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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

ended with a 3rd for the day...not a bad debut on going back to my true first love....the Husky 125
 
was great but about 3/4 into the 90 ground miles....bike would stop and die on steep long down hills. Me thinks pluggged vent hose(s) on carb? Would be tough to restrt on even level ground. only on steep long down hills...even with throttle way on too. Got to check it out but anyone ever have this happen? Bueler? anyone?
Otherwise.....might be selling a TE 310 soon....the thing rocks!
 
Carb float height might be too low and causing fuel starvation if at that angle too long.

Congrats with placing 3rd with a new bike :thumbsup:
 
Joe,

It was good to meet you after the enduro. Looking forward to seeing you again at the Gathering.

Where did you get the pics? Any pics of a home-built Kawasaki on row 49?

144's lookin' good!
 
Looking good Joe....:thumbsup:

hmm....about the stalling...are your vent hoses still down low by the shock..?? might want to stick em high and put them in a pill bottle in the air box...I did that and have no issues anymore

might want to take your igniton cover off and see how much water you took on...I had to plug the weep hole in the bottom with RTV

almost sounds like fuel level to high...and flooding...the fuel has nowhere to go but inside the intake on a steep downhill....I'm guessing

yes its a wonderful bike...it has an awesome feel :)

Camera operator here - Sorry, didn't get any pics of you this time, but if you find Joe or me before a race (I can usually be identified by Husky shirt and giant camera bag), just let me know what row you're on, and what you're riding, and I'll get some next time :thumbsup:
 
Damn...good eye Ben!

Also, I love the pics Joe...you look so...uh...overdressed/overprotected...lol...just kidding! Good to see you with some "I" protection.

It looks like your helmet wasn't strapped across your throat. But, you may have a super strap.
