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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Polisport Fork Guards on a 2013 TE 511

In comparison I must mention that the Acerbis wrap around just a little more on the lower stanchon. This is good for me because I just had to cannibalize a perfectly good fork to have the lower replaced on my new race bike due to rock scratches that cut the seal.
 
Yes on both counts. KYB CC TXC 449 forks on that machine. Just completely rebuilt with seals, bushings, springs and valving for my big ass.

In the background is 1970 Econoline 200 custom "Super Van" Ordered direct from Ford by my Dad for hauling firewood and a CZ motocross machine. It's basically a 3/4 ton pickup chassis with an extended van body on it. Twin I beam front suspension that had NEVER needed an alignment, heavy duty low range rear end and the original 302 that has been completely rebuilt and balanced/ blue printed. Punched to ~306 with the original block, crank, and heads. Matched Edelbrock cam, lifters, and intake manifold, Accel electronic ignition, Mallory hot coil and other stuff. Been wanting to paint her but finding rubber is hard for that body style. Still hauls bikes and it's my current official race camping machine.
