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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Guys what the verdict for setup of these bikes still finding it hard to find a balance with the bike.Has anyone tried different Triple Clamps etc.

Current setup
Forks and Shock revalved with Pro Moto Suspension (Ian Whiteman)
Forks First line (tried flush)
Sag 112mm - 40mm

Seems thats the best to get bike to turn but still cannot lean on the front mid corner and feels low and lazy on exit. About to try heavier spring in rear (rider weight no gear 85Kg) 5.7 spring.
 
do you know what Whitey done to the forks?
I would add some more preload and get the sag back around 105-107mm

What rate are the front springs?

i always run mine flush with the top clamp, I also recently tried a 19mm triple clamp but didn't like it so changed back to the std one.
 
Probably a bit too much sag at the rear. I run one line at the front forks and sag 105 mm, turns in OK
Husky and KTM want you to sit right on the front to make it turn and further back for straight line stability.

You probably too heavy for the rear so the heavier spring will help. I'm 74kg and the rear is almost all the way wound up on the standard spring.
