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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Yes it's fugly, almost all concept bikes are and it will never see the light of day. When the design department was done with that one they must have said "Now is the time on Schprocket's when we dance!"

I'm just happy to see the potential for the use of the 690 thumper in a Husky!
Somebody photoshop the new Husky colors on this one and send it to them...

The most (I really want to say only) positive thing about all of this is we have some true wide ratio transmissions coming in the off road line up, otherwise I've got nothing :cool:
 
As for Rally bike Hondas new effort is sweet looking...

And it has just clinched the 2013 World rally rally championship in its first season of competition. Cant wait for Dakar. This HRC Rally bike is the most refined and IMHO the best looking Rally bike in the game. (PS TM just built a factory 450 rally bike too and it looks very nice as well)
