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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Sherco 300i short loop test ride

Got to ride my litmus test loop (short but telling) on the OEM stock 2013 Sherco 300i. Great front end glued to the ground front end, great motor. Just a super easy bike to ride and ride fast. Stock suspension was very loose for me (I'm too heavy), all this bike would need for me is proper springs.
If 300i riders both Dave Knight and Anders Eriksson like it, for sure it can be set up for big riders.
This bike picks up perfectly where the Husky 310 line dies. This is a very clear option for those like me are fans of the 310 (300cc 4T) formula. Thanks Chilly.

I did not have my TXC310R its back in the shop. I had my 2011 TE310, and back to back it was very evident that the blackhead is good but much slower revving than the new tech 300cc

In the shop again? Sorry man, that really sucks. I went to go rent the 310 for the last race of the season and they gave me the 13 310. Amazing the difference between the two. The 13 310 it's almost hard to keep the front wheel down :). The Sherco is really interesting but with new bike prices I'd probably go with their 2 stroke.
 
not a Husky issue per se it was a material fail of an aftermarket part, just one of those things and no real fault of the parts company, it was subcontracted part fail.
