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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TNMX Round #6, Changes and Glitches...

Another fun night at TNMX round 6... There were some changes to the track that took me a bit to adapt too, I hated the track in practice... One section I didn't ever attempt the first part of, maybe next week. Three Huskies again this week, Montgob1 took 2nd in the 30+ beginner on his CR125.

A kid on his dads friends TE450 was jumping all the big stuff. He seemed to like the bike and was also riding a Yamaha in another class.

I have been having an issue with the TC stalling every once in a while when I land or catch a braking bump wrong. It is like the auto decompression mechanism is engaging. When it happens the engine will not re-fire until I pull the clutch in and let the engine completely die, then I can pop the clutch and it will fire. It is usually in the faster sections so I have been able to get it going again without losing much time. The section I was having trouble with last night had me slamming the face of a step up with no momentum to get the engine to fire quickly. It happened once in each moto, it was bad enough that it frustrated me and cost time.

I put a call in to Bills to inquire about the issue and he is going to check into it for me.

It has happened to me on my TXC and on Kelly's 06 TC250 the first time I rode it. Hitting stutter bumps going in to corners seems to make it happen on the red top 250's.

My starts were spectacular as usual, I rode 5 motos the weekend before on a dirt start. I managed to forget the technique for concrete starts and went for the NHRA burnout method... it didn't help my starts but makes for good video.


2:40 in is where it stalls here, I also opened my mouth at the wrong time and had a dirt clod go right down the hatch. Spent most of the moto spitting...


4:10 here same spot, Maybe I should just jump the thing...
