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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

rekluse for desert

Questions for you good people:

I have an 06 TE510. When almost new, I installed a rekluse and the LHRB. I ride mostly up in the sierras -- forest service roads, occasional rutty 4x4 roads or a bit worse, as well as some serious road/highway connections between dirt bits. I'm in an infrequent dirt rider of modest ability. While I probably don't "need" the set-up, I've really come to love it. It has been problem free to me for about 2500 miles.

I'm going to baja (trip to the tip) in December. It seems that rekluse setups are not too common for desert riding. But I have one installed already. Is there reason to think that the rekluse set-up is asking for trouble in baja riding conditions? I would think not, based on my experience to date. But I don't want to take unnecessary risks on this trip.

Thanks for any thoughts/suggestions. Ed

Sand creates more heat on the clutch and then you add a clutch that it's design is to slip will create even more heat. If you set it up for sand you should not have a problem with it. The clutch should engauge at a lower RPM for sand.
