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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

From xfool on TT...
1- With ignition off, hold down the MODE button.
2- Turn the ignition on and continue to hold the MODE button down until WS appears in the lower right hand corner of the display. If you release the MODE button at this point you will jump to step 8.
3- Continue to hold the MODE button and flash the passing light 5 times. Hitting the high beams 5 times also works but the passing light button is easier.
4- Release the MODE button, "0001" appears. This is the setup for a SM with 18" wheels
5- Hit the MODE button and "0002" appears. This is the setup for a TE with a 21" wheel.
6- Select 0001 or 0002 then hold down the MODE button until WS appears in the lower right of the display. Release the MODE button.
7- Press the MODE button to scroll through the settings for wheel size, tach pulses/engine rev, etc. If you hold the MODE button down the value entered for each setting will show up, but as far as I can tell there is no way to change them. Scroll through the settings. The last one is "max" and the next push of the MODE button will bump you out of the TE or SM mode selection part of the setup and put you at step 8.

Thanks for the tips,![]()

I'm back; it's not working on the 630. The only thing I am able to do is switch the display between km/h and mph.
Are you positive? The gauge I got as a replacement is the same part number as the original.You cant switch it back and forth on the 630s.
I tried that, doesn't work. I can sure try again, though.Did you start the bike?
On the 610 it's this procedure:
0: place transmission in neutral.
1: zip-tie the clutch lever down, or grow a third arm
2: depress mode button, keep it depressed.
3: turn on the ignition
4: Start the engine
5: WS will appear at some point, it's probably already there by the time you've got the engine running.
6: press the "flash to pass" button 5 times
7: now you can release the mode button.. if you released it any time between steps 2 and 6 try again from the top.
