I believe Ray served this fine country as well and thank you both. In the future if there is topic drift just hit the report button and report it, no reason to get personal and call names.

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

I'm over it and Ray did serve this Country, you're right.. Thank You.
Here's a drift off topic, Hey Kelly, just referred a Buddy your way today at work, for a Lectron to fit a 2003 WR450F Yamaha. His Brother has a 2006 CRF 450R fitted to run lights. May want a set up also. His buddy too.
I ride with Japanese bikes every time I go out. They just happen to have some issues that I can help them with. They always drool over my bikes. Their bikes also overheat and do a little drooling themselves going up the washes and ditches trying to keep up on the rocky ravines I lead them into. I expect them to switch to Evans ZF Coolant soon and refer them to ZipTY for that stuff regularly. I pulled my radiator cap on Saturday riding with these guys while my fan was still running and didn't spill a drop while their bikes were overflowing. They couldn't believe it.
I am also in contact with a new Buddy from another Site and on here as well, that just picked his bike up last Monday after a complete overhaul at ZipTy. Its a G450X and was the first of its kind in ZipTys shop ever. ZipTy did a fantastic job on a full bike assembly after a full engine rebuild, big bore kit, head work, missing parts and got it going from a basket case status after I referred him to those guys. He's breaking it in right now.
Even though we may not all agree on some things. We may all agree on more things then you may think. Things are not always as they appear.
Keep the interesting technical information flowing. I like it. I'm always open to learn something new. I'm always open to share that information as well. Especially if it can help someone else.

When I picked up my bike (a 2012 TE310 CH) from CH-Racing in February this year, Fabrizio (owner of CH and Team Manager for EWC) told me that they had problems with broken frames before 2012. They had to make modifications to the frames with extra weldings etc. From 2012 on they have been using stock ones...
