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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

What size sprockets are you running?

On the go kart track i found the 15 44 to be quite tall. hitting 80mph on the straights and only using into 5th. I think I could go 14/44 or 13/44 at sonoma and be better off. It really spending too much time pulling individual gears out of corners instead of slamming 3 gears to the next....
 
I went up 2 or 3 on the rear sprocket ... whatever size I could get in there without having to change the chain. We do a lot of slow speed stuff and NEVER go anywhere near a highway so it made sense to gear the bike down a bit.
 
stock front with 40 tooth rear. I miss that aggressive jump n snap it used to have but because this bike will be 95% street it made sense to go lower. A lot smoother and gears last a lot longer, just doesn't have that wheel lifting grunt anymore. Plus these warp9 rims are pretty heavy. I think next time i would like to try a 44 or 45 tooth rear.
