• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 smr510 cold start needs hot start lever. Why???

Hey guys
Just got my bike back from the dealer. I had starting issues, 335 dollars later it starts but when it's cold I need to pull the lever to get it started. Otherwise it just cranks and cranks but doesn't start. I just got it back last wednesday so if something is wrong I can get it adjusted for free. The dealer wasn't too educated with my bike. They had it for 3 weeks just to reprogram the ecu with ibeat. Also after warmup if I turn the bike off and restart it the rpms r much lower and unstable. As far as I know they didn't reset the tps, and the values are set to 115 in 3 settings. No baffles and power up kit installed. Any help is appreciated thanks
 
Sorry to hear about your SMR I have the same bike and same year.
On the F/I bikes the knob on the throttle body is a choke not a hot start.
When they hooked it up to ibeat they surely would have checked
the TPS,find this out and ask what is the WOT% set at, that should of been
the first thing they did,If that is off everything else is for not. It's hard to say what
could be wrong,mine had starting issues when I first got it,now in the right
state of tune it fires up at the first push of the go button
All you can do at this point if you are not happy is to bring it back to the dealer
and give them a chance to make it right,for the $335.00 you paid them you could of bought your
own ibeat and then your trips to the dealer for tuning and diagnostics would be over.
I strongly believe If you are gonna own a F/I bike you need the tools to maintain it
I think the ibeat should come with every new bike that is sold as part of the tool kit.
Hang in there and work through this the 2010 510smr is a killer bike when set up right.
 
Uhhhhhhh I went back today to talk to the mechanic and I'm on my own now. They are trying to charge me 100/ hr to tinker with the bike so I guess I'll get ibeat and do things on my own. The mechanic told me that he reset the tps but not by setting any values or checking to make sure it's at 100.4 or watever it's supposed to be. Overall bike runs pretty good but the stalling at idle has me dumbfounded to be honest. I guess I'll have to play with it and figure it out alone.

Doing it your self will be your best bet
If it is idling to low screw in the air mixture screw in till it comes up
where you want it.There is more than enough info on this site
to get you through anything.

If all they did was what you said...
they hooked it up to Ibeat= 30seconds
opened the TPS screen= 10 seconds
Clicked "SET"= 5 seconds
and disconected the bike from Ibeat= 30 seconds

so for 1.25 minutes they spent on your bike and not entirely setting the bike up, and your 335$, time and gas transporting it, frustration, I'd say your better off doing it yourself... yea

"tinkering" should not be an accurate description at $100/hour

when you get your Ibeat- set the WOT to 100.2, fine tune adjust the Air bypass Screw, verify the Coolant temp sensor is working properly, Ride/ test/ determine if CO settings need adjusting- lotsa good info on this forum to support you.

Good luck!
 
i have a te510 which is essentialyy the australian version and i had the same drama my bike was idleing heaps irrationally and then just stalling i tried a few things like adjusting the idle screw and the fast idle choke screw but it turned out my battery didnt have enough juice so i put a brand new battery in and and played with my idle screw and fast idle screw and adjusted it to 1650-1700 rpm and problem solved hopefully its that simple
