• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 the forum! Introduce yourself here!

Hi everyone. New member form CT. Just entered the Husky world myself with a new '09 TE310. Stumbled across this site via another.
This is my first Husky ever, and it's a beautiful machine. Love just looking at it. Unfortunatly, I'm actually having some issues with mine already includng the dealer that sold it to me, but that's another story for another thread. Hopefully someone here can help me out.
Thanks.

Welccome aboard Joe. There are lots of good people here, if you're having some issues with you're bike you can start a thread in one of the technical sections and I'm sure that someone with experience will jump in and try to help you sort things out.
 
Just P/U a 08 Te610 4/24/09 with 29 miles on it. I am coming off a 640e and looking forward to putting some miles on the Husky. I live in IL and ride a little bit of everywhere. I put 10 more miles on the bike and loaded it in a trailer and it's off to the Grand Canyon for it's 1st ride. I am out the door Tomorrow morning, I must go finish packing.

Talk at you soon,
John Z

Kiwi Husky

Hi all in the Husky world cafe. :thumbsup:

If you would like to see a few racing pics in the NZ VMX scene & including some WFO old Huskys go to www.kiwirider.co.nz & find the
Greybeard scrambles 20th anniversary link.

Am currently restoring a 1976 360 GP I found in Oregon USA a couple of years ago. Can any one help with some nice original Falke front & rear gaurds??

Stay out of the dust & keep up the good work :applause:

Cheers #93
 
Howdy,

I'm from Beggs, OK trying my best to get a Husky (kinda scary since there are no dealers within 3 hours driving time). I've got one coming if it will ever ship, an 08 TE610, been waiting on it for 4 weeks-long story. Anyway, I've been reading up on it and trying to get a feel for what I need to look for/watch for with it and what I need to add when it does show up. This is a great resource. I currently have a 04 KTM 525exc and a 07 Suzuki Kingquad, and am excited about owning a Husky.
 
Just signed up

This will be my first Husky (2009 TE-610ie) but I have to wait until the end of May or the beginning of June to get it because they are the last ones off the production line. I have been on TT and Advrider before but cafehusky is new to me. Can't wait for my bike to get here!:cool:

Congrats on the new Husky! I'm sure the wait is excruciating, but it will be well worth it:thumbsup: Once you get the bike, you have a host of excellent dealers to choose from that are only as far away as your phone! There is a lot of valuable information for you in the 610 forum, too.

Back On A Husky After 27 Years

Last Husky was a new 1982 CR 250. Just bought a 2009 WR 125 from Upstate Cycles in SC. Gerald and Mike are great guys. Thanks for the op to join the Cafe.
 
Hi everyone....:D
I ride an '07 TE610 here in Vancouver BC. I haven't had the time to ride the last while, but I hope to post up some ride pics this summer.

Thanks again Dean for sorting out my login issue.

Cheers :cheers:
