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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Had the pleasure of meeting and enjoying the Christmas eve meal with Mr. Bonamigo tonight, which in turn led to the garage where the US mini world championship rider #17 Michael Mosiman bike was parked. As it came off the track in the Czech repbublic.
Great to se a real factory level modern 2 stroke, every bit as trick as the full factory 2T bikes from...well when the Japanese and their team owners built full top tier 2 stroke machines for MX.

I am going to try to list some of the goodies both bling and performance, RG3 A-Kit level Mini suspension, RG3 billet triple clamps with rubber mounted bar riser, custom built Alloy fuel tank designed to fit around the additional radiator, both (OEM has one rad) Rads are hand built high volume, motor is a complete blu printed polished treated etc machine,custom cylinder, custom billet head, billet covers and bit pieces on the motor, billet extended clutch arm, oversize brake kits, extended hand built swingarm, billet hardware all over, as well as ultra deep dished head screws and bolts throughout, hand built subframe in steel in superlight CrMo construction. ARC levers, Ti footpegs, dont know how much Ti is used (per FIM regulations) but the axles looked Ti and I never asked. Hand built protype pipe and silencer, when I get back over I will ask to get in close for some photos,
PS she is for sale and 2 of the 3 have been sold. 14K gets you this machine.
 
Oh my, what a beauty! I'd speculate that it has ~28-30 rwhp and a power/weight ratio similar to a built 250f.....
