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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

After reading lukehumphrey's battery bouncing thread here http://www.thumpertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6974990#post6974990, I decided it was time to take a look at mine even though it hasn't bounced out from under the strap yet. Zoiks!




Well, ignorance was bliss and even though I don't have a lot of time on this bike yet, the fender's molded battery tray was already working its way through the back, bottom, and sides of the battery case.:doh: I covered the worn areas with the pile side of some adhesive backed 3M hook/loop fastener and stuck a patch of the hooks onto the fender much like other folks have described doing to help hold the battery in place. Moral of this story is even if your bike hasn't seen a lot of on/off road time it would be best to put some kind of buffer between the battery and wherever it touches the fender. Hope this helps somebody else.
 
i made these, 2 different types, i found the first one looks good & still has the rubber strap, but really the second one is much easier to make, more secure & doesn`t add any height to the battery ie: (no extra pressure from the the seat hitting it)
