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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
If anyone is still struggling with their 2013 TE310R I had similar issues so I spent a weekend testing. I was very disappointed with the way it ran as delivered by the dealer. I would make one change then test the results. Below is what worked for me. She runs great now, pulls strong off the bottom and revs out nicely. No flame outs. No hesitation. No restricted power.
I ride exclusively in the dirt but need a plate to connect trails.
1. Removed the restrictive air filter cage and replace it with one from the TXC.
2. Removed the mesh backfire screen from the air filter cage.
3. Removed the red velocity stack (Bored out the restricted end of the velocity stack but it still ran better without it).
4. Had the ECU re-flashed with the "Race" settings. Note: according to my dealer there are 3 setting for the 2013 model. Standard, Race, Race with modified exhaust.
5. Removed the canister and blocked off the fitting on the intake manifold.
6. O2 sensor is still in place and attached. It ran poorly when I disconnected it.
7. No changes to the exhaust system yet. It's running so good I'm not sure if I will make any changes.
8. No throttle adjustments have been necessary. I don't believe that this year had a throttle restrictor.
My two cents. Good luck!
Good call Andrew. Any idea how much remapping should be? Got quoted $75 by the local dealer, seems high.On these bikes, removal of the O2 sensor is not necessary. On the Mikuni injected bikes, it was removed because the connector needed to be shorted with a resistor to tell the EFI system to use the 'powered up' fuel map.
However, with the new bikes, you have to have the ECU programmed to use the non-restricted map. Doing this is pretty much essential for good performance.
