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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

warp 9 wheels any good ?

looking at a set of warp 9's on ebay the price is right are they any good or should i just save my money and get excel's. converting 09 te 610 to sm
 
Good not great. You get what you pay for in wheels. For SM work they should be just fine. If you were doing 60+ foot jumps i might try to steer you away.
 
thank you for the reply. any of the vendors /sponsers out there know a good place to pick up a sm conversion kit with excel rims talon hubs tires rotors relocation bracket spacers and sprocket for a good price
 
I put a set on my son's WR250 and he's beat the hell out of them pretty good and they've held up great.
I doubt they are as strong as an Excel wheel in a collision, or for jumping as mentioned. Keep the spokes tight and air in the tires. ;)

Don't let me turn you off, I'm sure they are fine just not top of the line.

They're half the cost. :thumbsup:
If I was doing a sumo conversion on my own bike I might be tempted to use them.
I have heard of cheaper rims splitting along the shoulder of the bead flange. That would be a drag if you were a long way from home huh?

The anodizing isn't as nice as excels either. I have black excels on my KTM. Wish the husky had them. :cry:

I was getting some anodizing done, so I decided to send my 610 rims in and had my hubs coated at the same time.
