     WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st Please post pictures of your 2 stroke bikes.

My '98 with newer plastics. Its a little rough but its only cosmetics. The engine has had a full rebuild and the suspension is next to get looked at. Any advice? Should I just rebuild or replace with newer kit? Cant wait to get out and use it on the weekend.

My 2010 Husqvarna CR 125. I still can't decide if I like the new front fender or not. Just put it on today.

I'm not sure either, but I think it looks better there than it does on the 449 / 511. I kind'a like it, (thought about trying one on my 300) but it's still a rather odd fender.
 
This is my 1980 390 CR. This bike was a mess when I got it back from a friend. I need to rebuild the rear shocks and some other plastic parts. At this point I'm trying to get it up and running so I can ride with my son.

This is my 2010 Husqvarna SMS 125 with new Marzocchi Shiver 45 forks and new shock-absorber. Other changes coming soon... ;)

The thing that bugs me the most is that it looks like about 10kg of mud could pile up there.

The 449 has that on both ends, so it looks like it could carry about 20kg of mud, and you'd have to dig to find the gas cap.

I guess they've been so busy designing street bikes they forgot we ride these things in the mud. :lol:
