• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 see the manual calls for BR7ES vs. the industry standard BR8EG. I have a bunch of BR8EG's from other bikes, any reason I can't use it?
 
no its not going to make a huge difference...... but why goof off from the OEM spec heat range????? BR7ES came on the bike BR7EIX is what is now on the bike (Iridium BR7 plug)
 
I run the cheap 2 dollar regular br8eg in my 2016 TE 300 now for almost 2 years never a problem also use 110 leaded race gas mixed 50 to 1 with lugas oil
 
Ajax, You should try the EIX. You can actually tell the difference in how much better the bike runs. Its surprising. Heck I put one in my lawnmower because of that. Cam.
 
I don't know if it matters but what premix ratio do you guys running Iridium plug use? I've been running 60:1 per the manual for at least 30 of the 49.7 hours on the bike. Seems goot at that ratio.

Plus, the '17s switched from a BR8 that the '16s and earlier bikes had, to BR7. There must have been a reason for it?? It is a new motor after all.
 
BR7EIX is in my 2017 TX300----use the OEM engineered heat range for your model, with the OEM recommended mixture ratio with the OEM or exceeding fuel requirement. they didnt just decide on whim what to use they spent doses of hours in r&d instrumentation and testing getting the most data to come up with the best engineering solution to put the bikes to market. my 2 cents. that's worth way more.
