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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Saw these advertised on the website of an Australian company called "R&D Husky". Anybody know if these are available anywhere in the US?

Went ahead and ordered them from Australia. $46 including shipping. Hopefully they will be decent quality. I'm hoping for a match to and extension of the lower guards, which is what it looks like in the photo.
 
i've had them on all my bikes and they are great!
Where the frame guard slips underneath the lower guard you will need to cut the guard off square for them to fit properly as they were designed for the older fames.
When washing your bike, on the odd occasion remove the guard and clean the mud and crap out from behind the guard as if its left there it will damage the paint on the frame
 
They are a genuine Husky part . Available in black or white. Any decent dealer should have or can get them !

They are a bit "thin" but work OK for the price. I always use Silicon Sealer under them to help "glue" them to the Frame.
 
I have just called Halls before to order those guards.
They took care of it no problem!
 
It has been a couple of years, but seemed easy for them to get their hands on.
There must be someone in Australia with similar parts connections.

Otherwise, I have also in the past, purchased adhesive grip tape and cut to shape frame protection.
Costs very little, and easy to apply.
