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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I had good results with the Wolfman Enduro duffel bag on the back of the 630's with out a rack. I used some 1"x18" soft-tyes handlebar straps and looped them under the seat and rear grab rails. The bags stayed put over 150 or so dirt miles. Cheap and durable. photo (2).JPG

:)That's me standing next to my 630 with the stock Metzeler Karoos on. XLEnduroMan just put a set of 606s on his 630 and I have a set waiting to go on when the Karoos bite the dust. The bag set up was Great, stayed put didn't move a bit and I didn't have to give it a second thought. It was wonderful.
 
OH! i took the Karoos off after 50 miles and sliping around real bad in some gravel and grass. I forgot what they looked like.
