Looking for pictures of 80-82 PC or Grossi's Husky's. Can't seem to find anything "surfing around". Thanks in advance, Scott

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Just a thought, I wonder what it would take to get ProCircuit to produce another run of Pipes for our Bikes....

Good question! I got lucky and have ones on my 82 CR250, 82 250XC and 82 430XC. Didn't realize the first one, CR250, was one untill I compared it to my other CR that has stock pipe. 84 500 I had also had one but I modified it to fit a 82 chassis and sold it. Comparing them to stock pipes they aren't much different. I wonder if some of the aftermarket pipes for them now are a more current design, better? I got the 430 pipe on a one owner bike. He said he didnt notice much if any performance gains. He gave me all the records with the bike and that pipe was $175 in 83- ouch! I have a new Vintage Iron pipe for my 430 but haven't tried it yet. Going to put it on when it needs freshend up.
