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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Stator wire grommet

Hiya guys, pickup coil problems after smashing a stator casing.

From fitting a new pickup coil in February and cutting a slit in the grommet for one of the wires to solder it further up after it had snapped and now having to cut a slot for the other wire for the same reason I am finding that the stator wire rubber grommet is letting oil past it.

Not a lot, but I wish to do a track day and the bike won't pass scrutineeing with oil leaking out, even if it is a little bit.

I have looked on parts fiche for the grommet and the section that it should be in just shows the outline with no part number

There is the option of buying a replacement stator from Poland which comes with a pickup coil for £200 which is quite good value for money, but it seems unnecessary just for a $2 piece of rubber.
