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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi all,
My WR250 has had all the turn signals brake light etc stripped off in the past (before my ownership), need to make it road legal again before the boys in blue get upset with my 5 minute commute to the bush.
Have ordered new switch block and turn signals, brake light switch etc ready to fit. My question is, can I wire these systems into the headlight power supply or do I need a stand alone battery to power these accessories? basically is the headlight power supply AC or DC? Voltage levels are not critical as all the LEDs I use are multivoltage (10-30V) but they will not function off an AC supply./

I know I could stop being a lazy prick and go throw a multimeter on to find out but I am stuck on the couch following a knee reconstruction.....bike is is down the stairs, across a sloping yard up some more stairs etc.
Just trying to get all the needed parts together so that once the wife can wheel me into the garage I can get everything done in one go.

Would really appreciate the help.

Paul,

Power supply is DC, just need to insure voltage regulator is in place. Usually bolted to steering stem area. Can assist with original wiring diagram if required.

Cheers.
