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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Sprocket bolts for an SMR511

Just wondering if anyone knows where to get some high grade sprocket bolts that will fit the SMR's new hub. I grabbed a couple of packs from supersprox (class 12.9) when I bought some CS sprockets only to find they're too short.

I'd prefer a larger allen wrench socket instead of the smaller OEM style uses (easy to round out). Length wise they need to be at least 35-40mm when most brands only come in 30mm :( I'd go OEM but I don't have 6 years for Husky AU to get a hold some at a ridiculous price.
 
If you do come across new bolts, you want grade 10.9 and not 12.9's. 12.9's have great pull strength, but lousy shear, vice versus for the 10.9's.

What is the bolt size you wish to have?
 
Just after a few sets to stick in the tool box, with frequent sprocket changes at the track I prefer to swap out the locking nuts after a few changes, especially after destroying a hub and wrecking a swingarm previously. I'm a little overly cautious.. The small allen socket on the OEM bolts like to round out a bit when I'm rushing too.
