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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

OK not to exciting but good useful product. These are not made by us but by a very nice fellow and US vet here in the USA. We are offering them because we like the idea and believe in the product, it is simple and inexpensive way to make your engine last longer, the design incorporates ridiculously strong magnets and is said to be the best. We received some for evaluation, love the product and will be up on our site soon as we sort out which threads go with which bike.

Not exciting but good solid product. thanks.

If the magnet is strong enough it might actually trip the turn signals sensors in the roadbeds.:)

I had a hard time snapping that pic as they all wanted to snap together. :D
 
Steel. No, comes with the sealing system which is the tapered area with 0-ring backup. One did have a crush washer on it. I installed that on on my WXC250, does not leak a drop. (big one at the bottom of my pix above)
 
Motosportz: Steel is the way to go. Like material galling (aluminum threaded screws going into aluminum seizing) is a problem, unless molybdenum anti-seize is used. An O-ring back-up is nice.

I did not understand what you meant about one having a crush washer on it. Do you mean that a crush washer is required?
 
I'm interested. It looks like the magnets are stronger (rare earth vs. ferrite) than the OEM one, and you get a magnet on both plugs instead of one.

If you have a set that fits the TE630, I just might have to place an order.
 
Yes, we have them all in stock now. Email if anyone wants one. We will have them on the site shortly. Sorry, been a little swamped.
