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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey! Move Over, Will Ya?

It's getting a little crowded in here! I guess I better quit lurking in this forum now :)

Getting crowded in my garage, too...

I might have to start calling my garage the Dog Pound :D
5 Huskys
3 GasGases
2 KTMs
(the Suzuki and KTM on the patio don't count, do they?)

On my way to work now. Too bad it's raining :(

Man, the thrill of a new bike never gets old, does it?
 
So is that a newTR I see in the garage "poll position"?
Edit: oops, I was looking at the pic on my phone,
Congradulations!
 
Welcome to the forum, and it is nice to have another local with a Terra here. I was just in Oakland to meet with our state's leader! It was a comedy routine....
:)
It does look like work actually gets done in that garage of yours. And do not forget that you can always get more bikes if you get a couple of lifts !
 
So...how many are yours? Oooor are they all yours and if he's good you let him borrow one?
 
Looks like my house this summer. Fuinally brought myself to clear house and am down to basically a CR165, TE511 and TR650. :thumbsup: Well and some projects here and there.
 
Hey, looks like my garage! So, if the wife has most of the bikes, a messy garage is OK right? Ha!

Say Hi to Dan at MotoXotica. One of our trusty Husky dealers.
Looking forward to the ride report.

Hah...I wish! Just for the record, I haven't bought myself a bike since my WR125 back in March of 2010 :D

Thanks, Steve! Yeah, now I can keep up with Eric on his KTM 950 :lol:
It'll handle the commute into SF quite nicely, too. As long as it isn't too windy on the bridge, anyway :eek:
And, yes...pole position! :lol:

There's a ton of work that goes on in that garage all the time! We really have to thin the herd one of these days. I'll be selling my SV650, but it lives on the back patio under an EZ-Up type of thing so that won't gain me any room, unfortunately :(
And yes, our entire state's political situation is quite often a comedy routine :(

Well, only 3 of the 5 Huskys are mine (WR165, SM610, TR650,) one of the KTMs and one of the GasGases. So, I own 5 of the 10 bikes in there. My SV650 commuter lives on the patio so it doesn't count. Eric's KTM 950 was also parked on the patio when this photo was taken. It's usually wedged in there somewhere

Woodschick and her husband picking up her new Husky at MotoXotica, as you can tell by her garage she is a VERY good customer of ours!

Thanks, dave! I'm pretty happy with it so far, and it's about the furthest from perfect right now that it'll ever be. Can't wait to get it completely set up the way I like it. Tried to set the sag tonight but it is very apparent I will have to re-spring it. Got my controls and mirrors just how I like `em, and got my real genuine authentic Cafe Husky sticker installed :D Will take it out tomorrow if it's not raining!

I envy you something fierce, Kelly! We really need to do something...it's on the verge of being out of control :D

Was it worth the wait?:)

Oh, totally! I probably should have waited til I sold the SV, but then I wouldn't have a commuter and I'd be doomed!

Hey, the garage is his domain so if he wants to leave it messy I have no issue with it. Besides, at the moment we're neck and neck in the number of bikes we each have in there so I can't really say anything :busted:

Looks great to me! :applause:

I'm sure it does :lol:

Beat it up on some rough stuff before you start setting the sag.Those new parts are pretty stiff.The sag on mine increased over an inch after about 500 miles of rough rock/dirt roads.

BTW;Nice fleet...:applause:

Thanks, big-t! I'm pretty familiar with how stiff
the Huskys can be when new. The problem is it's
very tall for me right now...too tall for me to be
riding it in the rough stuff. I tried to back off the
preload but it's as soft as it goes. I'm getting 3/8"
sag right at the moment :-) Maybe I should have
Eric take it out and give it a good thrashing!
