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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I wanna say thanks.

I want to say thanks to the folks of Café Husky. Thank you for being non dramatic, thank you for being real, any question I have asked or answered has never been met with a internet shit storm. There is some real quality people that ride hear. I have been a member for many years, and I can say anyone hear is welcome for a bad cup of coffee at my shop. Why say thanks now, no real reason, it just gets highlighted anytime I go to another sight and watch the pissing match over something simple, such as Ford vs chevy, Toyota vs Honda, PDS vs linkage- they are all good, and all a POS in their own right! So thanks, no I have not been ripped on yet by any sight, but I sure have been to sights where an intelligent question is asked, and that person is shredded. Thank you all for not being that person. Love this sight, my 04 Husky, and yes my 15 KTM 300 smoker ( I still feel a little dirty on that last part, but it is true.)
 
I love this forum for the aforementioned reasons.
Even if recently I haven't posted much, I'm PROUD of being a member here.
This thread is definitely not amiss.
 
100% agree. I stop in almost all the other forums frequently for news, info or gossip. If someone doesn't answer the OP's question in the first 4-5 replies the thread almost always degrades into a pissing contest between several keyboard warriors. Very little info is ever presented.

Here is the complete opposite. Great place!
 
None of you guys know anything ****************************************
about oil, suspension, jetting, engine life, clutches, gears, boots, helmets----ZERO!!
What I say is Godlike in my great knowledge.

My backyard slip shod shed is a beehive of high tech engineering and laboratory testing to the highest state of the art quality.

You all know nothing so you better listen to me about anything to do with your Moto hobby. I am the God of the information age. The almighty moto internet information God. (hahahahhaaaa) Love you guys!!!
 
Let me tell you ALL something about oil including THE almighty above... haha jk great forum and I hope I can share some of my advice and experiences and some one can learn as much as I've learned from being a member here. Thanks to mods and everyone for sharing! Keep the cafe great.
 
The Cafe has been great for me. I wondered if I screwed up buying my 449 at first until I found this jewel of the interweb. Got tons of help with set-up, bullet proofing and maintenance. I feel like it's my responsibility to help the next guy with all I've learned here. It's kinda like a full circle thing.

It has made me great friends, and helped get me into racing. That led me to my next Husky which is now my race bike. The racing led to more friends and a great club. I'm even sort of involved with a race shop and get to ride with an AMA Hall of Famer, that's fun and exciting too.

To think if I hadn't found this place...I'd sure be riding, but would I be having this much enjoyment?:rolleyes:
 
Confession. I sold the 310 but have stuck around because of the great members here. Hope to catch up with some of you for a ride on the dirt, or road, whether it be on a Husky or not
