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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husqvarna out and about town.

This ride was the last one before a scheduled periodic valve check, and this was the first time that I finally had to adjust one of the intakes. The bike has over 7600 miles on it. I ought to bake the bike a cake or something to celebrate.:D

I guess if it didn't spit at you and the Husky, it approved.....
 
There were actually two of those critters taking up space on the sidewalk. I decided that nothing ventured, nothing spat on and kept my distance, even though they seemed friendly enough. It would have been a long unpleasant ride back with camel chew all over me. It was unpleasant enough, the night the skunk got the front end of the bike.:thumbsdown:
 
The TE has been a very "less troublesome" machine. I have never owned any other four stroke, dirt or street that managed to go 7600 miles before a valve got out of adjustment.

My SV650 went 20,000 before having to adjust one valve:)
Yeah, yeah, I know..."it's a twin" ...but split it in half and you've got 325cc's going 10,000 miles...right?? :p

That Husky of yours is lookin' mighty purdy there, gal :thumbsup:
