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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

midway through its last 2 rides my sachs shock has turned into a pogo stick-lost all compression damping and just bounces-for a few minutes and then comes good. no oil leaks everything looks ok but its like riding on a trampoline and dodgy as all hell! bikes a year old, is it just time for a shock service? its copped a bit of a hammering but old showa shock went 2 years and was still going strong(admittedly i push my wr300 much harder than old crf450x). what does a service entail-just oil and gas change?
 
I'm guessing you had the nitrogen leaked out.
I had a similar problem with an XR400, I just pumped it up with regular air (78% Nitrogen) all was fine after that. Find out how much pressure it should be.

Regards, Bart

is that what gas is in there originally-just compressed air? thought it would be some flash gas that will be expensive to replace. how long usually until you blokes get your suspension serviced for just basic trail riding and very occasional mx riding? didnt wanna touch my forks till i do a seal cos im cheap but still havnt had a leaking fork seal yet(run seal savers and they seem to be working). KYB lasting much better than old showa(3-4 seals in less than 2 years!)
