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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Anyone running EBC 320mm upgrade on a TE570? Having fitment issues.

I ordered the EBC 320mm upgrade kit for my 2001 Husqvarna TE570. It has the 45mm forks. Right away I realized the caliper bracket had more mounting holes then necessary and mounted at a bit of an angle. The top, thickness edge of the rotor was scraping the caliper. I figured it couldn't be the right bracket, so I e-mailed EBC. That was February. 4 months later and EBC still has not been able to (/ isn't trying very hard) figure out which bracket I need. I'm sick of them giving me the run around so I'm trying to figure it out myself.

This was the bracket that came with the kit - a Gold #BRK007:

Notice the extra hole and that the top of the caliper is angled inwards more than the bottom. This is where the top edge of the rotor scrapes the caliper interior.

This was EBC's next guess, a Blue #BRK012:

Again too many holes and the bolt pattern doesn't work.

I'm mentioning colors because the gold brackets are the older ones. Blue is apparently their new stuff. Maybe the design changed? They don't have any in the US and have been "trying" to get in touch with their EU counterparts for months now.

Is anyone running a 320mm EBC upgrade kit on a TE570? Could you send me pics?
