• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 friend Bogi (Leyte) said he thinks this bike is an early 70s model ... Pretty unique in a few ways for its day - Shaft drive, single rear shock, oil pump, auto-clutch, no transmission, single-sided swing arm ..

Pretty sure it's the PW50 engine as it looks exactly the same as my 5 year old grandsons. Left hand kick starter, shaft drive, and all. The 80 is right hand kick and chain drive.

I knew it was one of those just did not care enough to check into it :D
 
HA I only had to step into the garage :D. He scares the crap out of me on that thing. It flies with his light little butt on it and that with it governed down :eek:!
 
I think its a qt 50. The pw guys like the trannys from those because they are geared lower.
