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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2014 Te310r Brembo Lever Upgrades? Skid Pan?

I'm having a heck of a time trying to find some better levers and a beefier skid plate for my 14 te310r that i picked up this past spring.
This bike might be part unicorn.
Please help!
 
I am using ARC composite levers. Like them alot. As far as skid plate. I am using a Hyde but they may be hard to find.

I was looking for a some parts and did notice Hall's lists some for Brembo. Italian : Hall's Cycles (dealerspikeparts.com)
Also they do show a Enduro Engineering Aluminum skid plate. The single front screw version they show for an older 310 may be the same fit wise. Enduro Engineering Aluminum Skid Plate : Hall's Cycles (dealerspikeparts.com)

One more possible option on the skid plate. ZipTy shows skid plates for the 2010 TCX 250. They attach with a single screw in front also. Wonder if they may fit? Husqvarna – ziptyracing
 
I have used sheap alibab.... levers. The ones that folds. They are kinda sharp but I dont care about the finnish. I put them new in my vice and shape them to my profile. I make my skidplates by myself, out of 5mm HD 1000 plastic. All you need is a heatgun and a hand saw. Best thing is that they will protect exactly what you want it to protect. I make mine going all the way from the front and back over the linkage.

Thanks! It seems like the ARC levers are the best option. In some catalogs they show compatibility with my model but when I go to the ARC site they don't seem to confirm fitment.
I've waiting to hear back from Hyde for confirm on skid plate fitment.
The red skid plate will look so sick on my red and black Te.

That's a grand idea to fab up your own skid! I've thought about doing the same with carbon fiber since I have a few connections that play with carbon lay ups.
I'll take a peak at those levers too!
Thanks!
 
The ARC levers were just specific to the Brembo. Luckily in my box of parts I have the ARC part number... I did one mod to the ARC on the clutch side, where the stock clutch had a spring that set in a hole in the lever mount. The metal part of the lever would rattle a little against the metal of the mount when riding. I cut some rubber the size of a pencil eraser and shoved it into the lever mount hole where the spring would set. Problem solved. Some silicone would work well too. Otherwise awesome. Have crashed a number of times including some lava rock and they work well as I don't use bar protectors.

Glad I got my stock skid plate as a backup!

Forgot to mention besides the stop on the left lever, the right stock guard needs subtle dremel trimming to accommodate the pivot in the ARC lever as shown.
