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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey guys.

Took my TE510 out for it's first real ride up at Ginger Cr. this weekend. The bike performed great, although I came home minus the foot brake pedal tip. I didn't realize how much I relied on that little piece until I started dropping down hills without it. The lever is fine, it just looks like the tip sheared off at some point-- probably when I dropped into one of the many ruts.

Can I buy a replacement tip anywhere, or do I need to buy an entire pedal?


EDIT: Looks like I'm not the first. Here's a thread over at TT in regards to this issue: http://www.dirtbikeworld.net/forum/archive/index.php/t-56795.html
 
George (Uptite...1 714 540-2920) was working on these and I believe has some stuff ready to go. He's racing in Mexico and won't be back till maybe Wed..5/3. I saw the levers and tips he had so I'm pretty sure he can fulfill.
 
I bought one from Zip-Ty racing http://www.ziptyracing.com/products/product_detail.aspx?id=MTc4Ng==

Cool,

Thanks for all of the replies; I should have waited for more options before making an on- line purchase.

I'll now have a KTM tip made for a 250exc on my bike. For 8 bucks, I'm not sure how well it will hold up, so I'll re- visit this thread if I break another.
