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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I am wondering if anyone else is having this issue. I am thinking I just need a new cable...I assume they stretch over time. I could put a new disc on as well. Wondering what other upgrades people have done.

I would have never noticed this except on my 09 wr300 the front brakes are SO much better.

We are putting the 165 kit on this bike so would like to get these brakes up to snuff as well.

Thanks for any ideas.
 
if your brakes feel soft it is typically air in the system, brake lines don't stretch very easily as they are wound with support and the line itself is usually a higher tensile line because of the pressures
check your fluid level and be prepared to bleed it
 
brake fluid gets old too...should be replaced every or every other season...just easy preventative maintenance
 
Thank you. I don't think it's a fluid issue. I change and bleed pretty regularly. However I will be sure to do again before bike is back together and maybe that will be it.

I have recently replaced the pads as well.
