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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2000 TC 610 EFM auto clutch

Hi. I am researching auto clutches at the moment and was wondering if there is any one out there who has sent their clutch to EFM for modification ? Specifically the TC 610 left kicker.
A auto clutch would help smooth out the power delivery and make the four speed box more versatile.

I had one made about 4 years ago for my 1986 510TE, having run auto Huskies for years and a modern 300 GasGas with a Rekluse clutch I thought it would be a good idea.
After much money being spent, about £600, I ran the 510 with the modified EFM clutch in a few Enduros here in the UK. To be honest I wasn't that impressed, nothing like as good as the Rekluse on my GasGas, felt very lumpy in the 510 so I suppose the 610 would be even worse. Went back to the normal clutch but felt disappointed that the EFM one didn't come up to expectations.
If you could persuade Rekluse to make one of their latest offerings to fit the 610 I could be tempted to have another go.
 
I would just get a 6 speed gear set off of ebay and switch it out, way more versatile. You will need the shift drum and shift forks as well. I did this to a friends TC 610 and it transformed the bike in to something great.
 
used EFM on my 125's and 310 great....no wear or binding ever. 610 is not a wicked motor so it will feel smooth. cannot compare an auto clutch in a 2 stroke to a 4 stroke
 
Although it was on 2 WR125's, a WR144 and a WR165, but not a 610, my experience was just the opposite. You can say only a tiddler and less torque, but the EFM performed flawlessly. On a small bore you need to use the clutch manually to keep the bike in the power. The EFM worked great, with total modulation and smooth engagement feel. Friends with KTM 150 and 200's with Rekluse always had modulation and engagement problems.
