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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Full Electrical Failure: Runs but no lights or guages!

I have a brand new (700 miles) 2011 te 630. When riding home tonight (after dark) first the low beam went out then the highbeam, then about 10 minutes later the headlight flashed real bright and every thing went dark. The bike runs fine but no lights or guages! Any ideas?
 
Plan on taking it in first thing in the morning. Bought it used yesterday from BMP (Bills Motorcycle Plus) in Salem with about 600 miles. I'm sure he will take care of it for me. I was just checking to see if anyone else out there has had this problem before?
 
I had a problem with my meter not working one time, but it happened during the day. When I investigated, I found that my low beam and tailight was out too. Strangely, the high beam was still working. So, I replaced the headlight bulb and then everything worked again. Strange wiring.....:excuseme:

I bought my '03 TE610e used with under 2k miles on it. The original petcock had been replaced by a non-OEM model, so it didn't have the low fuel indicator line. Without that plugged in, the low fuel light is off all the time, except when you put it in neutral.

Having never had the bike with the stock petcock, I don't know if that's how it behaves with low fuel in stock form, but it makes sense that the low fuel light should be on ALL the time, not just when in neutral.

Bill got it fixed! Looks like the headlight bulb came loose and shorted out the fuse. They put several fuses in but they just kept popping, thats when they discovered the loose bulb!

Great excuse for me to have him put in one of those new HID headlight kits! Cant wait to see the light!
