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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just got through wrapping my header on the 449
Can't wait to see if I don't burn my leg any more

I have been wanting to fix this since I got the bike. All my ridding pants have burn marks on them. I didn't want to wrap it since I was afraid it would still be too hot. I bought some red and black weave carbonfiber but can't find the right high temp resin for my cure method. I think I'm just going to pick one of these up for $50.

Hope it fits.

Consider wrapping it the other direction so the its like fish scales as to not go against the grain while riding it will stay on better if you bush whack, and don't be afraid to add wraps of .032 safety wire every few inches or so. looks good
 
The exhaust system on my te610 is wrapped from the head to the silencers in a dark gray/black wrapping. Looks good but still very hot to the touch
