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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

DIY Heat Shield

Noticed a few scorch marks on the inside right leg of my riding pants. Also some tell-tale blobs of nylon on the exhaust pipe where it is exposed between the frame and the muffler.

Thought to myself, perhaps I need a heat shield, otherwise I will end up doing myself a similar injury as the time I got trapped under my Bultaco Alpina many years ago..

Found a bit of 3mm aluminium plate in the shed. So proceeded to cut and drill away everything that didn't look like a heat shield. A couple of hours later and a pile of shavings on the garage floor and this is the result.

Still needs a bit of filing and polishing but am reasonably happy with the result...

Also a big vote of thanks to 7602 Racing for the Clutch (Rekluse) Cover. Thanks Clay.....
