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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

It's OK to look at craigslist sometimes...

Just for the record I had a 1968 350 Big Bear in college. Great bike! As I recall it was rated 110mph on the highway(it was more of a street bike/cafe racer). I took it off road in the Rockies outside of Boulder and it has to be the heaviest off road bike ever made but it had a lot of kick. My mechanic called it a Yamasuki since he insisted it had Suzuki forks (I don't think so). Easy engine to rebuild.
 
I had a GT550 3 cylinder 2 smoke last year but did not care for it. Doubled my money on the sale though. I don't buy used stuff unless I come out ahead in the end (good deals)

Had one of those. Fun bike.
 
my high school and beyond bike was the Gold GT250 Suzuki 2 cylinder 2 stroke oil injected machine. The old 2 T street bikes are super cool. Kaw triples are a real fave.
