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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Bike suddenly started running like garbage

Hnb:
Yes, they (shop & factory) do seem to have taken it personal. The shop has a connection that has gotten this problem a lot of attention. (story for another day). Shop is also aware and self admittedly embarrassed that it has come down to part swapping and has told me not to worry there is no way I will be paying for all the man-hours nor all these parts that did nothing.

drew:
No that is part of the problem, PARTS or lack there off. Neither Husky-USA nor Austria has enough spare parts to be able to supply one of everything and I think an ECU was one of them.

I am a design engineer in the automotive aftermarket replacement parts manufacturing business. We buy smaller manufacturers all the time. I am fully aware of the amount of intellectual property / tribal knowledge that doesn’t always get transferred. I feel like that is what we (we being me, the shop, & the factory) are up against with regard to diagnostics. Particular with three changes of hand.
