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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Beta 300 Trainer.

Thanks, where did you get your info? 7000.00 not bad, a grand less than my 300rr. I say not bad bad because I have owned my Beta for almost ayear and it has been rock solid! But yeah still pricey. Regardless Beta is a cool company.
 
kinda cool. rear fender and side plates look odd / goofy. After flogging the AJP I am feeling like this new movement towards slightly smaller bikes is very good and probably what a lot of people need even though they might not think it is as cool. Personally I think it (Beta) would be even better as a 200.
 
I think the smart companies smell blood in the water and are trying to jump on the market segment that AJP has been quietly been dominating. The trainer name doesn't put me off. Makes me think that some of the most high performance machines known to man come in a "trainer" version.SR-71-A12 Trainer.jpg

If I had the chance I'd take a ride in this one****************************************
 
This is very cool and usable in our neck of the woods. I think they also have a 150cc in this form or 125 is the rumor, Gas Gas is not far behind and the world of dirt bikes evolves to my amazement mostly. Japan will never catch these guys [ or Gals ] .:popcorn:
 
Whats different about this bike than the GG Pampera I had for my wife, or the Freeride is it appears a lot more heavy duty, built much like the RR besides frame and suspension. Not a collection of cheap parts and lightweight trials bike components. But, at only a grand less than a 300RR it should be. What shock and forks are they?

As is the AJP which I am finding far exceeds my expectations and makes me rethink what I really need in a bike.
 
They have not yet said what the forks and shocks are, but I do know the fork is 43mm.
Bike is designed for entry level rider with light weight, smooth power, low seat height, and more affordable price. They have said more experienced riders will like it for playing on and improving tech skills. and that it may be capable for races like the TKO.
After years of the manufactures designing bikes more suited to pro racers, I am excited about the direction Beta and AJP are going with some of their offerings, maybe I am overly optimistic, but this could be a shot in the arm for off road riding after years of decline.
 
Totally agree! We all want to be racers and fly around the track or woods like the new crop of bikes are capable of. Realistically most can't begin to use these new race bikes and end up getting the crap beat out of us while trying. Don't ask me how I know :rolleyes:. I look forward to more rideable bikes at a lower cost.
