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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Was watching Dakar and what did I see... really?

awesome and yes most of us are obsessed and rightly so...
i honestly dont know what i would do with all the spare time if i gave up with my bikes.?
 
I'm actually surprised that Kelly spotted that... Hahaha


what are you saying I have deleted this horror from my mind. :D I like KTMs just fine just sad to see the italian / german bikes go so abruptly thats all. Just less choices and nothing handles like a 08 and up husky plus we lost the best small motor on the planet.
 
Oh I wouldn't count your chickens before they've hatched. We were going no where with BMW. Besides, think of the poor KTM people, we have smashed into their industry and we still ride the superior bike! And there's absolutely nothing they can do about it.
 
I'm guessing there are some very unhappy berg lovers out there. Which is funny because they actually kept their bike, it got new stickers too.
 
Marketing marketing and marketing and of course a decent product

If you see what the KTM duke 200 here in Cambodia does its pretty impressive.

the bike is transformed to a status symbol and a desirable must have object.
you see packs riding through town as a club type of thing.

personal I do not like the looks and the sound of that bike but within a 8 months of the introduction the street are swamped with this bike
on top of that this is the most expensive bike of this specific segment.

the Indian made Yamaha is hunderds of dollars cheaper as is the Baja

Its here also ... I have a friend who has a new 200 now. Word is the 390 or whatever the next size up is what they are wanting .. 200cc may not quite cut it ...

SP is playing in the high-end market across the board it seems. Japanese only hold on bike count here is the lower end stuff... After SP has the sales number count he wants in the upper side, he's gonna dive-bommb that low side. SP is a juggernaut ...
