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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Safety recall Australia - BMW G 650 GS & G 650 GS Sertao

My guess is the Canadian government is making them recall our bikes but not telling them how to do it. Hense the section where it states "Correction: To be determined"

Its better than i expected to see at least there is some light at the end of the tunnel

Advisory details
On certain motorcycles, the engine could stall without warning. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: To be determined.
 
Very pleased to see it, anyone who has not lodged an NHTSA complaint fo it and now refer to the Canadian recall and those who have lodged a report contact NHTSA and let them know to add to the pressure

There is now a press article with regard to the Husky ECU and support problems

That is a great article, and the writer actually got it right. "Since BMW sold Husqvarna to a KTM board member in January 2013..." This is one of the first articles ever where it has been stated correctly. Well actually it was sold to Pierer Industries, owned/run by the KTM board member: Stefan Pierer.


Then there is the second part, something that maybe should be griped about more.

"KTM has also recalled the Freeride 350 Model Year 2012-2016 and Freeride 250 R Model Year 2014-2016 over problems with the tank breather which could expose riders to hazardous fumes and a potential fire risk."

A few TR650 owners have experienced gas in the face or similar, from a faulty check valve.
