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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

So just did my oil and the past three times I've had metal shaving on my magnet and replaced my clutch plates due to this what's wrong ? Do I need a rebuild ? The bike still runs AMAZING
 
Well what sort of shape are the shavings, colour and size? Are they literally like iron filings?
Could be the teeth bedding in on your gears could be your selector forks wearing down also could be the hardening going from a bearing somwhere.
Or a bearing cage.... Pictures man
Oh and whats the age of the bike in question?
 
2009wr 300 it shifts off sometimes and they are like shavings just little bitty bitty black pieces they are like little splinter I can ride it today and get pics tonight
 
Mine has that crap on plug every time since new. As long as not chunks then normal-mine usually looks 'furry' on magnetic tip of plug. Bits of clutch I'd imagine
 
the itty bitty black stuff is normal. large splinters or chunks are what signifies trouble. take a pic for us, most here change oil pretty often. try not go over 5 hours or so. they dont hold much oil..change often. some oils are much better than others for reducing the shavings for me
