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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Nice! I like the black powder coated frame and swingarm
I'm surprised he uses the air forks. On the honda he swapped them for an older set of forks

The black frame does look much better than the shiny ones that stick out so badly ..
I was surprised also after all the bad news on them last yr in SX from so many different riders ... Someone will get them right, some yr and that wrong-spring issue will be eliminated ... Of course, we'll probably trade that fix for some other ill side-effect. And the beat goes on ...

With the success the 250 and 450 Kawis' have, looks like any young racer would have to consider a green bike first ..

At the 2:23 mark, this guy says they are leasing the factory hubs from Kawi ... These business deals might be a little more complex than we are aware of ..
They are playing white into the bike (seat, radiator hoses) also and dropping the green color a little as compared to the past bikes ...
