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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1) What oil fill have you been using?
Manual indicates 0.8 L. I pulled the side check bolt to verify. It was pretty close but some oil was draining out the side check hole. I don't want to have too much.

2) What brand of handlebars come stock on this bike?
They seem very low profile.
 
I put 1L in and have never had issues. The bottle is never full and you always leave some behind.

My handlebars were Tommaselli which are very low to me. I run ProTaper High bends.
 
my 08 has tomaselli
I like the bend but the finish doesn't allow the grip glue to work. tried safety wire, hair spray, scott grip glue .... same thing left hand grips spins and spins. Don't really notice it when riding but at the end of the day its always in a different spot.

Did your barkbuster clamps fit both bars or did you have to get different clamps?
 
Oops, I should have been more specific. The clamps that go around the handlebar. Will ProTaper clamp profile would on the Tommaselli bars? Or do you need the Magura clamp profile?
 
Thanks for the responses.

I decided to buy Cycras handguards with the ProTaper clamps. I also picked up a new handlebar (ProTaper Woods high). I'm all set now and will just keep the OE bars as backup. :thumbsup:
