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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

FE/FC 2016 FE350 Adjustments

Hi guys,

I'm going to purchase a 16 Fe 350 in the next week or so.
I know these bikes are great but also know there are a few things that need to be done to them straight out of the box: rider sag, suspension adjustments etc.

Does anyone out there know of any other helpful hints to improve the bike straight out of the box?

Any suspension settings? or little tricks to improve it?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Cheers
 
First thing you should do is change the springs to suit your weight, if you are outside the weight range for the stock springs. This change was the biggest bang for my buck on my 2015 FE350s, it makes the bike run so much smoother through the trail trash. There is a spring rate calculator on racetech.com, also the owners manual has some suggestions for rider weight up to about 200 pounds.

Man just got mine broke in and rode it somewhat hard for the first time. I just came off a 2011 WR250. What a difference, I can see a lot of good points on this bike. I usually dont do any mods except gaurds. The bike is quiet which is good for me, I can ride by my house. I rode a buddies KTM 350SX and it is definitely got more snap to it. Its stock also.
