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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SM 630 License Plate

MASTER_E

Husqvarna
C Class
So here's the license plate mount I made. Pretty basic, all you need is a marker, drill, four windscreen well nuts, four license plate bolts and this fancy piece of .25" plastic I machined. The blinker assemblies I'd like to redo a bit but they were done a while ago and are pretty basic as well...

I did some license plate holder myself. Made two basic sheets and mounted them with the screws of the back light to the back fender. First sheet is for the turn signals and the second one is for the license plate, license plate light and the reflector...

I moved my plate like Master_E did on my 630 too. Today i had to turn in to a alcohol test by the highway, and the police was not happy with my numberplate in this angle. Now i have to show my bike at the local traffic station with the number plate in it's original position. :banghead:
 
Mine is similar to the OP's, but I just took a Dremel to the stock mudflap to make the plate holder, leaving the factory black stuff intact all the way out to the end of the white fender, including the part that holds the turn signals.

Here's a pic I have online. Trying to put it up via my phone and it's not cooperating. Not sure if the link will work.

Same here.... I just hacked-off all the lower stuff. Then, sanded it down so you'd never know it's missing. I think it looks really good. Plus I didn't have to mess with the turn signals.

The only down-side would be if a cop writes me up. I'd have to buy a replacement for the piece I hacked to get the bike legal again.

Yeah. Law enforcement is pretty lax about that stuff here. If you're insured and have your endorsement, you're usually good to go.

Sorry it's off topic, but what kind of sliders are those? Nice that they can be used to lift the bike!
 
I would love to do that but would need to come up with a license plate light. I have ran across at least one cop that gave me a fix it ticket for not having the light on my hacked VFR plate holder.

I've never had that problem here, but if I did, there's room above the plate for the stock plate light
