• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Model Information Preview

Husky Sports and Blip Blip thanks for the pictures. If you ever get to Georgia USA you got a place to stay, and ride.

2009 TE310 2009 WR125
 
So is that why P3 is building a larger tank for the WR125 / TC250, because Husky is going to use it for a pattern for their new optional tank ?
 
New optional high capacity fuel tank for WR125 & TE250
funny it just says bigger than 7.5 liters (1.9 gal).....that helps
 
I noticed the hard plastic skid plate on the '10 CR 125 is gone. I kinda like that on our '09.

Wonder if they have all the TC 250 bugs sorted out? If so, that'll be my next purchase.
 
I was told by a factory rep that there is no new development happening on the WR250/300. Dont be surprised if you see a 6 speed back in the WR soon, but thats it.

Crap, I keep hoping for a new motor and changes like on the 09 125.
 
So the 'all new model' TE 250 is based on the new TC250?
And it comes with a larger optional tank.

And Husky awards Ajaxauto with a larger tank option? :thumbsup:

Or am i not reading this stuff correctly?
 
In answer to the above questions:

2010 310 is based on existing bike, not the new 250 engine. Not actually sure how big a capacity the new 250 engine can go out to, it was designed specifically as a 250 so maybe it won't get any bigger.

2010 TE250 is based on new TC250 engine but has fuel injection and electric start.

Larger tank isn't supplied with the 250s but will be available shortly after launch as an aftermarket purchase. I think the reason this was included in the press info was that it's been a criticism in the past that the bigger tank wasn't available and that has stopped people considering purchasing the bike.

Hope this helps!

European press launch is early July so more info will be available then.

I still see the leg toasting mid pipe guards on the 2010 bikes. Doesn't Husky make the larger ones that Husky Sport UK has?

2009 Husky bumped the TE 250 and offered the TE 310. Wouldn't it be nice if they offered a bumped up the TE 510 to the TE 530!

Me too.

I'm not wild over the 2010 graphics but that TC250 is kinda sexy.

- Also, it looks like there is lots of room under the tank / above the motor for a bigger thank (for the 125 as well)

No, the frame and exhaust guards we have are after market, not factory items.

Just an FYI, folks-

I merged these two threads about the 2010 lineup. As Bernie's initial post was almost exactly the same as HuskySports, I left the one that was posted first and deleted the one that was posted second.

And now back to your regularly scheduled programming :)

With all that room under the 250's tank a taller 310/450/510/530 barrel are easy to imagine. Thats '11 i guess.

The TE250 then has the all new frame? And thats why the tank is 'only for the TE250', and not existing 310/450/510 bikes?

Just filing in the blanks.

These sure do look like production bikes in the pics.

With the US dealers meeting in July (where dealers order new bikes) its not hard to imagine product reaching the showroom floors 'on time' this year. Last year they had production bikes on hand to ride. I guess if they have some to ride this year, we will all be in good shape. Time will tell.

Im guessing Huskysport has their first bikes by late August, and Cali has some late September. Just a 100% guess.
