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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Welcome to CafeHusky, Stef
I'm sorry you're having issues with your 510. Maybe a post in the four stroke forum will get you a better answer. There's lots of Husky knowledge here so I'm sure someone will be able to point you in the right direction.
Good luck with your bike. I was just at Stonyford yesterday

Hi, I'm "backagain". Don't have a dirt bike yet. Would like a dual sport,
so I joined this site to find out more about the TE 450/510/610 line up, and Huskys in general..... Reliability, ease of maintenance, parts and the like. Thanks in advance for the insight I'm sure to receive.

Pretty much anything you'd ever want to know about Huskys can be found here, I'm sure. Good luck in your search for a dirtbike

Until about a week ago, I hadn't seen hide nor hair of a Husky since the 70's, so naturally, after some research on the current state of streetable dirt bikes, and starting with my head over on the 'orange side' while researching at TT, I promptly bought a TE450 and expect to take delivery in a couple of days.

Welcome to CafeHusky, BITSA Bill!
Big congrats on the new bike and for getting back into the dirt. Seems that lots of folks that have been away for years are starting to drift back to the sport. I'm glad you're one of them

Finally clicked on a Cafe Husky reference and like what I found. Recently talked my brother into an '07 TE 450 as well so now I get to turn wrenches on two Huskies. Signed up for the Penguins DS and Sheetiron rides so maybe I'll see a few of you around. Snow snow go away, I want to ride some high-country today.

Hi, UberKul! Welcome to CafeHusky
You're in Wilseyville? Have you done the hare scrambles there?
Let us know how the Penguins ride goes, it's really pretty down there.
