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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Bent radiator te511

Hi All,

Have te511 which I love. Have had the radiators braced (welded struts) but at the weekend had an awkward crash and bent the lugs (screw holes) that hold the bodywork to the radiator. Can anyone tell me best way to bend these back? I know I can use force, clamp / vice etc but should you use heat as it is aluminium? Any help appreciated as I dont want to fatigue the metal.

Have now bought radiator guards as this is the 2nd time I have done this - once on LHS and now on RHS.

What a great bike, I blast thought fire roads on this, singletrack and even take it on the mellower moto x tracks, then ride it home. Perfect dual sport.

Cheers

Mike
