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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Finally updated my Smugmug account so I can download pics here and thought I'd share some of the one and only Husky 511 Mountian Horse built so far. It was my demo bike early this season but worked so good it sold right away. Since then it's helped sell 9 more TXC's to be used next season for Mountain Horse kits.

I've done a fair amount of snowmachining in my time, and all the sleds I have ever owned had centrifugal drive and driven clutches connected with a v-belt that kept the engine in the sweet spot regardless of terrain. How hard is power management on the Mountain Horse with a manual transmission?

It's not hard at all. You run in 2nd and 3rd almost the entire time. 4th when the snow is more setup. The Husky works exceptionally well with the close ratios 1st through 3rd and doesn't drop "off the pipe" as much as the wide ratio bikes do.
