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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Well ain't that cool ....

I've been wondering how these guys build and test bikes ... ESP since Husky was putting out bikes for how many yrs that the fuel pump would not stay attached in the tank ... Since I'm an EX tester, how the heck do you not find that bug when testing a new product AND then make the same bug for how many yrs? Does not matter as those guys are out of a job now... Maybe the poor testing and company defunct were connected?

Not that I'm pointing at the workers at the previous company ... Bugs are left in all products and it is not the testers call to fix a bug at least everywhere I worked at for software testing... Testers find and report bugs... Upper management decides what to do with all bugs.
 
Cool and interesting. I'd say its a very good firm. The KTM and new huskys are very good looking. Most people I speak to love the looks of the new husky. Cool link, thanks.
 
As Karl Marx repeatedly explained, in a highly developed capitalist economy, the superficial is of more importance than the essence. `Tis all window dressing, the content´s gone. All we´ve got now are the Kaytee decals.
 
So what I got out of that was they have been working hard on marketing. No surprise they are very good at it. It does seem to add several thousand to the price tag however.

I'll have to get back to you on this one but my first thought is, where did all the greenbacks go if it all the content is gone?
 
Karl Marx? C'mon guys. :banghead: Is KTM winning basically every single offroad championship on "the superficial"? You don't have to be on the KTM bandwagon, but this isn't some sort of bourgeoisie uprising, it's just a change of ownership.

It's not exactly like MV Augusta or BMW is a non-advertising company for commoners. :thinking:
 
The riders here who have seen the new white Huskies really liked them also .... Maybe someone here will buy one before I do .... It'll be a racer guy if that happens most likely. These guys will spend on a race bike, but for the woods, its just about gonna be a older 2t ... With a few blue 4t bikes in the mix (and a few red, non-husky, ones) ...
 
He was also quite good at inspiring revolutions that resulted in the deaths of millions, so there's that.
