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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

another strange one from me, post ride clean up inspection after the dez dash reveals a hole in my airfilter. at the leading edge of the airfilter clamshell cover right near the rear master cylinder, after removing the outer cover there was a hole with a small piece of manzanita branch bark stuck there and a big dent into the backfire screen. From the outside there was no evidence of anything, the branch must have poked in between the seam of the outer cover as I rode through/past and yanked back out. It is an odd one. No harm done I dont think it happened from this ride, think it was from previous weeks single track riding, lucky not any heavy dust got in. Besides I have a new carb intake rubber manifold to install to replace the original which is dried out and starting to crack from age. So its a good opportunity to do some more disassembly and inspections. The bike has been starting and running flawlessly.
