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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SM 610ie or new SM 630?

I come from a XT660X, which I appreciate most is the engine reliability and low maintenance.
I'm in love with the SM610 for long time, and here in Spain 2009 the last units are cheap. At the same price I found a official dealer
SM630 test unit with 2000km. The doubts I have are almost the same as when I bought the XT two years ago:
How reliable is the SM610 engine for everyday use? Is it a long life engine?
I use the bike in not very sporting riding, would it be better to choose then the SM630? Is it any less maintenance on the 630 to 610?
Thank you very much everyone for your guidance.
 
I ride a '08 SM610 and like it a lot. I bought it new and like that I know how it's been rode and serviced - something you don't always know when buying used. You should test ride both and see what YOU like.
