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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Seems like the majority of people on ADV like the Continental TKC80 for what your describing...

The MT60's are fine if you're riding dry hardpack or mellow dirt/gravel roads. They don't do so hot in mud and sand, but are outstanding in rocks...very sticky. I've put quite a few miles on them in the dirt and on pavement on my SM610. Air them up a little bit and they stick like glue on pavement. They are expensive and they disappear quickly, though. I wasn't too thrilled with the compromise so now I run knobbies in the dirt (Metzeler Karoo rear and Pirelli MT21 front) and my sticky Pirelli Diablos on the street.

That's the tire of choice over at SMJ....which is maybe why it's out of stock at the US....
