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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Will post pics later! Super stoked about this. I haven't ridden for 4-5 years now but getting back into it with a new bike :)

I'm still a total noob to moto. Any suggestions on what to do with the bike in terms of protecting it? I know I'll be dropping this bad boy in no time. I'll be riding primarily dirt / single track for now and will be hauling my bike.

So far, I've purchased an Obie Link guard. Anything else I should look into? Does it make sense to remove turn signals, head light, brake light for now if I don't plan on using them just yet? Or should I just keep em on and replace as we go?

First new bike and just want to make sure I'm taking good care of it! Plus, my wife is letting me get some more goodies!!!
 
I wouldn't replace anything until I broke it but count on braking the signals and tail light lol. Just get out there and ride it. It will look like crap soon, it's a dirt bike. Have fun, make sure you post some pictures!
 
Bulletproof radiator guards! Tires
Remove the signals if you are not going to be on the road. Otherwise they will break and you want to have these for when you sell.
 
Shark Fin if you ride the rocks!
And as said earlier, skid plate, bark busters.
 
Interested to hear how you like it. Not too many 250 threads here. I'll just add that the rear tail section is the most vulnerable to being broken. You may want to consider cleaning that up. Front signals are well protected so unless you know you'll never need them, it's not a big deal to leave them on.
