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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Guess im getting faster, last night i was getting my foot out so far on a couple turns that the left shroud on my CR125 was getting stuck inside the top of my boot, kinda spooky going up the face of a jump with your foot stuck out there. Good thing i pulled the wood screws out of the shroud/tank mount so i could yank the shroud out to free my foot. Other than taping the top of my boots, any suggestions to keep this from happening.
 
I have a spot where the heel of my right boot get caught somewhere back around the brake master cylinder. If I lift it back in the opposite direction from where I was going it frees up but for that moment it really freaks me out. I still can't figure out how its happening and it seems to happen less as my boots get worn in.
 
my son gets his boots caught in shrouds all the time, im flirting with the idea of cutting part of shroud off.
 
I am of the opinion that the shroud thing is a valid engineering concept gone wild and turned into a fashion thing. Maybe some manufacturer will change direction on this someday and remove or reduce the silly things.

Same thing happens to me. I've been thinking of cutting mine too but I bet it's not going to look great afterwords. Doesn't tend to happen on trails which is where I spend almost all of my time so I haven't quite pulled the trigger yet but I would think for moto it could drive some people crazy. I have felt pretty sketch when I'm coming out of a corner and can't get my foot down to dab if I need to because it's caught on my shrouds.
