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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Please list common mods for TE449/511

Ok, so has anyone installed the Cycra Probend CRM's on a 449? Got them on loosely atm, but having a helluva time getting the clamps to correctly align with the guard bar. Did anyone have to torch and bend them at all? Bigger pain in the ass than I was hoping for, lol.
 
Here's a pic of how they held up after a head-on with the truck in the picture (not a scratch):

Yep, I have the spacers. Got the complete kit too. so the spacers are the answer! Thanks!

EDIT: Ok, that was much, much easier. Hah! Got them right on, no problems.

Thanks, Cosmokenney!
 
Had to do a double take on your bike , I thought it was mine, but your rear tyre made my decision. What a great looking bike much like mine.

I ended up buying those Acerbis fork guards because the stock one broke after the first impact in cold-ish weather. The local bike shop didn't have black so I went with white, and actually like it better. I'm considering doing the same on my WR. Did the same waffling about the brush guards. Couldn't decide between red, black or white. It's too hard to match that husky red, so that made the decision easy. BTW, that MT43 is now my go to dual sport tire.
