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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rear brake disc loose on '09

Less than 300 miles on the bike and I noticed the rear brake disc rattling. All of the bolts are loose!! But they feel tight. They must be loaded with locktite. Tried to tighten the first bolt (6mm) and it snapped like it was made of plastic. Anyone had this problem?
 
It is a floating disc design. There is some good discussion about these in a few other Cafe Husky threads. Search "floating disc" :thumbsup:
 
Sorry to hear you broke a bolt before posting. I had the same concern, but luckily did a search here first.

The sound that the floating disc makes is pretty annoying.
 
Never seen or heard of a "floating" disc before but I learned a lesson. Don't always assume that something is wrong. Got the broken bolt out this afternoon with an extractor.
