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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125-200cc 2013 wr165 does well at first race of year

Had my first off road race this weekend and new bike with all the mods worked out great. I rode bike last year in last race as a stock wr125 and work well but was missing the 165 modded feel like old bike felt like. 250 strokes and 450 were no doubt pulling me but got 5 place and ended up 2nd in series for year. This year I moved up to master which is a lot faster class and thought looking at the line of bike and riders at the start I might be a ittle over matched. Well the little husky did great handles better than old bike and I was not feeling like I was under powered just perfect amount. Thanks for all the help getting bike dialed in and sure glad I bought one of the last old small bore huskys and will be keeping it for a long time. Couple guys I beat were on new huskys (ktm) and were asking after race about my bike and they never new that husky made a 165? Haha.image.jpg
 
Good job! I too had my 1st race on my CR165. Was a muddy try to finish race for sure. I was a little worried my 13/46 gearing was a little tall but it worked great. Worked my way up to 3rd in the +50A
 
I am running 1/4 vpc12 with 3/4 premium my compression is 195 psi on this 165 my old 165 had 210 psi. I am running a 12/50 gearing and also did on old bike for years seems to work out good for tighter off road riding.
