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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Yeah, the open class (for all intensive purposes) is redundant now IMO as the riders in that calss just ride 450's. In the "good old days" you used to see the big 500cc 2-stroke beasts in that class.

US have a real problem with who they put in the 450 and the open classes between Dungey and RV. Dungey is the defending champ so feels he has the right to the #1 plate and the first gate pick that goes along with it. RV feels he should though because he's the current points leader and traditionally that's who gets the first pick of which class to ride in the team.

A few of the teams looks quite strong this year, but the US team looks particularly strong. The Aussie team is not looking too bad at all, and I'm lookinf forward to seeing how Matt Moss does in the 250 class against the foreign field. Hope Reed finds his mojo again before then too so he can stick it to Dungey, RV, and the Euro riders.
 
you guys answered it but the FIM rule book is funny
MX3 290-500cc 2 stroke, 475-650cc 4 stroke........and MX1 and MX2 bikes may participate.
in other words, open class run what you brung.
 
whatever the guys normally race in MXGP and their respective national MX classes are what you will see,,,,,,99% chance will be all 4 strokes.
Enduro is cooler in that sense with all the many brands and different type engine machines out there.
