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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
I just went through swapping my 4 port for the Kawi injector. I think I got more of a boost than what I would expect upgrading to a 300 cc kit if it were made. The mid and top end was crazy. Flawless mixing. I could easily wheelie up hills where I never could have before. Flat amazing. What wasn't so amazing is the bottom end just off idle. I gained a huge hesitation. A completely unacceptable huge hesitation. I spent 12 hours with ibeat changing TPS and the CO numbers to try and work this out. Change after change after change. The kawi injector enriched up everything. My exhaust was sputtering some black out of the tip even. I kept leaning it out to the point of gaining popping on de-accel but the hesitation still remained. Im completely disappointed that I couldn't get this worked out, the mid and up was soooo amazing. I ended up re-installing the 4 port, resetting my TPS and CO to previous and my bottom end is back to fine. Its killing me knowing this engine has HUGE potential, like MX hitting power potential that I cant have. Its seriously unbelievable, once it gets past the bad area the bike lurches forward with the slightest throttle twists. Anyway after going back to the 4 port later I went riding ST that had big switchback hills both ways and had problems finding the power even in first with the 12/50 gearing to climb them from almost a dead stop.rivers here.
Any ideas?? The Kawi injector is about to go in the classifieds but it feels murderous to do so with that power gain. I tried so many different small and large changes with TPS, CO and even went back to goofing with FB. It definitely made everything rich. I definitely leaned everything out, I mean all the way to the 70's with CO1 and in very small increments to no avail. To be more detailed, when going slow in 2nd, suddenly hammering the throttle it just stutters for a while... then CRAZY power comes on. I keep thinking maybe a JD tuner with this would help but I really dont want to spend the money just for trial and error. It gets expensive.
I wonder if the JD programmer would do the trick? I didn't want to change the ecu cause it seems so many are having trouble with it and not using it.
Sorry I dont agree ! I have the injector / ecu / leo race pipe on a TE310 and it is GREAT !
Heaps more power across the range, no flat spots, runs 100% .
I would recomend to anyone !
I've got a 2011 with the JD, I'm thinking of trying out the 12 port. I've got the same low-end issues like stalling at low speed. The JD made a lot of difference, in fact we tested two 2011's side-by-side with and without the JD and a stock 2012. The test was to slow to near stall speed in 2nd gear and then full throttle. The 2011 with JD was most responsive and was better than 2012 stock.I wonder if the JD programmer would do the trick?

??????????? Husky 12 point ECU Works great with Leo Pipe !

i just put the kawasaki injecter in. The injecter i got was a 49033-0010 and it is just a 10 hole injector. What is the part number you came up with for the 12 hole. I am still waiting for my power commander to get here but i had my dealer tune it and it doew rev a lot quicker with no dead spots. I hope with the power commander i can fine tune it better.
the injector is kawi pn 49033-0010. the shop where I work has it for $70. http://www.cycledesignonline.com/default.asp
Thats not the right part number... should be -0011.
