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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

lazy foot?

This happened on the 510 occasionally, the TXC too...but today happened more than usual and bit me in the a$$ twice at very inopportune moments.

Shifting up or down between first or second it will instead choose neutral. When I want neutral, it usually takes a couple of tries. Yet when at race pace and I needed to hammer down a gear to loft the front over a nice quality log, and instead got a high rev and almost thrown over the bars when I ran smack into the thing...:censored:....probably pretty darn funny to see, but wrecks a guy's mojo like pronto.


I could see if it's only up or only down maybe a shift lever positioning change would be in order. The rest of the gears shift fine up and down. Of course I realize they don't have neutrals between each of them either....


Any ideas?
 
Whenever I get funky shifting, it's an indicator for an oil change. New oil & I get smooth precise shifts again.

Yours might be that simple, hope so :thumbsup:
 
nothing to do with oil... i done 2 changes in 4 rides(cleaned out strainers etc).. and last ride i was going a bit quicker than usual and got a few false neutrals and sticky changes WHEN I WANTED THEM LEAST ! .. odd really but defo not oil related..
