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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Grip Heater Switch

I just had grip heaters installed. Wired direct to the battery, with a small round rocker switch to activate. The switch is in a small metal plate that is bolted to the mirror mount. The wires and switch are exposed at the back and I'm really not happy with the way it looks. It is a 3 position switch, but not illuminated. I'm trying to find something that is handlebar mounted, 3 position(high, low and off), illuminated(so I don't forget to turn it off and run the battery down), and is enclosed and proper looking. Any known options?

Thanks!
 
The POPO of my bike mounted the switch on the back of the headlight pod. Easy to get to. Out of the wind. Concealed wires. Most of the work the POPO did on my bike is crap but this was pretty decently executed. Did require drilling a hole in the back of the headlight pod.
 
I don't mind drilling a hole if its a clean look. The lighted switch is most important to me if there is one available.
