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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Do It Yourself Upper Fork Guards , What I Do

Rearwheelin

Husqvarna
Pro Class
I don't know why it took me so long to make these guards for this bike. I have made them for all my other bikes and its been a stroke of luck that when my TE511 gets laid out on some rocks the upper forks have come out of it unscratched or damaged. My bike is still parked awaiting assembly but did manage to make the guards today. It's 2'' pvc pipe. Works great as a roost protector and will handle big rocks thrown at it. Many know of this trick mod for protecting your uppers and many don't. Cheap and works perfect:thumbsup: They just snap on and stay inplace perfectly:oldman:

 
Why is your bike still apart? More experiments in the works?
No more experiments . I havn't had time lately to put it all back together. I have ordered a trail teck temp gauge to install in my radiator hose today and a new clutch cover on order. The two tests that are up in the air is my breather mod hose routing and the double fans. Going to make the second fan a manual turn on with a TT handel bar switch.. I want to make a fuel tank vent catch can that puts the fuel back in the tank . I have seen long fuel trails running threw steep rough sectioned from my bike. This catch can will allow me to plug into a second tank that I will mount on my moto-mule trailer allowing me 7 gallon capacity while hitched to it.
 
I know what you mean, my bikes been sittin on a flat rear for three weeks now.

Then I gotta do the breather vent, change oil, etc etc
 
I used a drill press for the breather mod, the craftsman step bit I used wasn't quite 3/4 " or iether the breather was a little larger than a 3/4" hole. :) I was able to ream it with the craftsman step bit perfectly, might be hard to do with a hand drill .
