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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Installed my Motosportz disk guard (thanks Kelly) and also swapped out my 48-tooth rear sprocket for a 50-tooth. Two teeth made all the difference in the world. Bike rides perfect for me now, and it wheelies effortlessly. We won't talk about how the bike fell off the work stand while I was torquing the rear axle nut.:o Luckily no damage other than a very minor scrape on the left bark buster. The young man part of my brain grabbed ahold of it to slow the fall, but thankfully the old man part let go before I tweaked my back. The end result was a somewhat controlled fall onto the concrete garage floor.

Thankfully you didn't scratch the disk guard. That would've sucked big time.
 
Ok guys what am I missing I purchased one for motosportz. How do I mount this I regards to the brake carrier? Am I have a momentary lapse of reason? I haven't pulled rear wheel off yet, thx for the help

It simply replaces the wheel spacer on the rotor side and the mount snugs around the stock caliper carrier. A very well proven design we have been building for over 8 years now with zero issues. Tough and lightweight.
 
Take it easy popping out the old spacer, and I put a little grease on the lip of the spacer built into the guard when I reinstalled it. You don't want to bugger up the seal.
