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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Moose Racing Side Mounts

Just finished installing the Moose Racing Side Case Mounts.
Overall, I really like them. VERY strong, fit my Wolfman Expedition bags very well and look pretty good. I installed with a Nomadic Cycle rear rack.

My only complaint was that the fit was not that great. Right side fit well, left side took a lot of persuasion.
The rack was designed to work with a stock rear rack, which I replaced with the Nomadic Rack. First thing I had to do was space for the removed rear rack. Fortunately between the 2 kits, I had the spacers.

Installed the spacers, used the rack spacers to get the correct height.

The left side was about 3/8 inch off (in below pic, look at where the spacer sits)

After much bending, I got the rack into position.

The Nomadic Rack then mounted on top. I had to get some longer bolts (Thank You McMaster Carr) Kit fasteners on left side

A 1/4 spacer for the back, the rack fit beautifully.
For the rear brace, it did not fit with my R&G Tail tidy, so I had to make some brackets to drop it down.

Link, I'm such a newbie at all this so I have to ask, Where do you suggest I look to find the side mount racks? I plan on using soft sidecases .. Wolfman or other. Also, what's the manufacture / distributor of the windshield you have mounted? Looks Good!

25yrWait,
The racks I got from Revzilla (http://www.revzilla.com/adv-sport-touring-gear), good prices & great service.
The windshield I got from Madstad (http://www.madstad.com/s.nl/sc.7/category.11365/.f) Put a lot of screens on Harley's, this one is by far one of the best screens I have ever installed. Plus it works! And looks good!
 
We have the same set up - nomadic rear rack and Moose racing. Mine also required a lot of bending and longer bolts.
