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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

wheel spokes??

So, where do you guys get your wheel parts?? Seems as the head (the part that attaches to the hub section) of a couple of the spokes on the rear wheel of my 08 610 are broken off..
Thanks :)
 
wow.. guess the dealers actually sell them indivually. Called George and he confirmed that. Hopefully I can pick them up at the local Husky dealer soon. Thanks guys :)
 
I picked some up at Uptite a while back. Can't remember the price but they weren't much. I've used my spares yesterday and went to replace them, but the local dealer where I'm at (South Sound BMW) said they are having trouble getting them. :excuseme:
 
Just buy a whole set then eBay the remainders in groups of 3-4. Alot of people need a couple. U should be able to recoup the whole cost and then some.

I would, but I'm dirt poor at the moment. Spending closer to $15 then $100 is more my taste right now.. BUT GD, my local "dealer" sucks. 2 phone calls and two promises of "I'll call ya back with the info", and a day later I have to call back for my unreturned calls. At least I made progress today. I was so tempted to drive 3 hours one way instead of 1 just to avoid them. Can't wait to see what happens if I ask them to ship them to me if I get busy next week and can't make it down there to pick them up. :excuseme:
 
08 rear wheel.. and supposed the left and right sides are different part numbers.. 2 of each would do me well. Let me know. Thanks Mike :cheers:
 
LRPct, there is only one type of spoke in the rear wheel, but 2 different brands DID and Alpina. Your bike should have the DID spokes from what I can tell. Send me a PM and we can get you taken care of.
 
ressurecting and old thread....

Does anyone know the proper length of spokes F & R for an 07 SMR?
Im needing a whole new set for my stock wheels as it looks as though someone has replaced some with the wrong length. (not too mention i have bent spokes and rusty nipples).
Should i just order all the spokes from a dealer or find another supplier?
