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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Nice grip covers! When you aren't using them to ride you can hook them up to a biohazard hot box to test samlpes of Ebola. :lol:
 
Me likes me digits to funckion :) I get a lot of crap about those but on this 29 degree day my hands were not frozen. Gloves, grips and levers stay dry and mud free.
 
Almost everyone over here use that type of covers all winter.
You can use thin gloves and don't need grip heaters.

I love winter riding. Unfortunately, I had to sell my Husky this year.

If anyone is interested, I got a set of carbide studded tires for sale. I used them on my CR165. They are 21" front and 19" rear. They are both in good condition. Send me a PM if you are interested.
 
Being in fl, our riding areas are generally pure flat swampy garbage.

But there are a few upsides, this pic was taken last january, and its lookin like i might go out on the boat next weekend.
 
I installed the hardened ice screws and would go out in snow and ice storms. I had many Harley guys in my old neighborhood. They had Harley stickers in the rear Windows on there 4x4 trucks they would shake there heads when I passed them. I had a '77 250cr husqvarna studded. It's impossible to fall on the street with ice screws. My weight could be a factor I never fell.

I purchased ice screws for my son and his girl friend and we were the only ones riding off road in the snow and ice. I'll never forget those days.

We rode in mass a few times on the pipeline with the snowmobiles. They thought we were crazy riding with them.
 
Riding is only seasonal if you let it be seasonal. Breakout those thinsulated clothes, pants, boots and gloves and let her rip.

I was installing as many ice screws as I could in each knobbie but next time it's bolts with the liner and the no flat.

Ever notice how your so warm when we ride in the frigid weather? Our heart runs like a furnace. When I go in from a street ride in the ice and snow I'm toasty warm.

Do you think our bodies change through the many years of the simple life with no outside activity in the wintertime, did humans get soft.
