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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

'12 TXC 310 Oil Change

Scraper, aye? You're talking my language. Haven't seen a twin in years. Still had to have a push Cat though. At both the cut and the fill. Did you check that link?

I guess two two wheel drive is not as good as two engings. Two engines would be like steering a scraper in the wet, power through the turn, yep yah! Get r done!

A friend of mine had a Rokon once. They are basically the same concept. They are fun until you try to turn under throttle and the front end goes shooting out from underneath you.

There was a shop bike ('13TXC310) sitting there with a stuck motor, so they swiped the drain plug off of it. Good as new.

Wait a minute----I thought that the '13 TXC 310 had a bottom mounted drain plug with no hose as opposed to the rear mounted '11-'12 TE and '12 TXC????

The drain plug on my '11 TE was super tight when it came back from the shop post-melt-down. I now ignore the manuals suggestion of "do not remove the hose"---I just loosen the hose, slide it off, and get the box end on the drain plug. I've done this ever since the first oil change where I left the hose on the drain plug the whole time and the plug staring to cross-thread during installation due to the sideways tension caused by the hose. The same day I ordered a spare drain plug.

The 2013s have the same Hose / Fitting arrangment AND a Magnetic Sump Plug .
 
Hah! They have them for motorcycles, chain saws, assorted gas fueled hand held power tools, weed eaters, rototillers and the Toyota Prius and Russian Skoda.
 
Yeah i heard about those Toyota Prius electrifying power band. But my husqvarna runs on a gas power band so buying one should be easy through that site.
