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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TM racing 2014

I'd like to match one against my Husky 144. That would be interesting. Anyone know of a 144 TM in the USA? My son has a 2003 TM85 that outruns his KX85, but it can't run the same times in the woods. The older minis have a 125 size frame with smaller forks and swingarm. Strange to look at.
 
the new (ok 2013 TM85) is amazing , I have touchy feelyed it but did not see it run. its a piece of fine moto art. Pete has at least one 144 in house. call Pete at motoman in upland ca.
 
Only TM I have ever ridden other than an older 300 which i did not like the motor (think there was something wrong with the powervalve on that one) was a 07 TM MX530F with ohlins and steel frame and it was freaking awesome. Still dream about that monster.

Awesome machines.
I have an alloy frame EN300 and although it isn't as easy to work on as a 2t Husky it's certainly doable.
A husky is just soooooooooo easy to work on, all should be like that.
