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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hello Husky fans. I had you in mind when pointed my lens at some fine Italian machinery at the X Games this morning.

You can see my Ty Davis and Jamie Lanza interviews on http://www.digitaloffroad.com.

The track is incredible and the start is freaky.

Enjoy the racing everyone!

Anyone know what the cable from the head to the throttle body is for?

My guess is that it is to keep something from hitting the throttle body and popping it out during an event. Strange things happen in EnduroX...

schedule was messed up, so I missed the two finals (mens and womens), but I saw all the heats and LCQs. Crazy stuff. And I spotted the Husky. Every time I saw it on camera (which wasn't very often), I got excited! It's so rare to see a Husky on TV. It's usually just the Japanese stuff with the occasional Orange bike. In this event, I saw a Husky, a Husa and a Beta!

I think its the old backfire saver.
We would safety wire the carbs to the head, especially on big bore machines. I've seen pro teams do it as well like the CH Racing TE610 of Ericsson had his Dellorto wired to the head in 98 season. sometimes they would have a big pop stall backfire and blow the carb off the intake manifold and ruin your day.

Ben, thanks for link, good work out there.
 
Thanks robertaccio. There is more uploaded to digitaloffroad.com.

My Husky observations during the event:

-bummed about Graffunder
-felt bad for Lanza (lots of ground pounding)
-Sandoval is a BEAST
-Mandi is one cool cat, a great rep for Husky and USA

Oh, and I like the red cases.
