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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SERVICE THOSE BEARINGS!!!

Thanks Indorider,

i saw that page after i posted, now i just need to find out what drill size and tapsize and buy new bearings for the next service and my mate and i will do it to our bikes.

is there a way of putting the grease nipples in the bolt head and not the linkage itself, will that weaken the bokt too much?

Unfortunately, none of the bolts are hollow and I'm sure the forces they are subjected to make a good reason for that. Once you buy the zerks you'll know the thread size and the tap that you'll need will tell you the drill size. I haven't decided whether to do it or not. It's such a simple procedure to pull it all apart for an inspection I may just leave it like it is. I also fear getting the bearings with the hole in them may be a bit difficult here (hell, just getting the regular bearings was a bit of a chore).
 
The VID reminds me alot of here ... Right down to the Ferrari patch on the back of the rider in front you ...


Has anyone tried the bearings without a removable seal on your bike anywhere?

I had problems on a differnet machine with water ingress past a bearing and we replaced the bearing with a bearing with like a teflon cage with no space anywhere and it needed no lube, the cage was slick enough and it was a high speed high temp bearing.
was thinking of these bearing might be the go cos they are sort of self lubricating and fully sealed.
