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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Here is the new Rouser 200cc bike. Seen lots of them here but this is the first Bajaj bike I've seen here that is water cooled ... Pics are a little bad but good enough you can see the details ....

Also notice the branding on this new model bike as compared to the other Bajaj Kawi bikes pictured below...

Kawi name sits firmly on top of the Bajaj name in the prime location.

These numbers I sure are weird to ya ... To help a little bit here, my 2 bedroom APT is 4,500P per month ... ~$105...
 
Here's the previous models types ... This bike looks new also but a 180cc bike ... No mono and no water here...

That Kawi message here says 'assembled by Kawi' ... Meaning parts come into the country (to save on taxes) and there are assembled by Kawi. No real Kawi branding.

This is the version bike I see here lots ... No preimeter frame on previous bikes ... Its a Japan thing on those frames..

Not too hard to follow that Kawi supplied new technology to Bajaj and got better branding on this initial model bike. But who knows? It's a small world really...

What will be interesting to me, is, will these new fangled water-cooled engines replace the air-cooled models that have the entire market almost, before I enter the carbon-cycle ... I'll go out on a thin limb here and say no for a few reasons.
 
the real question is, do these water cooled motors they will see have a good power upgrade over previous mills?
