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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2012 te310 fork oil

Hi All

New member to this forum, looks like a lot of good info on here.
I have a question about the volume of fork oil in my forks. I have a 2012 te310 with the open cartridge kyayba forks, the seals were weeping a bit so decided to change them.

I took the fork legs apart to remove the old fork and dust seals ect drained the oil from the leg,I did not take the the piston rod and cartridge out as I didn't think it was needed just to change the seals, I put the whole lot back together. The manual says fill the fork with 674cm3 of oil, problem being that's imposable it wont all fit, then as the manual describes measuring the oil line to the top of the outer tube at a distance of 115mm leaves me with about 450cm3 of oil in each fork so something aint right. Is there more oil in the cartridge and piston ect which is still in or have I completely screwed the whole thing up and done something very wrong.

All advice, opinions and taking the piss greatly appreciated.

Ta

Andy
