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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

i like the 6th gear and i have owned and commuted on an xr600 so..
i am assuming it has a cartridge fork like the xr and a similar rear ?
it looks like it's easy to add an fcr/tm pumper as well
thanx
 
Yes it is a showa cartridge fork. Nice broad transmission. They are good bikes but like any bike that is 20 years old condition matters.
 
the condition should be good as the motor and bearings were just done .... i am waiting to hear from owner
i just sold an ktm lc4 and do not understand why they have no 6th gear as well as my xr6 and i need to carry a f/sproket in case i hit serious dirt
 
i talked to the owner and realize i need to get/build some kind of baja kit to make this a usefull backup commuter as it only has a headlight and tailight
need to do a little more research
 
I put a Baja Designs kit on a '93 and a Malcolm smith kit on a '95. They probably don't sell a specific kit for a '94 anymore. Currently, I like the looks of the Tusk universal kit. Turn signals, brake/tail light and horn run off external battery so you can leave the stock headlight AC and don't have to cut into your stock wiring. I would rig the tail/brake light to run off the bikes AC power with the headlight. You'd have to charge the small battery for the LED blinkers and horn, but the charge should last a long time. https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/1156/26724/Tusk-Motorcycle-Enduro-Lighting-Kit
