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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Wow a busy summer. Not much time to ride or race. The Tm is gone. For different reasons none of them horrible. In all my hours of riding the bike 30 total. It never had any hiccups or reliability issues or any bolts come lose or anything it performed like a race bike should. The one conclusion I have come to is for me at least I think a steel frame is more forgiving. Along with rubber mounted bars. I had some problems with getting some parts and do not want to go into details because fingers were pointed at some people and I don't know what was true or not. The bike (2012 MX 250) would reward you when fresh and let you know who is boss when your tired. Whatever a guy or gal chooses to ride must have a competent dealer to feel confident in and know they can get the advice and parts they need fast. As I have a history of over 20 years with halls Husqvarna and a history with both Swedish and Italian husky I move onto a new era and must stand behind the Husqvarna crown I have come to love. With my 50th birthday approaching I took the liberty and put a deposit on my new ride. A 2015 Husqvarna etc 250 and am outfitting it with app $1800 in acc..... needless to say I am picking it up in two weeks or so and I'm stoked... I will still own past and I will own present husqvarnas. With all being good bikes!

Yea I'm stoked! I'm pretending I've never seen a KTM and that's what halls has is husqvarnas !! Reality check they are all good bikes a guy just has to have a good dealer to make it work and halls has been very good to me over the years. For me the Tm was better then the current gas gas for several reasons. The biggest being weight!!! Less quirks with the tm and better handling in.my opinion. And 11 Gasser with the 48mm zoke I would prefer over the new one at this point. Thought long and hard over a beta. I did not want electric start and need a dealer network that can revalve my suspension. Take my bikes on trade and overnight me parts when I need em!! It ain't orange and the name lives on! I have halls adding all sorts of goodies!! I'll post pics****************************************
