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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

You can ride from Hamilton to almost Boise without hitting anything more civilized than some graveled roads. About 250 miles as a crow flies and ~450 on the ground. You will have to poach a little bit in places where they have closed trails in the last 17 years or use FS roads if you don't. If you don't mind thumbing your noses at the exclusionists it is mostly single track. You will also need a chase party to supply but it is a trip of a lifetime in our little neck of the woods. This is old time miner/indian land and a lot of these trails have been in place for a long time before there were "dirt bikes".

My buddy junyah rode his wr250r from here in New Hampshire all the way to Buenos Aires.
He did not go directly there either. Clocked around 31000 miles. His bike is sitting in Uruguay now while he is here saving money to go back and keep riding.
Here is a link to his trip blog.

So not quite Maine, about 70 miles short, and not quite Baja.
But as close as I know of!

That's neat!

As kids. We had a farmer give us 20 acres and we built a motocross track on it.
Then we had a long trail system through woods, cornfields, strip mines, etc linking all of us kids.
We counted the number of bikes and it was some 150, within a 10 mile radius. Bikes were all Tm's, Rm's, Penton's, Husky's, YZ's,IT's, Elsinore's and one Rokon. We also converted those lil Honda Z50's with Honda SL 70 engines. Neighbors owned Motosport Trails in Malvern Ohio. That motocross track is still running to this day. Friend of mine did all the dozer work on their top original track.
 
Hey, I just saw your last post saying the Lectron was sweet.
Was it a direct fit? Anything need changing to fit?

Thanks for any feed back

Ha! No worries! We go sideways all the time......



That makes these threads have character.



Wonder if anyone has started on a dirt bike ( Non Plated) down by Baja and ride one all the way to Maine?



Be interesting to know how long it would take?



Prob get some good Enchiladas down by Robert! Good steak up by Walt! I know I could get a few Genesee Light beers out of Norm and Joe!

https://www.rokon.com/news/rokon-across-america I know the guy who did this we raced Red Husky's together
 
Wow. This guy is like 15 miles away from me!
I don't know who he is but have to ask around.
Good cause!
 
That's cool! We as kids kinda borrowed friend's, dad's Rokon. Took two of us to pull start it.
Friend's Dad was lil upset we rode it.

His dad rode a Harescramble on it. In first turn there was a huge pile up and just about everyone was in a pile or on the ground. Off to the side was his Rokon running. So he picked it up and took off! Thing was like a tank!

No worries!

Any helpful hints, ideas, suggestions, experiences, past failures, successes, and even philosophies are worth their weight in gold. I always want to learn new things.

It would be 100% boring if everyone never participated or it was one sided.

Id like to know what the stock 144 had .


Finished the week on a high... converted this brand new Husky TC125 to a 150 (144cc) using the genuine kit then added our own TSP porting and custom head insert. The stock 125 made 39.1 rwhp, exactly the same as the last 3 new 125s we've had on the dyno. The final results for the worked 150 were awesome... over 46rwhp @ 11,500rpm and it was 100% consistent at very high temps when pushed hard. This bike is being raced in flat track and its sure to fly!!
For anyone who doubts the dyno figures, and I know you're out there

;) ... on our dyno a stock YZ125 makes 34.5, a stock KTM85sx makes 25 and a stock KTM250sx makes about 48.

I almost put my 15 in DTX trim just because at my age why not. Thinking a Lectron would be the way to go with a good stack of rear sprockets.
 
Decided to go a different route with battery so if anyone wants a shorai used just once you can have it for $100. Significantly stronger than stock.
