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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I have lots of mounting kits for these right now and as most of you know I love this bike so thought I would share the love today :D and put some steering stabilizers on sale. We recently changed the frame side mounting and these have been very nice, EZ to install and rock solid. Makes a stable bike more stable, smoother line choices, less fatigue etc.

Will do $385 shipped in the US. (retail is $425 plus shipping)

Let me know via Email if interested please. motosportz@gmail.com

Thanks,
Kelly

So the mounting piece would basically take the place of my 24mm Touratech risers? How thick is that mounting piece? That would be cool if you offered different heights of those. I like my bars really high.

Also, how well does your damper work in a Supermoto application? I'm think of throwing some Warp 9 wheels on my 449.

Yes works on SM's. As the mounting black and damper are below the bar clamps you can still run spacers and get the bars even higher. All you need is spacers and longer bolts.
 
Kelly,
Interesting change to the post mounting.
It looks like the damper body sits a bit further back than with the clamp mounted post, is that so?

No damper remains centered on the stem as it needs to be. Actuating arm is longer as the post and pin are further away in this setup.
 
Does that increase the steering max turn?
On the older style that I have the steering lock is decreased very slightly by the dampner.
