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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I keep thinking this would be a fun little bike to have. My days of riding fast on the road are over and I just want a little bike to go for ice cream with the wife. Too bad the Euro version looks way cooler....

A good bike but a little too pricey here in France ( € 6,000 ) . They will stop selling them after they sell the few bikes left ( e4 pollution regulation, overpriced...). Oh, and it is also the end of the xjr 1300 here.

About the equivalent of Euro 5400 here in US. I've had Triumph Speed Triple, Kawi ZRX1100 and other big bikes... no need for tarmac speed anymore and don't want a Harley.
 
If I were you I'd keep my eye out for a Yamaha SRX 600, only imported one year ('86) in the states so can be tough to come by but they are around. A very clean one will be less than a new SR400 by a decent chunk and more fun at legal speeds by a decent chunk.
