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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc is the the ultimate husky smoker or what!!

My area was very big on ATK's, lots of 250 LC's at the races (And Can Am's before that.). If Frank White had brought in 250 and 320's they would have sold out around here!
 
I would like to see the dynosheet on that engine:=). 85hp with a stock carb for example? Don't think so. I have done a lot to my 500 and it gave 63bhp at the wheel, which is around 70 at the crank. 41,5mm carb, dynoport handbuilt pipe, Coolhead cylinder head, ported exhaust, intake and transfers, forged Wiseco bla bla. A standard 500 of that year gives around 48 at the wheel on the dyno. Everything else is just fantasies. there's a lot of speculations about the power of these engines.

Well, I'm pretty sure you guys weren't on the same dyno....Dyno numbers can fluctuate greatly between dynos of different brands.

And even the same dyno, same bike on different days will vary substantially.
Same day, same dyno, or it doesn't mean squat.
Bannedcr500riders website has some big hp builds if anyone is interested.
