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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Engine protection BMP style

Howdy Bill and first off I gotta call this a successful saga on the 08 WR250 you sold me that had the BMP engine guard mounted around the front sprocket ...

No pics but I do have the video here of when the master-link(ML) released on a mountain-road climb and the chain unwound off the bike... Your engine protector saved the engine and did sustain a broken tip on its chain-leading edge ... So when I rolled back down to the river where I knew someone would be there to help install the ML I usually carry with me, your guard was mounted upside down to put the 'jagged' edge on exit\bottom side of the sprocket allowing the Husky to be ridden home as always :)


 
Good to see you back ray_ray.

Not under this particular circumstance but a lesson learned, we all should carry a spare master link.
 
Sheared a cs bolt that junked the case saver and lug that it mounted too.
Luck of the draw sometimes.
Yay ray-rays back.
Hows the building going not effecting your ride routine i hope?
 
I like that you kept the clutch pulled in with the engine still running. Safety first on the side of a mountain. Definitely always carry spare chain bits as well, great habit that makes it easier to get home safely.
