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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Lectron 250/300 metering rod testing results.

I did a bunch of testing this weekend on the 250/300 rods. Went through a bunch of them. My bike was running very good (much better than stock) with the 3-1 we ship with but felt for my riding style (lugging a lot on technical trails) and temps (mild) the 3-1 rod might be slightly lean. Like I said my bike ran great but seemed like it should have more pull and felt semi lean. I tried a bunch of different rods and settled on the 3-2. This adds more bottom and mid fuel and ends up the same on top. This for me and my bike added a good bit of torque / pulling power. I still need to adjust it as I am slightly rich now but I am nit picking. It for sure has more bottom end power, nice mid and same top. Feels like I put a high comp piston or went from a 250 to a 300 type thing. Just more meaty pull.

For guys in hotter temps or wanting better MPG the 3-1 is probably the right rod. For trail luggers in milder temps you might want to give the 3-2 rod a try. These are readily available from Lectron or if there is a lot of interest I'll stock them and sell them at my cost to get them to my customers. I feel this is a noticeable improvement on an already good running setup. If you feel your bike does not pull as hard as it should or feels slightly lean it might be worth a go. I really liked the added pull down low and into the mid and felt it pulled a good bit better up big hills and coming out of corners a gear high. Kinda gives the sensation of more cc's.

Thanks
