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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I'm sure you'll have plenty of chances to "muddy" things up a bit! :cheers:

What are the differences between the '10 and '11?
 
DITTO ! !

What is the oil capacity on that new engine?

I'm thinking of trading up from my 2009, which carries 1.7 liters.

Thanks,

Thanks for the specs.

The bike is a tempting beauty, and you're saying it handles like a 125 in the woods compared to your 2010 250. . .

.9 liters of oil worries me. . . I do a lot of slow stuff in the trees and rocks.

I guess I can just change it out every ride.

My 310 has been super reliable.

I was concerned about the oil capacity on the new motor as well. We've got 11 months and about 45 hours of MX riding and practice on our '10 TC 250 and the engine is strong as ever. The valves have been checked 4 times in that timeframe and have not moved since new! I used to change the oil every 2 hours (or two races) but have extended it to 4 hours or 3 races since April and no problems. Based on my experience with our TC and my '10 TXC, I'd say the new engine is bulletproof.
 
Nice Bike! :thumbsup:
I have one on order; ETA in Canada is November...
Very interested in the mods & additions to your bike, can you give sources & reasons for doing them?
What do you think of the new skidplate, can it take a beating in rocks & protect the engine & frame adequately?
Are you planning any rad-guards?
 
Strange place to mount the horn. That thing is going to get packed with mud. If it were me, I would relocate it or remove it if you are not riding on the street.
 
That bike...........is AWSOME!!! Im sold! Anyone want a '03 CRF or YZ?! LOL! Congrats on the new ride! I have been looking for a replacement and I think I have found it. Ever since I heard Husky was going to base the new 310 on last years 250 I knew it would be a nice bike. I wonder how it will do at race pace in the Northeast hare scrambles???
 
Transmission??

Can you let me know if its got a very narrow range trans, or is it a bit wider?

I guess what I want to know is if you can crawl along at 10 kph what is the speed at a reasonable rpm (5000 or so) in 6th?

Thanks!

Thanks...Do they have a catalog or a website of these branded special parts? Got a link? I can not seem to find any......

but i'll see if i still have the packaging from the carbon stuff and get the part numbers for you.

Kool..Thanks again :thumbsup:
 
Range

I read one post that a new TE 310 rider was getting 60 miles to a tank of gas. Is that what you are seeing too? I would have thought a 8.5 litres would get no less than 100 miles before you see the reserve kicks in.

Wouldn't 13 miles per litre be more accurate???
