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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

can you say photoshop.
But you can bet the sno bike wizards will be hard at work on that, when the time comes.
 
I don't think it's a chop, as the reflections and shadows are normal. AD Boivin makes the Xplorer system & has already produced one for the BMW G450X & Husky Big bores. It should bolt right up to the new TE's without any further R&D.

I rode one of these in 09 and they are a hoot. They corner like they're on rails. The need big power to run tho....
 
I want that BAD. I have ridden the snow bikes and they are WAY fun. You will need to talk your friends into it though as the snow bikes and the sleds don't really do the same thing. You want others on snow bikes to have FUN.
 
If we did that in Oz the tree huggers would kill us. We actually have more snow area than the swiss alps. Unfortunately apart from designated ski areas the naysayers would kills us if we fronted with a snow bike- heck they look like an absolute blast.
 
As far as I understood it's not for production, or maybe it will be next. It's for a movie. Tom Cruise should have fun on it :-)

The ski and track system shown has been in production and widely available for several years now. It bolts right up to the bike & only takes about 3 hours the first time you do it. After that it only takes about an hour to do the swap between wheels & ski/track. They use specific adaptors to fit the system on different bikes & will build adaptors for bikes that aren't listed on their site.

^^ agreed! After riding the 2moto kit a few times it is indeed a blast, but deep powder becomes more work than fun. I think that timbersled setup is the way to go out of the 3 conversion kits available.
 
It's not a 2011, but here a pic of the Husky Snowbike conversion David Kamo was riding last weekend at snowbike race in McCall, Idaho.IMG_2240.jpg
