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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Cheap Mirror Plug. TE 449/511

Here's another angle...20140125_075029.jpg

They stay in really well and install/remove in seconds.

No dirt and grime fowl the threads.
 
You can also add a Ram mount ball into the hole. This would allow you to mount things like mirrors, gps, etc.

The Doubletake mirrors are awesome. They use the RAM ball mount 10mm post. I have broken multiple stock mirrors and the Baha Designs are worse but have not broken these. Easy on/off with no tools too. BTW the broken off stock mirror 10mm post cut short makes a great plug for the hole.

I like to keep a left mirror on even when off road to see where my friends are and almost all my rides include at least a little road time.

Exactly what I do. GPS gets mounted with a Ram mount. I use the HDB left hand mirror that folds in for off road. The OEM mirrors IMO should be removed first thing after getting the bike home from the dealer.
 
Am I the only one who likes the factory FAR mirror. I only had one to begin with(other already had the cool broken post thread plug)and that thing tucks away nicely and effortlessly. Others I tried, I thought sucked.
 
I think the OEM are the best mirrors for seeing and tuck away pretty nice but they break at the plastic elbow even when tucked away. The Baja designs mirrors won't hold still unless you really tighten them down. Then over a couple of rides of trying to tuck them away the shaft breaks off at the ball.
 
I don't know how you guys break mirrors so easily. I would have to throw my box of useless crap I pulled off the TE against a wall pretty damn hard to break the mirrors :)
