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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Nev., do they look identical? I'm kind of in a bind in that my cap worked itself off during a ride and the factory is out of stock 'indefinitely'. If the parts are compatible I can order the F800GS cap, otherwise I'll have to get a bit more creative...

Thank you all for the help, this is a lifesaver. Such a stupid reason to miss almost 2 weeks of riding... I kinda like the ebay one with the metal safety cap, though after this I will probably zip-tie it anyway just to be safe.

It looks like your reservoir may be cracked at the mount. Mine broke there. Right where the tab attaches to the reservoir. A new one was like 8 bucks with cap.

I have a spare cap, pay shipping and it's yours. I may get one of them aluminum ones from feebay for $18. Problem with them is there is no inspection window.

Hi, noob on the Strada tr650 here. Is your still spare cap still available? :)

I changed my brake fluids early on & this has been my experience. I just changed my fluids again, 1 year later, and the fluid was still light/clear.

I changed both my brake fluids to 100% synthetic within the first week of purchasing the TR650
