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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Anyone adjust their 2010 250 valves yet?

Just askin'. I checked mine after an hour and they were ok. May do them again over the Xmas Holiday but still don't have a manual in case I need to shim.
 
I haven't even changed the oil in mine. I had to check that ridiculous thing they call a manual to see how much oil I'll need. I noticed they switched from 10/60 to 10/50
 
I don't have that worried feeling yet to check the valves, not enough time on her yet. I am also waiting for that picture thread on doing it to come along..

Darkside: My oil came out pretty black the first two times I changed mine and I am doing it after every ride right now. It is very easy and if you measure out 950cc of oil there is no need to guess, just check the window after your done. I have found that using a triangle stand on the right hand side of the axle speeds things up. I had a smaller Yamaha one that fits it and then I do not have to hold onto the bar to get the oil all out. It also aids in not making such a mess with the filter.
 
That's a good idea. I went riding pretty much all day last Sunday, but the hour meter says I only rode for 3 hours. I'm pretty sore for three hours. :)
I'll change my oil after every ride too.

Do these bikes have a sight window for checking oil level?
