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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TXC450 Helmet Cam Vids (finally)

Thanks for the post. Watching them makes me wanna ride right now.

What brand of helmet cam is it?
 
you guys know what i like about the h-cam.....its a self improvement school,,,,,,after watching/listening I will think more about gear up and smoothing out the throttle hand,,,a little too much 2 stroke blipping even after all these 4 stroke years.
Also that day was the ride test of the bridgestone 403 404 combo,,which I never felt comfortable with in the sandy loose stuff on the TXC ( I liked them on my 06TE450),,,I was very unsettled on that day.
Its so so hard to try and carve when the whole trail is dust obscured cloud.
PS the guy leading is 61 years old....he is our mentor!!! (we give him the no dust respect)R
 
made me want to go out & ride right now too! I know what you mean about the dust. It's hard to do your coolest riding when you're riding & eating a thick cloud of dust. Still a cool video, but an air filter's worst nightmare!!!
 
we had our local pro (now SEN EX) lead a trail breaking ride to create that one last JAN. Its well burned in now,,just gotta keep all the crew diciplined to stay on the groove to keep it single track.
There is alot more to it but all that editing to fit into you tube is such a time consuming pain.
 
Dude, that is so trails tire land, seriously. It would rule there. Works great in silt and rocks.
 
I rode with Robert at McCain Valley when I was arguably still a total rookie. I've got a couple more years, and several hundred hours under my belt and have adjusted and suspended my 450 to fit me and my style.

Here's several of my helmet cams videos, most recent at the top. I definitely learn by watching my rides and 'seeing'/learning from my mistakes. I also learn my local trails, ruts and rocks...knowing what's coming is an invaluable confidence and skill builder. For this alone the trouble and expense has been worth it to me, not to mention the fun in sharing with riders and non-riders alike.

Check 'em out, you'll want to ride!

I've been using them off and on (many IRC tubeless, tube-type and one Dunlop) for 3 years, they do work very well, but knobs are fun too!
