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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Juha riding the TE449 snow bike

Must need to be in the right terrain. I've been on a few CR500AF snowbikes and they were ok, but not better than a sled anywhere I could ride. Less fun than a dirtbike, icebike, or snowmobile. Of course, if money was no problem, I'd have one!
 
Looks pretty easy to make. Maybe when I get bored. Oh yea, and that's David Kamo below.

There are lots of different styles of these, but I really want to try to build one. The hardest part is the track and track drive. I'm out in Colorado in a couple weeks to ride sleds, I will have to look at how they do the drive system and see what could be adapted...
 
Wow that is really cool... I have never even heard of those bikes before. That looks like it would be a blast to ride.

Kyle I hope you get a shot at seeing or riding one. And if you do, you have to get a vid of one if you can. :notworthy:
 
Went to a ride day a couple of weeks ago for the timbersled mountain horse version of these. I've had the chance to ride a couple different brands and the timbersled is by far the best I have ridden. Have ridden husaberg 450 and 570, a KTM 450 and a monster KTM smr 560 that is bored and stroked to a 610 with head work!!!:eek: My favs are the husaberg 570 for it's nimbleness and the monster KTM, because it's always good to have more power.
