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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Lots of great discussion!!

Well, I guess I just need to decide on the plastic one or the P3. I want the P3, but it's hard to justify the cost over the plastic one. I still think that Thermo-Tec deal would suffice. It SHOULD hold up better than header wrap.
 
Ive got the uptite on mine and it seems to work well. I also have the matching skid plate. He seems to make good products. They are probally more functional than pretty but thats what I go for.
 
i used the LAVA wrap, works great! i've had it on my other bikes for quite some time now with no problems, and the wrap is still on, never changed it! you just have to take your time putting it on, soak it before you install it and wrap it TIGHT!

What do you soak it with? And how easy does mud come off of it ?

You soak it in water before you put it on! you do that with all exhaust wrap, except color wraps cause all the color would bleed out. i can't say anything about the mud cause i've never taken my smr in mud and my other bikes are all street bikes. but the wrap is cheap, if you wanted to try it. its about $30.00 for 50feet of the wrap which is more then enough to wrap your whole exhaust on 4 bikes!

I ran the motosportz mid guard for one race and it didnt fit very well on my 250,it defintetly kept my pants fron burning,but everytime my leg went back over the rear side panel it got hooked and bent the metal guard forward,eventually loosening up the subframe bolt that holds everything together,I then bought the plastic guard from husky sport and it fit great kept the pants from burning as well,but the same thing kept happening with it flipping forward once i hit it with my swinging leg,but I was able to fix that by modifying it with a ziptye through the guard and into the side panel holding it tight,end of problem and it looks fine and has never moved
