Also decreased maintenance: A top-end that last 1000 hrs. No maintenance at all until 500 hours. Kind of like a Honda Civic.

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Why doesn't the 2t last longer between a refresh?
In my new '98 husqvarna 250wr I was using maxima super M 40:1 pre mix. As the bike was almost off the warranty the thin base gasket sucked in. The mechanic at the dealer asked me what brand of two stroke mix was I using. I asked him why. He said the engine inside is covered in two stroke oil. I never changed my brand of two stroke oil. It's always maxima in my 98 bike. I did notice the jetting changed every time the temps changed.
Having fuel injection and oil injection in the 2t could make the engine run correctly all the time and extent the engine life too. At first the advancement of being liquid cooled allowed more port/ign timing. The LC took care of the extra heat. Now the advancement of fuel injection and oil injection could really pour on the performance.

How about one further on the forks, not just the valving but also the parts that guys are paying big bucks to add to the stock forks to make them work at all without harming them.
