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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st The obligatory video thread.

This video highlights my frustration riding at Burning Rock. They really could do a much better job of marking the trail heads and intersections.... That place has the potential to be incredible for dirt bikes. However, they (like most off road parks) are too in love with goon buggies (UTV's) and femur magnets (four wheelers) to really care about improving or expanding the bike only single track.

Here is a good example of ST looking but is a road ... Same area but I take a right after the foot bridge instead of going straight .. After the second larger creek crossing, I go left and that is a road with only the north end is being maintained much.

I've never believed riding a dirt bike over the earth ruins it ... Nothing scientific here but I see dozer work here all over the place, meaning the earth is scrapped flat or what ever ...much more that a bike\bikes could do to the same area and if left alone, the earth reclaims everything in short time usually...As shown here.
 
Short VID of me sitting at one of my favorite riding locations here when the mountain air was filled with the sound of 2t bikes ... It was my good friends from Balamban, including Alex "Macho Man', riding a loop from their place coming east to the middle of the island and then going back home... Too fing cool ....

To be fair, I know Go Pro cameras really flatten out a steep hill. I was just poking fun at the way he was trying to avoid the deep water and ended up getting all muddy anyway. I can hold my own with Johnny Walker though...it's one of my favorite adult beverages. :cheers:

well I was by myself, three miles outside the nearest town, on worn out road legal tyres, I use my bike to get to work every day so I wasn't going to risk going through the water, I had no idea how deep it was and I only rode off the road a few times so I'm not experienced at it
 
Runs good with no chamber after the mud hole! Looks like a fun group ride. Do you leap frog along? Noticed lots of folks waiting at trail turns, then you were doing the same.
 
it was running well - ive changed the cylinder head and increased compression - now it has a bit more poke - when I adjusted air screw richer it was pulling harder . Now I want to ride it again with richer jetting

yes - its what we call the corner man system ( DBW (dirt bike world) forum riders use it a lot )

1 Lead rider - (was Santa this time ) when the lead rider gets to a corner the guy behind him stops and waits and doesn't move until the last rider ( the sweep in a fluoro vest ) comes up

any more than 4 or 5 riders and you need this . We had 25 riders - and a sausage and beer at the end !
 
Its a good system as long as you all know how many are infront or in your group, forks in the track corners or up coming roads am always thankful for the dude waiting.
 
My Maiden voyage on a new to me '10 Husky CR 144. I'm coming off of an '07 TE 450 that was equipped with a Rekluse. The ground here is frozen (Kingston Ontario, canada) and got out juuust as the thaw was about to come out...got in and out in the nick of time. First impression....THIS is a completely different beast....The PERFECT Woods weapon. Things I may need to add...an easier clutch assembly to get one finger..small hands and a bit of reach right now.
