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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2013 tc250 exhaust mod?

Remove heads of rivets from end cap. Cut screen from end cap. Remove pinched piece of pipe from other side of silencer using tin snips, pliers, grinders, whatever you have. This part is kind of a pain in the arse. Rivet end cap back on. Viola now you have a regular silencer that sounds nice and isn't too loud and unchokes your motor.
 
Seeing as this was july I'd say you've already done it. If not I wouldnt bother as it makes no difference to the performance whatsoever!

A little late for my comment, but yes, I agree. I have two of these bikes. One original and one with the screen removed and the "pinch" area also removed. Sounds a little louder, but if there is a power difference, I sure don't feel it. I'll leave the stock one alone.
 
I agree I did this exhaust mod to a 511 I had. The only thing that I truly accomplished was destroying a perfectly good spark resistor. Lesson learned, so when I bought my tc 250 I got a PC exhaust and left the stock one alone. I never even started the bike with the stock exhaust, so I really don't know if it is true or not but they say the PC exhaust will add 4-5 HP and for the $ I felt it worth the price.
 
I just fitted a Pro circuit T5 full system to my 2013 TC250. while it is slightly cleaner in the mid range there isnt any noticable extra power up top or in the mid. oh well at least it looks nice...

The T5 is an awesome system no doubt. Can't go wrong there. However, Thanks for sharing your honest results. Typical though that the magazines reviews I've read insist that the stock Akropovich system has to go. I run the stock system and no other stock 250 out there out "drag racing" me, so far. It's my own riding that may make me fall behind later :-). They just always seem to feel the need to say something about Husky that is bad. Every Time!! One article even complained about the grips. Really? Most people replace them with their favorite anyway. It that the best you MX magazines have to offer me? Grips?
