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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Does any body make a wave style rear disc for the 250/300 that is not a floater?

dont you like the husky 2T rattle timbo?! google it im sure i saw one somewhere the other day. maybe ebay store of r&d husky or trooper lu in OZ. just make sure you're sitting down for when you see the price. ill stick to the rattler i think. not sure if the 4T discs would swap over or not(different hubs maybe on newer models, older 4T were the same). can you not use 'packers' or rubber washer type to stop the noise which i assume is your gripe, maybe the style too?
 
Based here in the UK http://www.racediscs.com/ I have used them many times all with good results
The Husky rear items are supplied with c/s bolts that do away with the built in rattle :naughty:
Just ordered a rear to fit on my spare wheel, the ones I fitted to my TM still looked new after 4 years of hard work
 
thats a pretty good deal. cost $100 for an aftermarket(average quality-not braking brand) disc here in OZ. nice work johnnyboy. will be buying from them when im due for front & rear discs which aint too far away. at least they should be decent quality not cheap crappy chinese steel! chalk up another one for CH :)
 
I can definately recommend racediscs, cheap and look great! Other brands costs almost double!

johnnyboy,
Did you turn your stock hubs down in a lathe?
Thanks for the brake pic :thumbsup:

The wheels/hubs are from a TE 511 that come stock with the polished hub. Husky is even nice enough to clear coat them so no chance of them festering !
 
Its not for me to defend the discs but I have had no such problems
In the past I among many others have entered a local enduro (slab common) that would eat both front and rear pads to the metal within 2 hours if it was wet due to the type of sand, shortly afterwards the chain would start skipping the rear sprocket due to all the teeth being worn away so conditions play a good part in wear and tear
As stated the ones on my TM were near perfect and I cannot recall ever changing the pads in over a year of use that due to being the UK every ride is knee deep in water :D
A sample of one of this years rides :lol:

Dang I was wondering if that could be done. There's a new lhrb from rekluse that only works with the 4 stroke brakes.
 
Well, I'm still waiting from mine to get here. I've never had anything come out of the UK take this long to get here. :banghead:
