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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey Folks

I had a bit of a bender on my SMR and have got a nasty dent in the lower LH stanchion.
I've got the 50mm marzocchi shivers and have found a set online from an 06 TE510 also 50mm.

Now I'm hoping because the stanchions are the same I can swap all the internals over from the SMR and the lower radial caliper mount, new seals and happy days.

I know the TE has more travel and is a bit softer but all i need is the stanchions will I have any issues?
Am I overlooking anything?
Thanks in Advance.
 
I think we're thinking of different bits.

I had a crack this morning and with a bit of heat and some leverage with a mate we got them both off without too much hassle.
The dented fork was a bit harder to spin but not too difficult.

So anyone curious as to how it went here's some pics.
Haven't got the replacements yet but ready to go when they arrive.
