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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My first guess would be the coil. It could just be the wire or cap, but more likely the coil. I'd remove these items and inspact them for any signs of cracks, or even a very nasty ground connection to the frame.

One sure way to track it down is to remove the tank, plug the fuel line and wet the bike down in the coil area. Then, in a dark place kick it over and look for blue tracers shooting around the elcetrical system.

It never hurts to pulling the stator cover off and cleaning things out real well with contact cleaner, then coat with something like WD40, every now and then.

And using dielectric grease on all your connectors, as well as grounding points is also a good idea.
