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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc Does your kickstarter develop a grove where it hits peg?

I noticed mine has a good millimeter sized deep chunk missing where it hits my foot peg. Is this common?
 
Pretty common on every make and model of dirt bike that has an aluminum kickstarter.

this particular design has it hit the footpeg and is a little worst than average

just about everything having to do with italian husky kickstarts are worse than average

my 95 has a boss on the kicker where it hits the peg...looked like its designed that way, lol
 
don't worry firecrotch the whole kicker assembly will crap itself before the kicker snaps. mines fairly chunked out but the ball bearing thing in there that stops it from flapping around when riding shat itself 6 months ago-locked solid mid ride(against pipe) & had to use both hands to free it so could start it then it wouldn't stay put. looked & saw the ball bearing & spring had gone MIA. ziptie holding it there now. looks crap & a pain in the arse but effective none the less. will buy a new one some day:p
