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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Added a Roto-Pax to a TE511

This weekend I went to hang out with some ADV guy's in the mountains of Northeastern Oregon and knew I had to get a way to add extra fuel capacity to the Husky I didn't want to have to borrow from the guy's that have tankards for fuel tanks.
I already had the Touratech plate and just added the Roto-Pax setup. It can probably do a couple stacked pax but this trip I tethered 2 Wolfman 1 liter holders with the MSR cans to it.

I fabricated an aluminum plate under the rack because the stock mounting one would not fit.
I did some pretty tough trails and dry river rock crossings and it held up great.

Good Job, does it plug into the fuel system or do you simply take it off and pour the contents into the main tank?

It does not go directly into the main tank but takes all of 10 seconds to dismount the fuel can and top the bike off with the 1 gallon.
 
great idea; I've been thinking about something like this.
Does the rotopax intrude into the seat area?
