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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

12T CS Sprocket

I know there are a few different approaches for improving 1st and 2nd gear on the 2010 TE250s (gearing too tall) but I wanted to share my first impressions after installing a 12T cs sprocket from the 13T stock (I left the rear stock sprocket as is). I have only put one ride since the change but overall I think the change has been positive. I ride mostly st with a lot of rocks here in the NE where you're naturally stucked in the lower gears. Before the change I had to use plenty of clutch to get the bike up to its 'happy' zone. With the 12T I've been able to ride in 2nd comfortably in the happy zone and even 3rd gear.

This bike handles tons better in mid-high rpm zone and I feel the 12T cs sprocket has allowed me to ride in that zone whereas before I had to get there at the expense of the clutch.

If you're thinking of making this change keep in mind that the new xlite motors use a different cs sprocket than previous husky models.
 
yep 12 on the front is the go lots of guys on hear are running the 12/50 combo and it works great

i have gone to a 12/51 its perfect for the riding i do
 
Isn't the stock rear sprocket on a 2010 te250... maybe 42 teeth? It was really small when I saw them in July 2009... maybe they were changed?
