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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rego sticker Protection

On my TE 310 I bought second hand the rego sticker is stuck around the fork near the headlight with some sought of clear plastic contact. Its not the stuff kids cover their school books with its thicker. I've been to bike shops and stationery shops but no one has been able to help. It protects the rego sticker perfectly with out the need to use cable ties and although it sticks to the fork it's easy to get off. I can't reuse because I can't get the old rego sticker off without taking the adhesive off it. Anyone know what this clear plastic film/skin is and where I can get it?

I just use a laminating machine for the lable then attach with cable ties on top of fork leg ,waterproof and easy to remove at rego time.

I do the same, but the clear stuff you are talking about is made by factory effex, bought some today from my local bike shop, but laminating is easier and if the cops want to have a look at the label, its easy just to snip off the cable ties.
 
Similar stuff is used on bicycles to prevent frame chipping, cables rubbing etc.. Not sure how wide you need it.. But the stuff I have and use is
2" wide x 10' long.. It's called "Bike Saver Protective Tape".. Your local bicycle store may have some in stock.. Hope this helps.. Cheers.. :)
