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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just passing on another use of a good product.

Use it for keeping the mud/dirt out of the footpeg pin/spring area by taking one and cutting it in half cross ways and streching it over the footpeg and securing it with a cable tie at the open ends.

This will also make sure that the pin could not fall out and aid if the spring brakes that the peg returns to the normal.

Hope it helps

Later,
 
I saw and used the Acerbis units and they work well but do not stop soupy mud and sandy mud from going inside and packing up .. Then the problem being you can't see whats inside lurking.. you know like when you clean a bike real, real well and take the frame guard off and it looks like you didn't wash it... lol

There is sand in NJ? LOL
 
Joe,

For the rest of the viewers it is just real,real tiny rocks that once we northern folk shatter the big ones in NY & PA they flow downstream and end up in N.J and their locals call it sand.
 
Ok Carl lets see a picture of your finished product,and the next time you come down to Delaware we'll shoe you how we mix the "crushed tiny rock" with our very own brand of clay to make a beautiful blend of wear out anything you can throw at it.lol Happy new Year
 
Just got back from the Hangover H/S in West Virgina and the sealing around the footpeg pivot area was dry and clean.. 6" snow on the ground and completly frozen with ice on the bottom , 16 degrees and 40 mph guts steady all day.. took the bike out of the trailer after leaving it in overnight(12 degrees) and every pivot point was frozen solid, shifter, rear brake, chain and just barely rolled... Foot peg action was like they day it came of the floor..

I will take pictures after the thaw process and then we will see how clean it is..

Delaware.. One of the greatest places to race.. even better if it rains..
