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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Synthetic E. Oil for X-lite

Thinners yes, viscosity improvers no. As a base, synthetic is opposite of mineral oil.(having a hard time keeping up on my phone *pants* lol)
 
I'm not devoted to one or the other. I'm just trying to understand the justification for using synthetic and ramifications of not doing so. I do like to debate/play devil's advocate to understand things better. Please don't take offense, I like to analyze.

No that's fine, knowledge is always good. I didn't mean to come off as crude. I had to rebuild my bottom end engine and have learned the hard way those parts don't come cheap! So best to take the safest, most preventive route as much as you can. Synthetic oil seems to be the best quality and change every handful of rides, depending on how hard you ride it...
