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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Comical but Fun

So, I have been jumping on the TE511 way to much for running into town. Joy riding, to my buddies farm
To BS, ect... So I started thinking I am using a race horse to plow fields with, sold my 1200s, my KLR, and bought
A DRZ400s to do the knocking around, 3500 mi. Interval oil changes (I will do 2000) weighs 317 empty,
Supposed dirt bike suspension? Price was ballpark of my leftover new 12 TE,
Folks, after a couple of days, I came to the conclusion, I will ride this bike to work, but the husky is like
Driving a VET, and the DRZ a focus....husky builds a wonderful motorcycle, I think I have to just use it up
And then get another, as I am ruined, the quality and performance just makes the other almost unrideable!
I know this is supposed to be a technical forum, but I had to say thanks to Husky for ruining my OTHER FUN!
 
Well get you another one, make it all bad ass dirt ready, keep this one for tooling around.

Sounds like an excellent solution to me.
 
Yes, I really liked the TR650, one may be in my future. Where I work (steel mill) bikes get really nasty even when
Covered. I also wanted something for a pit bike. This fills the bill, but certainly not husqvarna quality.
