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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

New motoz tires ROCK****************************************

I sold a friend some new Motoz Enduro IT tires. Shortly after i rode his bike (08 GasGas 300) and WOW, the tires were amazing. So i quickly ordered myself up a set and have about 160 hard trail miles on them. These are hands down my favorite tires period. Amazing traction everywhere, ridiculous stopping power, I just love these tires.

I'm excited to get my set. I have always liked getting new tires, but can't ever remember being excited about it. I'll throw in my 2 cents when i get a couple of rides on them.
 
I'll be waiting for the tires on one of of my two strokers to wear out and then I will be wanting to try a set.:thumbsup:
 
Those look nice! Has it been dry when you tested these or typical NW slop? It is hard to find a tire that will work on the hard slick clay, sticky slop, and all the loose rock we get. If this tire works in all those conditions and last that is awesome and I will have to try a set. Or maybe one of those fronts with the soft terrain rear?
 
I ordered a couple of sets of tires from Kelly...can't wait to get the Terrapactors on my TC 510...

Rode 80 miles at Ginger Creek (Trask), worked awesome on everything. i love these tires. mainly dry clay with roots and rocks and silt with some mud sections. Best NW tires i ahve ever tried. I'd stick with the enduro rear as well, it does mud just fine. Going to run the Terrapactor ST rear when the real mud hits again. I think that will be a winner as well. :thumbsup:
 
+1 For the IT Enduro. Best rear tire I've used to date. Haven't tried
one on the front yet. I'm about ready for a new one on the back. Was thinking about trying the HT Enduro for the summer months and hardpacked terrain. Jerry
 
I just received my Terrapactors and X-Circuits today...awesome looking tires, I can't wait to put them on...one more ride or so on my Pirellis and on to the Motoz...super quick ship. Thanx Kelly.
 
Kelly,

I put the X-circuits through a pretty good workout today and with 8-11psi and a rimlock they performed great. We were running around on some really tight single track and the only stuff that they were lacking a bit on was the really soft loamy uphill climbs and river gravel (dug trenches in the gravel). The front bit the clay and rocks well and I never felt like it was going to wash, kinda nice to pick a line and just "go"! Everything was cool as long as I kept my weight forward when it got slick, if I didn't the front would "hunt" a bit at moderate speeds but never felt out of control. All in all we did about 45mi off road and 70 on slab, the tires were surprisingly good on the road also.
Might have to give the Enduro IT's or the S/T's a go this fall when things get really slick.

cheers,

Mike

Yep, it is an intermediate tire and does not work great in slick stuff. The rear will hook up a lot better if you flip it around and run it backwards. I have had several customers try this and actually like running the rear X-circuit on backwards a lot better.
 
Thanks for the tip Kelly!

I'm really enjoying the Motoz tires and for the money vs. wear I think they are one heck of a deal:thumbsup: AWSOME IMO!
I plan on ordering a pair of enduro I/T's and a rear tracula s/t soon as fall is rolling around and the backwoods of Ohio can get downright treacherous. The opinion has been Michelin S12's as a rule of course for years here. Maybe I can lure a few converts?:excuseme: but you know how the katoom drivers can be, eh?:doh:

Many thanks for your patience with answering any questions I might have and for your EXCELLENT service!:applause:

cheers,

Mike
