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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Nice bike and all tricked up and ready to go. Good shopping pahusky, these bikes are just awesome in their all around capabilities. Ride safe.
 
Have you done any proper off road in it yet? They're a handful with all of the torque and highish centre of gravity
 
Ps. Got your priorities right! no need for a new coat of paint on the house when you've got a $15K USD bike in the driveway :) :) :)
 
dugg...

I have done some rutted logging roads. The best part is it's predictable. Plenty of low gear torque is a good thing, chug through/up most anything...not used to having anything behind the foot pegs that need to clear things, the pannier boxes make it interesting. But they are pretty quick to take off and put back on if things get real challenging. This rig is going to be mostly relegated to back roads and gravel, two-up at that. I have other pieces of equipment that are setup for different levels of carnage that will not be quite as expensive to tear up!

Oh, by the way house is vinyl and I did my shopping, managed to put this 2009(with OEM pannier boxes, tank bag, aftermarket windshield still in the box, skidplate and GPS) in the driveway for $10k and it 'only' had 14,700 miles on it!:cheers:
