• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 took a nap, now brake pedal needs to be bolted back on.

I forgot to unlock my steering column and took off in the parking lot at work but couldn't turn right when I needed to balance and dropped the bike. Very embarrassing, but I knew I'd do it at some point and I can promise you I won't do it again, lol! Anyway, the little riveted brake pedal broke off of the arm and now I need to bolt it back on. I'm sure I'm not the first one to do this so I'm looking for some ideas on a good way to do it. I also noticed that there's a small indent (1/16" deep, and about 5/8" wide along the arm) for what might be a plate on the opposite side, but I didn't see any other parts when I dropped the bike.

I was thinking maybe an 1/8" thick plate tapped for a screw and then bolt the screw into the plate- and short enough that it wouldn't pierce the clutch cover?
 
Ha! I did the same thing last year on the 610. If the 630 is the same, the pedal is riveted on. Your lucky, I lofted the wheel taking off and went flying off when it landed. Yes, very embarrassing!
