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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rad Guards are the go.

We don't have any plans to produce black braces or guards anytime soon, but we will be sending a bunch of parts to the anodizers in the next week or so to be anodized black. It would be possible to include a set of braces or guards in that shipment. This would be a one time kinda thing since we just happen to be doing some other parts in black. Let me know if this interests you at all. Cost would be the same as the anodized red option on our website. Thanks.

Thanks. I may be interested. Do you have to remove or drain the radiators to install them, or do they just bolt right up?

You do have to remove them to install. It makes it a little less messy to drain the coolant. This is the same with almost all brands of radiator braces.
 
do you have a red brace and guard in stock for the 630 ?

We have the red braces in stock, but not the red guards. We will be sending out a batch of guards to be anodized in the next 2-3 days, so we will have red guards and braces in stock in about 2 weeks.

Picked them up at the post office today, Thanks !
 
Do these work with the new xlite redheads with the new reinforced radiators? (13 txc310r)
Also can i get them to work with the original louvers?
 
Yes, many customers w 2013 x-lites running our braces. The braces by themselves are designed to work w the stock plastic louvers. Add the optional guards if you want more protection from roost and branches.
 
Rad braces and guards for the 449/511 models are in stock again. Right now only the brushed aluminum is in stock. Red anodized in about 2 weeks. We made a smallish run of these this time since I'm not sure how long they will continue to sell. We will discontinue making these at some point though. That all depends on how they move. So if you're thinking you would like a set don't put it off too long.
