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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE/TC 2stroke daily picture thread

21167211_10159135950130580_5126914477234480282_o.jpg Won master class on my 17 te250 last year. Great bike JD jet kit,sx head that is it ran great. Have 85 hours and noticed around 60-70 hour suspension starting to get harsh so oil must be toast. Thinking about getting suspension done by Kreff and getting revalve option on forks. Very expense $1200.00 wonder if anybody has tried the Kreff revalve stuff yet.
 
At around the same hours on my 2017 TE300 I just had the forks serviced (no revalve, just oil) and a cleanup. Changed the CC's very slightly after seeing that I was not using the complete stroke. Felt like new again. Would try the simple change before spending the big money on the Kreft set up. Unless you were really fighting the suspension before. For me, it has been great!
 
No I really liked the suspension originally worked good maybe a little stiffer front spring as I was using preload adjuster to keep forks up in stroke that would be it. Was very surprised how much they changed after 60 -70 hours. Also alway hoping for better if possible. Thanks for your help.
 
Got a question for all of you 2 stroke guys as this is my first 2 stroke. How often are you guys doing a top end job on your bikes? I have a little over 3,000 miles on mine and it is still running flawlessly but i would like to keep it that way and not blow anything up. I know this has prolly been asked on this forum a dozen times but i cant seem to find a thread so figured i would just ask.

Thanks in advance for the info!!

I did mine @ 80 hrs and ill tear it down again at 160. I’ve heard some say up to 200 hrs but I wouldn’t go that far. Depends on how hard you’re riding and well the bike runs. I pulled mine out @ 80 and it looked great.

bingo great point- if the spring rates are right for the rider weight/style of riding a simple service of the dampers every 20-40 hr. is key for proper damping action and longer bush life etc. mreeep mreeep!
 
I was planning on doing my bike at 100 hours. Bikes got 85 hours now and just did compression test 185 psi the same as new and bike has been ridden as hard as I can ride it.
 
I did my top end at around 70hrs.
Really depends on how you are riding it.
I put a full hare scramble series in this year on top of lots of trail riding.
When working it that hard, better safe than sorry.
Piston was perfect, rings were a little soft.
Changed it all anyway, used stock components. Cleaned PV.
Using AMSOIL Saber @80:1.
 
My premix is the AMSOIL Saber @80:1.
I run Bel Ray Gear saver 80W-85 in the engine.

Next time I roll the bike out I will take a picture with the studs.
Enduro that was supposed to take place on Sunday has been postponed until the 11th, so no seat time this weekend.

Here is a shot of the bike after a hare scramble this fall instead.IMG_5379.jpg
