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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

So the hard core bros give their ringleader crap? .. Not good, you need to fix that :p

I thought the tape might look good on Darin's wheels, cuz he polished the centers and add just a bit of red to the mix. No crap from me.

WHAT!!! no red paint on the brembo logo?

AWESOME looking bike! :cheers:

I was not really liking the silver graphics until you got the bike done and WOW, looks fantastic. I am decking out a 04 CR125 right now with all white plastic and custom blue black and white graphics. Will not polish and take the time you did as i hammer my bikes but should look good.

BTW, are you near St. Louis? My WB165 lives there now. You should hook up with my buddy Jason and ride it.

And man, one of these would look good on there :D

Kelly, thanx and totally forgot about the disc guards. In fact the black and red look good too! I do like the one that can be polished. I will get one as soon as I chase down all the rare 500 parts, promise. Those are bad! Your one two fiver will look really sharp in those colors! Iam 3hrs north of St Louis and would really like to ride a 165. Well have to hook up with jason in the future. I was lookin for an older 125 when I found the 500. Just going to be 165 delayed till next year. But still have the bike fever temp @ 165 degrees.

Those would look sharp on the rims, good idea!

Maybe Kelly can start doing graphics someday??????????? Hint!
 
Darin,

Absolutely stunning. :cheers::applause: I couldn't ride it because a thrash everything against solid objects that weren't meant to be rubbed on.
 
Nice work, I don't want to seem like a hater, but I think it would look better with a shiny pipe. That must have been fulfilling after you got it all back together. :clap

Sorry for pimping my wears on your thread just thought the polished ones would look GREAT on that bike. I just ordered 10 sets of rim tapes from a local graphics shop. Should be fun.

- I can't get the swingarm bolt out of my 125 or I would have it done now.

That's okay. Them swing arm bolts are a pain since the bearings get rust welded to the bolt or forma ridge that won't let the bolt go thru the bushings.

Thanx giant joe. I modded the stock pipe to change the powerband and burned off all the paint/seasoned it with heat and gear oil fo the natural look.
 
Stunning bike ! and I must say sorry for copying your idea of polished cases with the red inlay while mine was laid up, looks great:thumbsup:
 
This is a shot of it in the sun. All the photos that I posted dont really show the bike's truse colors, standing beside it.
