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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

peg lowering?

I have a 2006 te 610 and I am looking for a way to lower my pegs. I cant get my riding boots between the shifter and the peg in the stock position and was hoping to find something prebuilt since my time is limited due to work. If need be I will build something myself, maybe someone has something already and could email me some drawings? Thanks
 
Three threads for you:

1) I believe PivotPegz and Fastaways both sit slightly lower, but pricey...

2) Instead of third party pegs, some folks have cut off the bolt collars and welded them on again, see for example:

3) Finally, while fussing with the pegs, its worth a little care - maybe consider replacing the stock bolts for example. Some folks have had bolts bending, shearing and falling out, see for example:

I have size 14 Alpinestar boots and find I can shift with the stock pegs, after taking the rubber inserts out, but I have to lift my foot to do so. Gotten used to that. But I'd love me a pair of Pivot Pegs.
 
Thanks, I have removed the rubber already and I am just about to tight to spend $150 on pegs to lower about 10mm so looks like a little fabrication this weekend.
