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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Morning All,

New here and I know these topics have come up many times before, so I apologize for redundancy of topics. Two “issues” currently driving me mad, #1 being the most problematic.

1.) Can almost NEVER find neutral on an idling, stationary, warm bike. Turn bike off and boom there it is, a simple half click up from 1st EVERY time.

2.) Bike off, in gear, cold, clutch lever pulled... won’t roll. Better when warm, but still difficult, doesn’t roll like neutral. (Sounds like maybe this is normal?)


Facts;

-2017 FE450
-VERY low miles/time; 300 miles/9hrs (2nd owner and recently purchased from very responsible original owner)
-Rekluse slave cylinder only (not clutch) OEM Magura slave failed early (as many do).
-Currently has MME levers, but does the same things (1&2) w/ OEM lever installed.
-Have bled clutch numerous times now. Clutch feel is great.
-Fresh oil.

Thank you!!

Tom
 
My 2018 did this until I replaced the slave cylinder with an adjustable rekluse. Now neutral is easy to find reliably. I bought it used with 80 hours and 1800 miles. When I removed the stock slave cylinder, the rubber diaphragm was badly degraded.
