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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE610 AND a TE250 necessary?

My vote is, yes, get a 250 if you want to trail ride. It's a fun bike that's street legal, lighter than the Yamaha 250 and more powerful. A different thought to consider- If you're unsure about a small bore why not buy used? Save a bit of $$ and dump it if you don't like it. Great price on the new one but...
 
I am putting this purchase on hold for now. I will see where I sit next year this time and there are leftovers then as well. I doubt I could get a used 250 any cheaper than this new 09 also. Hoping I get to ride one of these models in the coming year to help make up my mind.

Thanks

Bad decision! There is absolutely no reason not to experience the wonderful feeling of weaving between trees, accelerating up hills, bull dogging down hills, hitting rocks in the creek beds & then sliding on green covered slate sideways & saving a highside when it gets traction. Banging your head [protected of course] on a low hanging branch & knocking your glasses off to kingdom come where you need glasses to find your glasses:eek: Wait a minute, I'm suppose to be persuading you to get in the woods:D See what you will be missing. Get the 250, you will not regret it, period:)
 
HAHAHA! Yeah I want one, but realistically I need to slow down buying toys and get some miles on the 610 before I can justify another new bike. I will keep my eyes peeled for a used one, but doubt anyone can beat that price
