  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 TE310 and IMS tank fitting issues

Wondering if anyone else is having issues with the fitting of the bigger 2.9 IMS tank and their seat pan? I have a new to me 2013 TE310 and can’t make the seat and IMS tank fit very well together. There seems to be a 1” gap that’s completely bulging the back of my seat, meaning the tank needs to be more forward because the pan doesn’t sit down onto the tank. It’s like the IMS tank has a bad mold (swollen) where the front part of the seat and tank meet up (slide together). Anyone else have this gap or problems fitting the two?
 
I don't have that tank. But I caution you that that bike has a tendency to boil the fuel in the tank in hot weather in tight woods.

I guess being in BC is is cool up there, though.
 
I have the same bike and tank. I just let the seat bulge a little. Thinking it might be where the seat attaches to the upper part of tank. Thinking about shaving some material somewhere but not sure where. So far its not an issue when riding

Yes it does boil the gas. I had a bad vent on the aftermarket gas cap and it swelled the tank. I put the stock hose back on and all was fine.
I bent the tabs up a little where the middle part of the seat attaches to the frame and that helped. I also used a 3 pound sledge hammer to tap the tank in place. I then used the hammer on the seat and it snugged up much better.
Wondering if the tank insulation kits i see keep the fuel from boiling?
