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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SWM is back

Looks like a KTM inspired frame and suspension and a big tank. Unique and cool look (the black one) Good stuff! I really would like to try one. Much more inspired than I was.
 
Good to see this - looks like an Italian Husky/KTM mongrel
Red frame looks wrong - if it was black it would look better
Frame under engine looks a bit weak
Silver ? a bit Star Wars for me

Looks like they fixed the exposed oil line issue
 
I heard there is no button on the 340 ? that's a big mistake
Maybe that was just the MX version

Keihen injection system ?

Looks like a real starter mechanism on the left side... (little red cover above the stator)
It's on the mx bike too
 
Does anyone else think the pipe is mounted too far to the back of the bike? Looks 100mm too far back to me. Akro for fmf ya reckon?
 
frame, its quite possible that KTM (WP) makes it along with that signature swingarm, all the EU companies subcontract among manufacturers, controls-Magura, Domino etc, Suspension Sachs Ohlins etc.
This is EICMA, the production race version machines may well be different looking (color wise), those are the enduros (99%street use) that most folks never take offroad that buzz all over around there and are the big sellers for profit. Its a good thing they are doing, no need to reinvent the wheel , just build on what's already there (engineering wise) and find cost effective ways to produce a new line of motos.

Black gets trashed after the first good offroad ride. My buddy switched all his 350EXC plastics including a 4 gal Acerbis tank to black and regrets it. What really surprised me was how easy it was to maintain the color of a white bike.
