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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2010 250 txc starter issue solved

If anyone is having a starter issue with their 2010 te or txc 250 please check out the my last post on 250te starter problems. Have had no problems with starter since i have cleaned armiture and gears up. Husky needs to take a look at the coatings that they put on there armitures to make sure it adheres properly is my guess.
 
They probably do not make their starters since they look like the ones on other manufactures bikes as well.
 
I have been having alot of brittle black plastic in my oil change. Was your stuff brittle and black and can you tell me again what you removed to find the source of this stuff? Did you remove the starter and disassemble it?

I removed the complete starter from the bike, so i could check the clearance in the gears between the end of the armiture and the end of the worm gear. But if i would do it again, you can take the 2 bolts out of the end of the starter that you have marked "2". Pull out the amiture and the magnet and clean all the plastic debris out. You say you have black plastic in your oil, there is no way it could work itself though the seal. The way to check that is if there was plastic in the gears where the end of the armiture gear and worm gear meet. Where those two gears meet oil from the engine should lubricate them, if not check on the gasket where the worm gear goes into the case to make sure it not plugged or misaligned. If you take the exhaust off it takes about an hour time to do the complete job. My dealer wanted to give me to much of an estimate to try to figure it out. It was just some common since and listening where it was binding. Good luck to all that have the same issue.
