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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

'08 TE510 ,bouncing idle

I recently picked up an '08 510 and since Husky's are rare around me so I've never heard exactly what is normal . Mine starts fine , idles ,but will bounce up/down , similar to a big block V8 with a big cam and how they "lope" . It doesn't sound like a miss , remains the same whether motor is cold or hot ,but maybe does do a bit more pronounced when hot. It has shut down a few times when pulling in the clutch as I'm slowing for a stop sign or turn , starts right up hitting the starter .

It does have a nasty hesitation when going from no throttle to giving it some , then takes off with authority . Going steady down the road at roughly 1/4 throttle it does that up/down surging . Did a couple throttle chops , new plugs each time each rpm plug looked perfect.

My guess is TPS needs reset/adj. , fuel pump sounds good ,both cold and hot , but I can't say if it pulses pressure , which could be the idle issue or stalling when rpms drop . I do need to check/replace both filter and might simply get new upgraded nozzle .

Anyone have an iBeat for sale ?

Which efi controller works best ? Dynojet , JD , or other ? Does iBeat do the same tuning ability as the controllers or is it mostly just for codes and the adding/subtracting CO , but no timing options ?

I am familiar with some limited efi tuning , I have a LTR450 and Yoshimira PIM and it's interface FIMAK map adjuster plus some piggybacks on other quads . currently installing a Microsquirt system on an older bike.
