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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Changing speedo for 17" wheels

I have a 2015 TE300 which I want to use as an enduro in the winter and supermoto in the summer. Got myself some 17" wheels now and re calibrated the speedo tonight so I thought I'd share how I did it.

I measured the front tyre circumference,1952mm, unclipped the headlight cowl, unplugged the only 3 wire block connector that has brown, black and red wires coming out of the speedo, the speedo loses its backlight at this point but it is still easy to read.

Then I held the bottom left and right buttons simultaneously for 3 to 5 seconds and the display started to flash. It would flash the word of what can be altered such as Clock, 24 hr, Tire etc.

If Tire isn't the first word to flash, just wait a few seconds and the next word will flash and so on. When Tire flashes, use the left or right buttons to increase or decrease the size as required n.b. make a note of previous setting, 2205mm, so you can revert back to the 21" wheel setting as required.

Once the size has been put in, let the dash scroll on its own through to the next word and it will eventually stop flashing and automatically save your setting. Then plug the block connector back together and the dash backlight starts working again.

Any questions, just ask!
