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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

How can a bike that looks so trick be so heavy / slow ? I recently found this 2004 TC250 on CL. I think they look so cool, I notice the FBF triple trees in the pics. Bought it yesterday, runs but sounds like the main bearings are shot. I bought the bike for the FBF 50mm works forks, very cool. Does anyone know anything about these bikes ? Can they be made to run ? It has a Doma exhaust on it. I really wanted the forks for my 06 CR 125 (144)

Definitely looks trick. It doesn't help that the 250 motor from back then was basically a down sized 450. It's way overbuilt.
 
I had those forks and triple clamps on my WR 250. I had Les at LT racing do his magic on them. They were awesome after that, they really felt like you could hit anything with them at the time. They are very similar to CC Zokes on the newer bikes but are a little different. They are a little on the heavy side and may be a little large for a 125 but what the heck. Nice find, those forks at the time I think were $2,000.00. I also had a set of the FBF 45's which seemed to work really good but I don't think there was too much special about them.
