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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Pictures of your bikes

A couple of pics from a ride yesterday afternoon. It's supposed to be spring here, but you would never know.

There is something about your bike that is mesmerizing to me and I keep looking at it. Nice bike! :thumbsup:

There is someone on TT with the name 'Ride' for instance, and it looks uber clean but at the same time has some miles on it. Nice :cheers:




Might want to feel your swing arm where the mud flap hits it, the ridges on the mud flap can put grooves in the swing arm.
 
Thanks for the comments Coffee on the '08 cr125...I'm so happy that Husky makes this little screamer!!! Thanks for the mud flap tip.,

Cheers....Dennis
 
Here's my bike while on a fantastic surgical adventure in my garage.

For eyeballs to see in the night, I've got a Lynx with an HID low-beam and Halogen high-beam emigrating from Canada.

On the floor in the background, you can see my suspenders which are going in to Stillwell Suspension tomorrow to get a blood transfusion and some new heart valves. I'm also gonna get rid of that coil spring on the Sachs which was spec'd for the 500lb Samsonite gorilla while on vacation with his luggage.

Oh yeah, those are the shelves sitting on the ground that I still need to build in the garage.....I'm not procrastinating, honey, really I'm not.

Here's the cockpit in its first stages of gestation.....I'm going to install some simple accessories on the Lynx dash to make me think I know where I'm going.

Also, I'm getting an HDB system and am looking at another handlebar which I'll put some heated grips on. I like Renthal a lot but the local shop (reputable) is telling me the Pro-Taper I have is better. Dunno......rode the other day and it felt like Vinnie the Hit Man was working my wrists over (too much sweep in the bars). I think a damper is in the works, too. Still waiting on a call back from the vendor.....(cricket). Maybe he forgot to pay his phone bill :busted: .

But here are the coolest accesories I've bought so far. The service and parts manuals. Laser printed and bound, baby. Double-click if you want to biggie size so you can lust over the exquisite spiral-bound edge. Marvel at the crystal clear transparent cover.

Nevermind.....funny the things that excite me now.

Interesting, where did you buy those? Thought only the CD was available?
 
OK.....guilty of slight hyperbole.

I had Kinko's print and bind it so I guess technically it's not an accessory I bought.

I guess I got caught up in the moment.

:D
 
I did the same thing for the workshop manual (well almost, I printed it at home and had Kinko's bind it) but the workshop manual is so large that I don't want to use all my printer ink and Kinko's wants something like $125.00 to do the job.:eek:

I printed mine at work and didnt realize how many pages were in it till I ran out of paper at about 450 pages in. I finally found some paper and figured out how to load the copier and finished it before I got caught. Then I got rid of all the foreign language and hole punched the pages and put them in a big three ring binder.:busted:

:lol: Same here! Got to work about 20 minutes early one morning to get it done, and it took twice that amount of time!

The manuals on CD are nice and all, but my keyboard would be covered in grease by now if I didn't have my KTM and Husky manuals printed on paper. Not to mention I don't carry a laptop with me when we're camping out in the middle of nowhere.

Using company resources that don't belong to you eh? How shameful of you. :eek:


You should have done what I did . . . . stay late when no ones around and then you don't have to worry about getting caught. :lol:
