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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Skyda and ignition covers update.

No, the bald head, beer gut and limp take care of that :D Chicks dig a project. Luckily I'm married so she's stuck with me.

The covers are currently at the laser engravers. Small chance they will be back here in the shop late this week, but most likely next week. I will post up pics when they arrive.

Black raven,

what part of Belgium are you in. I spent some time near Namur a few years ago. Can't wait to get back to Belgium. It's very cold here too. :cheers:

I went through a little town on the coast and picked up the best chocolates I have ever eaten. Can't remember the name of the town, but I remember those chocolates.

Im glad i got one of the "Classic" Skyda covers. I prefer the big 7602. I dont know what color to go with on the Ignition cover. Ill probably go with the silver /gray.

Mike, haha glad you like the "og" skyda logo.

The grey color actually matches the grey on your skyda cover pretty well. It doesn't show in the pic, but it has a slight metallic look to it.
 
New logo seems to be more popular than the others. I haven't received any death threats on this one so far. :lol: Probably going to stick with this one.
 
Ordered a clutch cover Thursday (IIRC) and it arrived Saturday. It truly is a thing of beauty....it almost seems a shame to fit it :D

I wonder if this can be fitted with oil in the engine - with the bike laying on it's side :excuseme:

No biggee if not, I'll just fit it at the next oil change.

Thanks for the great service.

Ya you can do it. But you will lose a bit of oil and it's messy.

Put the new cover on your living room table till the next oil change.:thumbsup:

Excellent idea. I went outside and retrieved the cover and it's now sitting on my desk for me to gaze at :applause:
 
Mercury, glad you got the cover. You can fit the cover with oil still in the bike I've done it about 3454 times. Lean the bike at a steep angle against a wall, or a shop bench, or all the way over on the floor if you like. Let her sit there for a minute or two then pull the brake lever off, pull the old cover, swap the oring, put the new cover on and replace the brake lever. The whole thing should take less than 1 beers time. :cheers:
 
Any plans for an ignition cover for '08 TE450's?

Hi, Cliff.

I ordered a bunch of your parts, but what I REALLY need is an ignition cover for my '08 TR450. Any plans soon, or will I have to order an OEM one from our local stealership?

Thanks for making such beautiful, high quality products!!

David
 
tongaroo,


Yes we are planning on making ignition covers for all the FI huskys here soon. Lots of stuff happening right now so I can't say for sure when they will be available.
