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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Technical riding/noise dilemma

Yes, that sounds correct. Too bad, I'd be more than happy to get a trail sticker to show my support. Im already doing that with 2 atv's, I actually registered them in WI. WI seems like an ATV can practically replace your car, even ride the pavement in small local areas.

Well maybe its time to start destroying my cat. I rode with a guy today that I normally ride single track with, on his property which has a small MX track and a single track. I preferred the MX track because I couldn't keep the bike running on the tight single line stuff. Its frustrating. The bike was in its sweet spot on the MX track though.
 
Check out Clark County and Black River Falls in WI. Both offer many miles of trail systems open to plated bikes.
 
Well I decided to go with the power up kit. I figured it would be easier to figure out how to quiet down that exhaust, then how to make it run better with the stock exhaust. So far so good. Its not "much faster" like many have suggested, but stronger in the lower and mid like I wanted. Theirs still that just-after-opening-the-throttle glitch, but once opened it seems to want to take off, w/o stalling unlike before. The sound does not seem to be much, if at all louder that the stock one. That is the stock one as of lately. I swear it was louder this year than last. It does sound and feel much different though. The sound is like more tin-ey. I will be measuring up the opening tomorrow to see if I can get a DB Dawg for it and I think that will just be about right.

Cant wait for the testing to continue.
 
Did any of you notice the smell of the bike change after the PU kit was installed? Cant figure out if its the exhaust or something sizzling?

Did you move the spark arrestor over to the new Arrow exhaust? And did you install the whole PU kit (O2 sensor delete)?

Somewhere way back I read that someone did install a DB Dawg in their Arrow '08 PU can and it did the job. But when I wrote to the company I got no response and I didn't pursue it. Working with them looks like the best bet at this point.

Yes and Yes. Ive measured and found the DB killer I need. I just havent ordered it yet. Rode today on all single track and the bike was near amazing. Stalling was nearly obsolete. :thumbsup:
