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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2008 TE510 Electronic problem

Hello everybody,
Im new to this forum and english is not my first language so please excuse me for any miss spels :)

So, I recently purchased an used TE510 and I absolutely love it! But few days ago I was riding normally when all of a suden the bike started to die, first just some minors booo (like it was loosing contact) and then absolutely stoped... Now the speedo shows that, filmed below:

The battery is 12.7V, manual says its 100%, but still, could be the battery?

The reason I cant check that right away is that after a day or two everything started to work just fine and later went back to mallfunctioning....

PS: Anyone knows some good european webshop for parts for this bike? exhausts?

Greetings!
 
There are many things it could be. A most common cause of electrical problems on these big race thumpers is vibrations that rub wires bare and they short out when they are not supposed to. Mostly located under the tank. If you are going to work on this bike, you should learn to take the tank off without spilling alot of gas, and without breaking the red plastic elbow. I've had to take my tank off maybe 50-60 times in 3 years.
 
Not spilling part is a little bit tricky but I'm managing so far.

One other thing was happening before that speedo thing, cooling fan is reconected on the switch only (work of previus owner) and when I turned it on it started to turn very slowly some times not even that, but when it started spinning it was fine... When I connected the fan to another battery I have laying around it worked fine, also I changed that from the bike with this one and now seems to work just fine... But could really a battery be cousing all this? Even tho it shows 12.7V?

Another thing, I want to connect the fan back to the thermo switch but also have the manual switch, would this diagram be OK?

The thing that bothers me is that when only the manual switch would be ON that this wouldn't couse some sort of short out? Should I put a diode between?

Yes, I had a battery that's shows 12.7v on the bench, but when I put it on the bike, and any load is put on the battery, the voltage drops so low as to be useless. I recycled my battery.

You need to get both your batteries "load tested", maybe at an auto parts store, they might have a load tester for batteries.
 
Actually, when I get my HDB Setup, I also bought 2 ON/OFF switches, one for the MAP selector, and the other one to run my radiator fan when I want too, just like the wiring diagram you posted above or perhaps install a relay setup for the manual fan switch (maybe its overkill...???)...but call it, piece of mind knowing my bike is being cooled off when I want it too.
