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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi ya'll (American accent) I got myself into this situation on Tuesday:


It was a legal trail (instead of local fields and cycle paths for once) hence all of the 4x4 ruts.

As you can see, the water was very near the air box. If I had powered through instead of stopping the engine could have sucked in water and broken the conrod. Luckily I stopped the bike and pulled it manually back out the way I had came.

Anyway it got me thinking, the 610 carb, FI, 570, 630 all share the same components more or less. Assuming the loom was sourced as well as the engine would it be possible to "plug and play" with the more modern FI engine or even a 630 engine in the 2001 frame?

I really do think this is the perfect bike for me and the most expensive part of any dual sport seems to be the wheels and I have the enduro wheels/brake and the supermoto wheels/brake so what do ya'll think?

Pics of the bike on both setups:




As you can see it's incredibly versatile and so nice! I just wish it was easier to swap between both setups.
