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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

13 te511 clutch switch questions?

Husqvarna
AA Class
My bike is 3 days old, today was the second time I ride it. I replaced my silencer for an FMF and have it on MAP II. After taking it for a 20 minute ride I turned the bike off to make a phone call, and when I finished the bike would not start at all. Nothing from the start button. I had to walk the bike home, luckily I wasn't too far. To make a long story short I did quite a bit of research and decided to jump my clutch switch and it works. My question is.. How could it go bad so soon? Could it be something else causing the issue? Switch isn't torn, or damaged in any visible way. I bought my bike out of town so I am kind of on my own as far as taking it for warranty. Thanks for the help!
 
The wires as they enter the switch itself are fragile.
A tie down may have stressed the wire by chance. (don't ask me how I know this)
Sicass sells a little eliminator for something like $5, or tape your jumper in and you are all set :)
I hope this helps,
Rich

I just order that eliminator from Sicass, along with some other stuff. Also ordered switch from dealer just in case, I don't feel too safe with it off. Friends tend to jump on bikes not knowing WTH they are doing... Thanks!
