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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Clutch Question

I did my first "hard core rock ride" on the 08 TE 250 today. I have the uprate kit but I was running the O2 sensor. I have 1 tooth larger on the front sprocket.

Riding it like a tractor around 3000-3500 RPM in 3rd gear worked great. Very little wheel spin with my pirelli trials tires, they performed flawlessly on the wet slimy rocks and roots

. Come to an open section, run up the RPM and it takes off with more then enough power for what I am doing. It dragged my 240 lbs around the woods with no problems.

Before we left The guys I was riding with looked at my tires and had that look "it going to be a long day waiting for this guy" but once they saw how well they worked they are thinking about trying them.

Anyway, once I had been riding an hour or so it became very hard to find Neutral. It felt like the Clutch was not disengaging all the way. Plus when you were in Neutral, pulled in the clutch and kicked it in gear it would grind just a little. It only does it Hot. Anybody got a quick "how to" on any internal adjustments to the clutch system?

I plan on picking up some mineral oil to flush out the system.

On a site note, I do wish the bike was a little quieter though. If I was running higher RPM I would want to wear ear protection with this one. The Arrow seems just as loud as the stock pipe so I run the Arrow for the weight loss.
