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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

X2 light on TE Husqvarnas

I'm interested in what people have done for the lower mounting on Trailtech X2 lights for late model TE's. I'm much better at copying than creating.

Thanks
 
I got out the hacksaw and cut some of the black fender support away.

IIRC, maybe an 1.5" or so.

Does not look too bad, but I'm not that picky.
 
- Remove the fender brace and use the plate with pins

- Screw the plate with pins to the top of the fender brace (makes the light a little high)

- Use the down pins and drill holes in the fender brace for them

I skipped the pins and the light is perfect.

It certainly works okay without the pins, but I found the light angle too low and too movable with bumps. The pins solve that.

It depends what you ride. For me riding at night in the desert and standing up was perfect. I never hit more than 50mph. In slow technical it was great too as you need a lot of light right in front of you. I also plugged it in directly to the battery so both lights can be on. However when I tun them both off the battery overcharge light comes on.
