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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Kymco

Another funky looking little bike I see here ... I'm guessing about $1K in cost ...

It's really small ... I actually straddled it but could not bring myself to sit down on it ... It felt and looked so weird from my Huskies, it just was not for me.

what size engine is that? I have not seen those around here? The smaller Artic Cat four wheelers are made by Kymco I believe. Not bad quality. But around here they cost almost the same as a mainstream brand.... In a sick way I like it....LOL
 
125cc engine ... Apparently the Asian world runs on 125 - 150cc engines ...

Kymco makes ~570K bikes a year I was reading ... They split off from Honda back in the 70s ... The company is Taiwanese and has a very good REP in their segment of the market.

That is an unusual looking bike with that frame and SA ...
 
Kymco is a very good company turning out good stuff. Looks like this is Honda Grom type bike which is actually kinda popular here.

I was told by a Kawasaki dealer that many of the Kaw 4-wheelers are built by Kymco and looking at them that day they looked identical. The Kawasaki's were more expensive but according to the salesman they are the same minus decals/colors. I asked how reliable they were and he said "very". btw that Grom thing looks fun.
 
I would ride one of those kymco's. Probably similar in size to a CBR125. The motor looks like one of those 125 Chinese pit bike motors, which isn't a terrible thing.
