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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I am on the fence about selling my 510, I got the bike intending it to be my ds. but it is too much a dirt bike. So I got the 610 and hit a home run with this bike as it is exactly what I was looking for. The 510 is a brute in the woods but a total gas when it opens up. I wanted something for the single line and just got a 08 honda 250x with only 59 miles on it and love this bike as it has a full FMF Q4 exhaust and handguards and rules the tight stuff. The 510 has a magic to it but realisticly don't think I will ride it much. I was thinking getting wheels for the 510 and have some fun on the street, If I did this I could have 3 sets of wheels for the 510/610, super moto/ds/and dirt. This would cover just about any type of riding with this setup and the honda. I think I may have answered my own question. Has anyone gotten wheels and what advice would you have?
 
I find the 510 OK in the S/T stuff but you really need to get yourself on a smaller bike to appreciate true S/T riding. I really hate putting my bike on a trailer to go riding. There's something about leaving from you house to go riding for the day that intrigues me.
Long story short a guy really needs a couple (or more) bikes. The 610 would be perfect for D/S rides. Fireroads, D/T open S/T etc. But you also have the ability to rip down a hwy all day if you want.:thumbsup:

The 510 will struggle if ridden on the hwy all day.

What year is your 610? Have you checked the Classifieds for rims?
