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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2010 Model Information Preview

WR or CR 125

Back in the 70's Carl Cranke and myself raced a Yamaha 125 in the Baja 500. Felt great on the pipe. Also Mitch Payton, "owner of Pro Circuit Racing" hauled on a Husky 125 in the desert. Tommy Brooks won lots of desert races over all on a 125. It's nice to have horsepower, but a good rider on a good 125 is hard to beat. I'm sure someone reading this can remember those days.

:thumbsup:

I remember when I had my 125 DKW, the slogan they had was "DKW, the little bike that wins big races". 125's were pretty prevalent in all types of racing back then.

Mike I have been thinking if you want to race BAJA in the 250 class
Then maybe you should think about a CR 125 6 speed and in the last 4 years of holding it wide open in the desert it is still going .I beleive it has a higher top speed then a TC 250 if they come with a 5 speed
Instead of waiting for something new try some thing that has been tested plus the cost of the cr is about 1/2 of what the new 250 will be and all the big tanks you want are avalible

Ive thought about it, based on your impressive results, and the $3k brand new left over 125's....:thumbsup:
 
According to the info I just received from HSQ, the 2010 TXC250 is fuel injected and has the new gen mini 250 powerplant,........starting to look interesting!!
