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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Magura clutch

Hello HuskynXJnWI + others,

Thank you for the helpful hydro clutch info contained in this thread. It has been a few more weeks since you completed the Hymec 167+ new slave cly +piston and x rings. Is you clutch still performing great?

I ask because I am considering the purchase of an Oberon slave and Hymec 167 master as my bike with slightly flakey clutch is a 2005 TE with stock slave + uptite x ring and slowly drooling stock master. It's overdue for some Re and RE.

The X ring change was done 3-4 years ago but the bore looked perfect at that time. Like others the master seems to have leaked (slowly) forever.

Thanks,
Bugs
The oberon slave is a good unit. Plus you can get anodised so its nice bling.

Did anyone ever find out about a Brembo conversion?

I just bought a new-to-me 2010 510SMR with 1058mi on it, and at 1064mi the Magura Master blew out and locked up, wouldn't engage/disengage, etc. I know you can get a rebuild kit, but after reading this and other threads I'm thinking that an Oberon + Brembo Master might be the only real way to fix the issue long-term, but that's pricey (and won't get me riding this weekend)...

For now, I'll be lucky if I can get a rebuild kit in time and hope the slave is holding up just so I can actually RIDE the thing I drove ~4hrs to get ;)
