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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My WB165 impresses me every ride. It is my gnar bike as in the best bike to be on when things get ugly. I have relentlessly thrashed this bike though endless mud and snow and it keeps asking for me. there is a really big snotty snow covered climb to get here. My KTM 250 riding buddy needed several tries at several sections to get here when my little bike that could just chugged up them like "what?" Love it.

BTW KTM buddy tells me his temp guage for his bike would not get above 83 degrees unless he pinned it for a while and then would get to 100. It was 21 degrees out. A thermostat would be recommended for these rides.
 
That hill your talking about is my favorite hill climb in HR to date... It is gnarly when dry in a couple of spots... I would of love to hit it with you yesterday!!

Give Rollie some credit. He only has one functional Eye!!!
 
I hate you :lol:

Stop posting pics of riding spots one could only dream of :notworthy:

If there was anything remotely like the region you ride near me, I would be out there far more often then what I am lol
 
I love the fact that you are not using any sort of studds,you guys out that way are tuff cookies.Great photos.


I wish I had had some on a short road section we were on. Lost the front end and went down kinda hard on frozen ice covered pavement. Rang my bell a little. Sucked.

That's the one thing I don't like about riding in below freezing conditions, the ground is rock hard and at times you can go down so quick and so hard you really don't have any time to do anything about it until you are on the ground feeling groggy, sore, and wondering what the hell just happened.

These last couple of days of below freezing weather out here have reminded me that I don't really like riding on frozen ground. Might have to update my posts on that "Who likes to ride in the nasty winter weather?" thread, LOL.
 
I used to commute on my WR250X. When it was full blown snowing I'd take my wife's car to work (I got caught plenty of times riding home from work lol). My street wasn't plowed yet so normally I'd ride on the sidewalks. Well I stayed on the road and went down so fast I didn't know what happened. the bike dragged me down the hill while I was counting driveways lol

Seriously I love riding in crap weather. Even when I had sportbikes I rode all year. I just can't even think of putting a bike away for the winter.
