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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Figures, I had about made my mind up to trade the 510 on a '10 TC250, install a P3 tank, revalve the suspension and go racing. But, I was only figuring about $600 for a tank.
 
the tank on the 2010 WR125 at the bike show looks huge! but im sure its not a production tank we will see,also has the 50mm forks

Oh man, you can definitely tell thats an oversized tank. They filled in the room in the opening of the tank shroud and dropped the fuel tank lower as well. Where was this pic taken? And where is this tank at?

:notworthy:

sorry. i wasn't sure, because from that angle the fuel tank looks a little odd. but yes, it's the standard 2010 wr125 fuel tank.

how much fuel does that tank hold?? the brochure says 1.9 gal. but the picture from the show looks much bigger than that
 
1.85 gal vs 2.15 gal is just not enough to spend the extra dollars for the new tank. Why not at least 2.5 gal :excuseme:

It's rather shocking that they would raise the cap up that high (as if they were trying to get every last ounce of fuel in possible) and still only add less than a 1/3 of a gallon.

Fine, you don't want an actual long distance tank, I get it, go for light weight, good ergos, but then don't raise the fuel cap up two inches and put my nads at risk for no good reason.

Relax Shane, the aluminum resi tank for our bikes got mocked up last night, looks very cool, guessing will hold just under a gallon and is all under the stock tank. It is going to be very unique that is for sure.
