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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

txc 250 will it work..

Whew, my smart ass comment would be you are not Meo or Jason Thomas now are you....Just Kidding. I agree with what Carl has said on here but for the A rider switching from a YZ 250 (or any 250 two stroke), I think there is going to be a shock at first of the instant "quick jerk pull" from the YZ to the Husky TXC 250. It is up to the rider to adapt to the different character of power. It should be fine if you give the bike the time to see your results. The Husky 250 likes to be revved and if you watch any Meo Video in a Special test he is never less than half throttle. All 250F's are really this way but some make more power down low than the Husky. The Husky TXC 250 handles better than any other bike I have ridden as it does everything good. I still recommend taking a spin on one as the difference between the two bikes is a lot in the motor department. Personally I am not a fan of the handling of the YZ dropping it into tight turns, I do like the stability of the bike and that it does not put you on your head and goes well around sweepers.

By the way from what I have seen of Juha's riding style he is not like revved to the moon type of rider. He is supposed to be riding the Husky 250F next year so I am anxious to see him ride this bike. He reminds me of a Stefan Everts type rider, just smooth and in control. He rode a KTM 250F in E1 before and did well I am sure he will adapt to this bike too. Going to be a good Husky year in EWC for sure.
 
These are 2 fellows that have ridden these under powered, heavy, tall, slow top geared bikes to world champions and above the crowd ... True talent on display ... we all don't have that talent so we look for other ways to get the job accomplished ...

I have said numerous times to stay with the 2T ... but saying these 250 4t Huskies can't win is just not correct ... there are world champions who park their tails on them ... But if you have never rode a 250 4T, don't expect it to be a 250 2T ... a 250 4t is a gloried 125 2T ... all of them ...
 
Not all 250fs produce power in the same way. as far as winning, well even the BMW got some wins so i guess any bike can do it
