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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Any 2011 TC250 feedback?

Done a search and haven't seen much if anything in the way of reviews or real world feedback on the 2011 TC250. Anyone around here have any insight into it?
 
I know one guy who has one and he says it is stonger than his 2010 TC250 but it can be a little tricky to start when hot.
 
Difficult hot starting on a fuel injected bike is unforgivable! Why in the planet of Hell is Husky clinging to Mikuni as a supplier for ANYTHING except toilet paper???!!!

That's interesting....I'm not a fan of the FI system they're running on those bikes but hard restarting wouldn't be one of the issues I would expect. If anything I was more worried about it being prone to low speed flameouts as that system doesn't make a good impression on me as far as running true and smooth like the TXC449 I just picked up...
 
If you're thinking about buying, I'd hold out for 2012 IMO. From a pic posted of a TC 250 works race bike, there *may* be the possibility of Keihen EFI instead of Mikuni and a new head (maybe with a better autodecomp???). I love everything about my TXC 250 except for its hot starting issues...they seem to plague many of the Husky x-lite motors to some degree.
