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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Anybody have any idea how to hook up this Lifan CDI to my 2000 SM610S?

Alright, I've troubleshooted my starting/running issues back to a bad CDI with help from a previous thread. It was mentioned that at least one CafeHusky wizard managed to get his bike running with a cheap Chinese Lifan 150 CDI, so I decided to pick one up!

It finally arrived today, and I'm realizing that the pin outs aren't as obvious, as say, making a reg/rec fit from one bike to another. Some things like ground are pretty obvious, but I'd rather not trial-and-error the rest.

If somebody has experience with the conversion and willing to shed some light, or even if somebody has a half decent wiring diagram for my generation of 610 (my husky service manual is sorely lacking), it would be much appreciated!

esskay, I have the same problem with my Husky. No spark and I have traced the fault to the CDI. The price for a new one is astronimical, would you mind sharing the modification to the Lifan 150cdi to fit the SM610S (2000 model)

Thanks in advance.
 
Esskay i do have a decently readable wiring diagram for your/my bike, if you're interested. I can send it to you along with the complete workshop manual.

mg94, could you send me the wiring diagram please, I have traced all the cables from my CDI unit on the Husky and should receive the Lifan CDI and loom tomorrow. There appears to be no wiring diagram with it though! There are various diagrams on the web but most seem to contradict each other!

Sure, no problem! If you send me a PM with a email address I'll mail it to you.
