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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE/TC Robertaccio's TE300 "Bullet Proof Bling" Thread........

PS for me its of no interest, my tank is large enough for what I do. If I can go 50 miles thats fine (and I can)
 
you could mount an XC big tank and install wht kato plastic with some Husky graphics Im sure, if you're after at bigger tank.
 
this is the bullet proof thread, Ive been shooting some serious bullets at this machine lately , its a great machine with minmal prep.
 
What seen hard to understand is the fact that Jake aulbright Factory Husky Racer 911 DOES NOT have a bigger tank. He still has to race with the stock tank and pit the bike using MILK JUGS you know the same way the Zip Ty Racing 511 effort had to pit the BMW/Husky

I did see that at one race he had a modified KTM Tank on his bike But talk in the pits was Husky did not like that so back on with the little tank

At Round 3 in Idaho Jake had to pit twice on loop 1 where Nic , Beta rider only pitted once. Well look at how close they were at the finish. Maybe a bigger tank might have equaled a Husky win

We will see because in a few weeks we head to Ut where loop one is over 50 miles Big Tank no stop, little tank must stop and use milk jugs filled with Husky Factory Racing Gas


Just posting what I see there must be some sort of reason for it

Haha, did we not have any shark fins left? Danny and I were building the shark fins for the Factory team the other day and I snapped a tap off in one of the carriers. The aluminum is hardened and then hardened with anodizing to the point it felt like tapping tool steel.

That's why I always use carbon steel taps instead of high speed steel taps. You can shatter the remains with a punch if you break one off in a hole.

Sorry for the highjack, thought all of us could use a set of these tap extractors. Mine are old BluePoint brand but they are still made and available. Read below, A set of these could solve many problems.

Hey Mike,
Bluepoint/Snap-On tools has made specialty broken tap extractors for years. These are similar to the straight shank type screw extractors with the sliding nut that you turn the extractor with, that can be lowered right down to the surface. The only difference is you don't have to even drill a hole. The set I have has specific sizes for common taps for each size and little hardened profiled pins that slide tightly into the flutes of the broken tap against the extractor shank and through the sliding nut into the broken tap while its threaded into whatever it's broken off in. You then turn the nut on the extractor shank and it backs the broken tap right out by the taps flutes themselves. There are several types for 2 ,3 and 4 flute taps in all sizes in my old set which has to be over 50 years old and the pins are kind of eyeball shaped profile looking at them from the ends. Which is the shape of the flutes on the tap and edge of the existing hole its broken off in. You never know when you will need these things but they work well and are non destructive.
You can buy them from "Brownell's" or "Walton's tools" nowadays.
