything fit his SWM 500. I'll let him chime in if he chooses. We'll get some pics to put up in a bit.

Guilty.
I must say these products are top quality and beautifully crafted. There was no modification required to ANY of these products to fit them.

The grey colour of the rear disc guard supplied matches perfectly with the factory grey wheel hubs and would be the colour of choice, in my opinion. It replaces the original caliper carrier assembly and locates in the swingarm slide section perfectly. This helps to hold it in place when removing /refitting the rear wheel.

The front disc guard came in the original alloy colour which does camouflage it on the bike a bit. I don't mind that, after all it is a guard not a fashion statement, plus being this colour it won't show the marks and scratches from impacts.

The radiator braces fitted straight up, no bending or filing required (not always the case with other brands). They don't foul on any of the plastics, they even come pre-drilled and with the required fasteners, for the factory fitted cooling fan to be bolted up. I chose to remove the plastic, frame mounted clip that SWM use to secure the wiring loom where it runs past the left side radiator. By doing this I was able to lift the loom slightly, giving more clearance between the loom and the radiator / radiator brace.

All these products are easily fitted, look great and will certainly do what they're designed for. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

As a side note, I had the bike back to the dealer for an ecu remap. He commented on the guards, wanting to know where I got them and how easy they were to fit, as he was interested in fitting some to a bike for his showroom.

I'd like to say thank you to colo moto for the opportunity to try some of his products, a very generous offer indeed.

Hey Clay , we have an RS300R and 2) RS500Rs at our California warehouse if you want to try fitment without having to travel world wide to do it. We are also expecting a RS650SD in September for EPA/CARB/DOT testing. We would be happy to let you have access to the bikes by appointment or we can verify fitment and return or pay for items that you want to supply.
Contact Pete Vetrano, 760-949-0941 @ Moto Man Distributing: info@motomandist.com: www.motomandistributing.com: Yes, the email address and the website address do not match! SMH !

Thanks Danny, but we have already verified fitment with a few riders. Unfortunately at the moment SWM seems to only be producing about 12 bikes a year so we have lost interest in producing anything for these bikes.
