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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey all,

Just after some detailed info and perhaps some nice photos of how others have re-routed / hidden / moved their horn from the factory location in front of the right hand radiator.
 
Good luck, everything is so tightly packed I gave up on hiding the horn :P It's hard enough finding a spot for a coolant catch can so I could race.
 
I modded the horn bracket and mounted it on the bottom of the right handlebar riser bolt/nut (bottom side of the top triple clamp). Sits right behind the headlight/number plate. Worked out well. I think I might have posted that on here a while ago. Not sure if I posted pics.
 
Here's a couple of photos of where/ how I mounted my coolant overflow Caiman

The photo makes it look like it blocks a lot of rad flow but it is quite out of the way.
You can also see in the second pic I have a little fuel tank breather/check valve for the overflow bottle.

The overflow is a Honda Racing Team item
