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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey guys, got a plate on y wr300 along with one of those tusk duel sport kits that has a battery that runs led lights. Well what I have discovered is a couple times I forgot to charge the battery and lights went dim or just didnt work cus I forgot and left the switch on overnight. So....I was just thinking of tappping into the system and using one of these for the led's as to not blow out the bulbs.

Theres a yellow and black wire going to the back not connected to anything. I assume its for the rear tail lights. I was gonna just tap into that.

This way the plan is that whenever the bike is running all lights/blinkers and horn would be on.

Will this work? Any issues or things I should/shouldnt do?
 
It can work like that. I had my 300 set up similar to that last year when I was dual sporting it, but I used the OE regulator with out a battery and just ran it off AC.

To go with AC and DC you will have to have the DC stuff running of a separate ground wire that's common to the DC circuit and isolated from the AC. With the total AC system I could just ground to the frame.
