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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

The "Nuda" we can get...

their in australia my dealer is test rideing next week hes geting an r model demo ive told him to get one for me red/white or black:thinking:
 
Kinda hard to grow a brand by making new bikes and not shipping them to one of the largest bike markets in the world. :excuseme:
 
LoL...that's alright, we'll be the guinea pigs for the first generation model before BMW releases it to the States as a 2nd generation bug free model :thumbsup: ...that's if it sells in Australia

The Germans do NOT rush to fix issues. Delaying a bike a year won't solve much of anything. It sure didn't with my F800GS.

Not seen that or heard that. Local dealer Bills has both on the floor. Several of each last time i was there and piles of 125's too.

Husky is doing good IMHO. Mini's have been long gone for a while, not sure whats up but it is logistics and legal issues I am sure. The Nuda they said from the get go was not coming to the US. Bikes like that might not sell well and jumping through the hoops to get it 50 state legal makes it not an attractive proposition is my guess. Husky parts come super fast now and seem to be in stock well. Things are improving all the time. MV sucked husky dry and sold it, BMW is rescuing it, things look good. IMHO

It's not the 125's. Iv'e heard and read the 125's are here to stay for sure. All I heard is (will not say from who) They got there few 250's and 300's, however they have been told they will be on a very limited basis. I'm not sure the reason or if it is 100% true or not. Probably is legal issues with the mini's and your probably right the jumping thru the hoops for the Nuda may make it unfeasible. You are also right, BMW is in fact helping Husky. I still question this marrige of sorts, and we will see where it all goes. Again this goes back a long ways and they should have NEVER been in a position to need a bailout from BMW in the first place!!! But for now the BMW thing is good I believe. But where are our new 2-strokes!:confused:
 
i look at my wr300 and then look at my cagiva(88-250) alot has changed in 23 yrs then i look at a gasgas 300 test in a mag whos kiding who i hope BMW have got something because i think these bikes have run there course:confused: the people want a new bike not make over
