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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Does anyone know how strong the old styles subframe is on 450/501? A friend of mine would like to adventurize his bike and now we are looking for luggage options for weekend stealrh camping.

Option 1: GL Mojave or Wolfman E13 or Enduristan Blizzard L for light stuff and a backpack for heavier items

Option 2: GL Coyote or similar to carry everything for camping (tent, cook kit, clothes...)

How many of you have adventurised those bikes an what have you done to them?

Thanks!
 
Keep in mind that it's a light weight, high-performance dirt bike with a license plate, and isn't really designed to carry cargo.

That said, I'd recommend the smallest bags you can tolerate. Bigger bags just means you're gonna take more crap that you don't need.

Coyote is prolly the biggest bag I'd recommend, and I'd advise to put the heavier items in the bottom so that they're the farthest forward.
