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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

oil leak from top of fork

Noticed after the second moto this afternoon that my TC450 leaked fork oil from the top cap on one side. Can't tell exactly from where it came out.

They are 50mm closed carthridge Marzocchi type. Bike has 35 hrs. Anyone had this happen?
 
mine had some leakage around the red inner chamber cap,I just tightened mine up and was told there had to be air in the sealed chamber because of that,there is a thread showing how to bleed the air out of that chamber
 
Both sides needed to be tightened, i guess its something to keep an eye on. Probably air in them, but they will need new seals at some point and i will send them out for a rebuild at the same time.

thanks
 
makes sure you are releasing the pressure reguraly with the air bleed screw on the fork cap also. I'm sure that didnt cause the leak but it couldnt hurt :thumbsup:
