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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Motosportz kickstand... seriously :>)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make these for 05 and 08 TE!

Surely the guy in charge of stand development for Huskys is now unemployed, begging for food somewhere?

More likely got promoted to integrating the parts supply chain into BMW Corporate, and he's decided to implement a 'just in time' strategy where they will save millions by not stocking anything and parts will be manufactured on demand.:lol:
 
Bolt or spacer sizing

Was just trying to mount up the new kickstand on my 09 TXC250 and found that the lower mounting bolt is a solid 15 -20mm longer than the stock bolt after accomodating the with of the kickstand and spacers. See the pic below. The threaded mount on the frame is not threaded all the way through, so the bolt bottoms out long before the kickstand is properly mounted.

Did anyone else encounter this? Should I have larger spacers?
