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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125-200cc WR125 Skid plate

I was riding with some friends recently on my '09 WR125. I have always had the stock plastic skid plate and after drilling a drain hole for the gearbox in it, have been satisfied that it was good enough. However, this time I came up on a hole in the ground with a stump protruding on the other side. I managed to get my front wheel over but when my rear wheel went in the hole it stopped me short. Stuffed my sack in the tank so hard that I had to step off and recover. The bike just stayed there without being held up it was so stuck. When cleaning the bike later, I discovered the damage. Now, I'm shopping for a better skid plate. Wondering how I would like the Uptite version with the swiss cheese look. Seems like stuff would wash out easier. Any comments?
