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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Yeah, well, I hate you both because my WR suspension is at Les's and the only riding I did today was my daily commute into San Francisco:(

Sounds like a rockin' good time :thumbsup:

Don't feel like the lone ranger, the only riding I've got in for months now is the occasional commute to work :banghead:.
On the lighter side, crunch time is over and things are beginning to to settle down so I may get ride time in before long.:applause:

yeh, sorry man, no tengo la camera and we only stopped twice. you know how it is when ya get in the ether, gotta keep twisting that grip. next time, i promise. :thumbsup:
 
I got a chance to take the bike out today for the first time in about 4 weeks. It felt so good!

The bike ran flawlessly (well as good as the TMX can), and fast. My buddy was on a WR250F (the Yamaha version, haha). He commented several times that about how I was able to flick and manhandle the bike.

I cannot wait until after I do my summer overall. Better tires, 144 kit, PWK, and large tank (???).

yervelcome. fixed the flat last night. maybe i should carry less spare pistons and more spare tubes? :doh:
 
my wr would have known better than to try that. but would have made it across anyways.

it is, the most interesting bike in the world.....

"i dont always ride, but when i do, it's on WR....stay thirsty my freinds."
 
walkin' on water aint just fer god's anymore ;).... when yer on a WR125? anything is possible! :busted:
 
There are skeptics. I have been chatting with a fellow who tests bikes for a publication and when I mentioned that the WR125 had quite the cult following, he poo-pood the idea that the bike could have any sort of measurable powerband worthy of taking on a gnarly trail. I can't wait to check one out and be able to report back to him that the claims are all true.
 
:lol:...magazine riders.

you can take whirl on mine DD when i come down there to claim my beers... ;)

I we have gnarly crap here in the NW and i have to say the WR125 will climb with the best of them. The 125 LOVES to gobble up technical stuff. I have topped many a nasty hill and sat there waiting for friends to stop swearing at their 300's and 450 while they overheat and blow water. I pride myself in the ability to climb nasty hills and this bike does not limit me. On open fast loose hills the 300/450 will walk away from you but you'll just pass them on the next flat or down hill. :thumbsup:

When things get nastly sloppy rainny muddy snowy etc the 125 rules.
