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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
No one loves Motosportz any more? Tossed to the side for the new guys in town. No one thinks our big embossed ribs side to side for side impact damage is good? No one likes the frontal protection for roost and sticks? No one likes the EZ to maintain and spiffy looking powder coat? No one cares that we were here with support when no one else was? I have not damaged a radiator since 04 when I started running our guards... but no one seems to care about the guys who have been here supporting all along.

Of course the ? is Strongest....Not sure who makes those.
I actually went with the Motosportz ones. I actually had a really hard drop one day when I came around a corner in 3rd gear and hit a patch of ground that was still frozen(riding early this spring and I live in northern PA) and had the whole bike wash out right from under me and I and the bike hit the ground hard,I thought for sure it would of bent the rad but it didn't. I was surprised to say the least that they held up to that. Just this last weekend I over shot a turn and ended up landing with a tree right in between the tank shroud and the frame, and no damage was done at all. The tree is also what stopped me from about 10 mph. I've been very happy with them so far and would recommend them to anybody. As far as the cooling factor goes,,,I just zip tied the stock rad shrouds onto the rad braces and haven't had a problem with anything getting warm yet. Good product KellyDieselox4;25389 said:
