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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just changed the oil

Just changed the oil, everything was fine, looked like a mix of good and bad oil. The filters looked to be pretty clean, I went ahead and changed the main oil filter witch still had a slight hint of red "Red means good i guess". Something I did notice though. On the way through Mississippi, it rained all of the way through and the bike got soaked. I failed to remember that the plug was supposed to go on the exhaust and I am pretty sure it got filled with water, I think some of it made it into the engine along with a lot of fuel on the attempted starting "shown by small white deposits". Anyway, i'm glad i decided to change the oil before I played a little on her tomorrow, I am going to do a couple of hours on her throughout the month and change the oil again. I also noticed that my left fork is leaking "bummer!" I might have messed up the fork seal whenever I cranked it down on the "Hitch Mounted motorcycle carrier" I nicknamed wobble wobble. "God I hate that thing" It was the first time that I had ever seen one in action. "if it was your first time, you would have cranked the hell out of the straps too. Especially if you were about to drive 1200 miles with your one true love wobbling around on the back of a truck. I don't that I can afford to have the forks gone through this month with the out of state title transfer "eating my sack lunch". I guess I'll post some pictures on here later so you guys can see my baby. Or should I post them in a different section??

Hey Lucifer,

Glad you made it back in one piece. Could have been worse it could have snowed all day...:D

You might want to try bleeding your forks first with the little Schrader valves on top of your forks. Could be that's all it takes.

Post up some pics if you want over on the Post up pictures of your 4 stroke bikes!

:cheers:
