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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SMR 511 vs GSXR street fight @ Deals Gap

You had to ruin it with that lame ass Daft Punk, lol. Seriously though, cool video. Very interesting you choose such a sportbike riding position on the SM, I like to relax a bit and throw the leg out and let the rear move around a bit. I may try a few canyon runs strait sportbike style with more weight on the front tire.
 
Sportbike style works best for me...dont have the boots for foot drag style, plus I am from a sportbike background. The rear still moves quite a bit but you just balance it with knee pressure instead of boot pressure.
 
How about just the raw video footage. I find it so very annoying that everyone thinks they are legit film editors with the cheapness of the video software out there today. Otherwise, this thing is on mute.

Awesome video thought (if I watch it from not on my soap box ;-))
 
Real fast SM riders keep there feet on the pegs :) when riding street the more weight you can put on the pegs the lower your CG and better balanced your bike will handle. Some throw there leg out and drag it for show others are doing a one legged squat and try not to touch the ground. I have run behind guys dragging knees and it is not a sign of a really fast rider it's a sign that in time you are going to hurt your knee ! I would have no problems going around a GSXR in twisties like that without dragging a knee lol
