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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rode up near lake tahoe on sunday. Fire roads for days!

Just thought I would share,

The video is kind of boring but my go pro died early on, plus was aimed poorly or not turned on 80% of the time.


BUT! It was an awesome ride, unfortunately broke a spoke nipple on my warp 9 wheels and had to cut it off to ride.

Dirt roads about 1:30 mark.

 
Well....it cracked in half horizontally actually.

They are sending me a couple spokes and nipples in case more are damaged.

Warp 9 had never seen that before either :)
 
How many guys actually take those wheels off road? Most I see look like they are allergic to dirt.

All kidding aside, street meats on the trail can be sketchy. My Electra Glide gets weird on off camber logging roads too.
 
I think I am going to try some pilot road 4 trail tires.

The roads get damp here in norcal in the winter (lets face it, it never actually rains) and I am thinking the sipes on the front tire will make it do much better offroad.

I never take mine offroad until I joined Sacramento Supermoto facebook page and now I am jumping in on their rides and they find fire trails up past folsom/lake tahoe area. My bike is perfect on the fire roads, the 17's squirm but it is lowered 1.5" plus the seat is shaved and the 17's lower it.....it could fly dirt track style :)
