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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SF bay area dual exhaust?

Is there anybody in the SF bay area that has the dual exhaust on their bike? I want to mount one of the Tour Tube fuel bottles (tourtank.com) on the right side of my '08 TE. The plan is to match the look of the left side exhaust.

Before I get too far into this project I want to look at the mount point on the sub-frame and the right side number plate, etc, of the dual can bikes. I'd like to use as many OEM parts as possible.

If anybody has info or can send detail pictures of their dual-can exhaust, that would be helpful as well.

Thanks -MB
 
Those Tour Tubes as a side tank sounds awesome. What a great idea, setting it up like a twin pipe SMR. Please take/post some pics of the mod.
 
The dimensions of the Arrow exhaust-can are almost exactly the same as the 4X20" (1 US Gal.) Tour Tube. Even the filler tube is canted at an angle like the exhaust tip. It should look good. Mounting is going to be a challenge though. The tube when full will be 10+ Lbs (4.5 Kg) so the mounts will have to be substantial.

I'll post up installation pictures when available.
 
Excellent idea, fuel is an issue on my SMR and I've tried to think up similar solutions. The internal dimensions of the SMR dual can is APPROX 13" long by 3 1/4" opening at the widest point. Hope this helps with your plans
