• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 txc 310 ( starter ripped out of crank case

Thundergut75

Husqvarna
First week with my txc . First ride I noticed a oil leak on bike when I was loading it back on the truck am the end of a 3 hour trail ride . I cleaned the bike up and I noticed the bike was leak inking oil pretty bad from the rubber grummet coming out of the fly wheel cover . I took it about and fixed the problem . I put the bike back together and added oil . Fired the bike up and it sounded fine . I but the bike in gear and went for about 50 feet and the bike stalled . I hit the el start and the bike would not turn over . I treys to kick start and the kick start would not move . I noticed the bike was leaking oil again so I took a good look at the bike and noticed the starter was forced about a 1 1/2 out of the crank case and the house ing was broke off on the flywheel side of the bike. . At this point I new I was in real trouble. .
Anyone ever have this problem ?
 
Haven't seen that before, but wow that sucks.

I'm not very familiar with e-starts. But I wonder why it would torque off the case like that. Hope you can get it welded up/sorted out.
