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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

May part out 310R 2013.

Hey guys . A few months ago I bought 2 310R's for me and my brother to ride as dual sports. Anyway, he couldn't deal with the seat height and decided that he didn't want it. So he went out and bought a BMW R1200gs, Leaving me with his 310R along with mine.
I ended up buying a Strada (love it) and the 310's sit unused. I do love the bike and will keep mine forever.
Thinking of parting his out so I could keep some parts for myself as spares.But also give him a couple of bucks back.View attachment 32514camera2013 373.jpg
The question is: Is there any interest in parts such as the motor,fuel injection,suspension ETC?? Sell it?Part it?keep it?
 
I suspect in a couple years the parts will be more valuable than they are now. On the other hand, selling the bike is probably easier than doing it piecemeal.
 
Yeah, with low mileage like that, it's hard to imagine that it would be better to sell as parts. I would think selling as a whole would be a much better idea.
 
Just don't do it on principle. I really hate to see a well engineered perfectly running piece of machinery broken down. its just not cricket Old Boy.
 
Keep it together as a spare! At some point yours will exhibit one of the dreaded issues that plague these bikes. While you are fixing one, you ride the other. Invite friends who don't have a bike to go riding.

I'd never go to the trouble to part out a working bike either, just seems wrong...
 
Im still undecided,If there is any real interest I hope to post it in the classified section. I would prefer to sell the motor intact perhaps with the good fuel injection to someone with the old mikuni FI. Or perhaps to someone with a blown up 250 looking for a big bore upgrade. It is still a complete bike so im not going to start with a small part like the stator.

Its pretty bad that we need an extra bike to fix the one we ride, but its gonna be the truth in a year or two. Good idea
 
Stopped at the trail head of the "French Louie trail" Notice the sign..."NO Motorized Vehicles" I really do hate NY. I hiked down the trail a few miles and it looked perfect.So no place to ride really and this is in the adirondacks 5 hours north of Long Island. Yes there was Park Rangers,we got tickets for the RM that was with us $350.709.jpg
