It's officially a frenzy 
-
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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Does CR stand for "crash resistant"?
Regarding "crash resistance" It has been explained to me that it is the gyroscopic effect of the rotating wheels that stabilizes a motorcycle. Therefore the faster you go, the more stable you become...right. That's crash resistant...not crash proof.

Of course!
Went well. Harold was nice enough to stay a little late to answer my myriad of questions. In fact, he was still taking my calls today!raisrx251;89169 said:

I just looked back and saw all of the posts that folks were leaving. I am enjoying the friendly atmosphere of this forum and all of the fun comments. The ride report is coming.

I'd like to open a can of worms, er uh oil that is!
What are folks running for fuel, oil, and gear oil? Today I actually read my owners' manual. (Just the column that was in english). It called for 98 octane fuel. I bought some. That stuff ain't cheap! I didn't understand what oil to use in the transmission. I called Harold and he said any light viscosity two stroke transmission oil. Maybe it isn't that critical as long as it's in there and clean.

That's good to hear. I haven't opened these cans perhaps I can take them back. If not I've got some liquid gold to run in my bike.
