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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

New 1st over-bore and lots of suspension and bearing tweaking just done.
Still need to clean up the jetting and new clutch plates.
Very nice. Where did you get those old "Can-am riding boots?old76cr;26770 said:This is my mostly original 76cr. New fenders, plates, ignition, decals. Picked up some original bars, cables and lever covers on ebay that are not shown in this pic.
How many hours do you think you have in her? I think my friend back in High school bought one of them new. It use to give my Can-an a "Run for its money"flamepainter78;27440 said:almost done it needs chain,oil and gas and lots of adjustment

Came with the bike. Got a rough 77 qualifier I am restoring to look like a 76 Off road. Always preferred the white tankers .![]()
