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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

had this happen twice yesterday when out on the singletrack.

1st gear, guessing somewhere between 5000-7000 rpm, going into a climb, steady throttle, and all of a sudden it just dies for a split second, enough for the rpm's to drop to 2500ish. almost crashed me both times.

Any ideas? this is the first issue I've had with this bike, and it is my nightmare. Carb issues i can at least wrap my head around and rebuild/clean. this EFI thing has me scared.
 
sorry to not reply to this.

58 trails miles saturday and this is getting worse.

miles/hours: unknown. I'd say 3500ish miles.
stock tank: yes
service filter/pump: no. pump was removed to repair a leaky o-ring on the tank awhile ago.
battery type: dunno, will follow up.

since it did it almost nonstop i figured out what causes it. when the bike gets weightless (off a jump, front end bouncing thru whoops etc) it seems the fuel is suspended towards the top of the tank for a split second and is not getting picked up. i suspect the sock came off of the fuel pump and isnt getting fuel at all times. will pull the pump this weekend and see what it looks like in there.

any other ideas?

sure isnt any fun when the thing dies and tries to throw you over the bars all damn day.

Did the bike have this problem before the fuel pump assembly was pulled out of the tank?
 
I'm drawing a blank here, if it is happening ONLY when the bike gets "weightless", then yeahm I would suspect the fuel pump assembly somehow.

Also, I am not familiar with the 2009 battery securement, make sure the connex are tight and the battery stays down in its setting.

yep, only when weightless. will check the battery compartment. there is nothing to really hold down the battery. previous owner had made a 1" thick pad to sit on top of the battery that squishes down when the seat is on.

is there supposed to be some hold down mechanism in there?

Others have used a hot screwdriver and burned 4 slots in the rear fender and used giant zip ties to hold it down.
 
pulled the pump last night. nothing out of sorts. ground wire was a tad loose. tightened up the clip. checked all wiring under the tank.. nothing odd. put it back together and couldnt make symptoms repeat in the yard.

riding sat, guess we'll see what happens.
