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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just got my MXA and the cover shot is the new TC250. Good test of it. Yes, it is basically the KTM but the critical MXA crew actually finds it superior in a few ways. They list all the ways it does differ. They criticize the forks. It's worth a read.:thumbsup:
 
Never mind, my wife wants to go so it'll be an hour and a half...lol. This is exciting. Yeah they're about the same but the new bikes are here! :)
 
There seems to be some worthwhile changes. The plastic subframe is supposed to better then Husabergs. The wheels are better quality (every article about the 250sx discusses the crap wheels). And the power switching the handlebars rather then a plug elsewhere. Has a larger air box. This bike sounds awesome and I have to admit, I liked it as a KTM but love it now :). I know I'm not anywhere nears good enough to ride that bike fast but I'd sure love to try :).

Question: What did Husqvarna do to make the 2014 TC250 competitive?
Answer: they had engineers hold Husqvarna decals two feet apart, and a third engineer rolled a 2014 KTM 250sx between them.
