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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Longer Clutch Cable

Any one find a longer clutch cable for our bikes? The cable was tight before I added risers,now its
definitely at its limits.
 
Can you not rethread/relocate it? How much height did you end up with? I went a full 2in with Rox Risers and was good with a re-thread.
 
I did reroute and adjust the threading. Still not really happy with it. It works with no issues, but I would definitely replace it with longer cable if I could.
 
I moved my cable to left side routing. Plenty of room for two inch risers and back two inches.

Since taking these pictures I have added HDB hand guards, everything works fine with plenty of room I did have to remove the bolt that that affixed the front brake line to the right rear of the cowling and relocate it as well.
 
DRZ Charlie,

Thanks for posting the pics. I had rerouted it before using a clamp on the radiator mount. However, using your routing is much better with no binding at the limits of travel turning the bars.
 
Any chance you could repost the photos of the clutch cable rerouting? Thanks.
