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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Ya know... not to piss in anyone's Wheaties here... but these types of "conceptual graphics" can be produced by almost anyone with 3/4 of a brain and Photoshop. Just sayin' :thumbsup:
 
I've really liked that retro Husky design for a while now....I used to mess around with cruiser customizing some, and the tank/seat/subframe I think is relatively easily doable, but the radiator situation? That's the fly in the ointment. You have a nice slim retro tank on there, how to add the neccessary square inches of cooling surface without looking like Dumbo's ears.....


I know to some it's fine just as a concept drawing....I actually want one. :D
