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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Excellent review of 12 TXC 310.

Is there a good write up in the forum that explains the transmissions everyone always argues about? I don't quite grasp the difference because in my mind everything I've ever needed was a sprocket change away. I want to check the specs on my old WR250X now. Also, is this issue less noticeable on the bigger displacement models?
 
How would a 3 gallon tank and taller 5th, and 6th make it less of a bike for you? Would sure open up the possibilities for us and not change the off road prowess. The factory could make 2 gears and one tank and sell 2x the bikes. Husky needs to start thinking big picture IMHO. This has worked well for KTM.

I totally agree. Although I don't ride my 250 for long stretches on the road it would be nice to be able to keep up with traffic when I do without hovering in the 7k-8k rpm range. With the technical trails and steep cllimbs I deal with I hardly get out of third gear offroad. Some of my local trails are 25-30 minutes away. Going 40 mph to get there and having to fill up again on the way sucks!
