  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Anyone with the Map switch on a 2015-16 FE350-501?

The new model that has 2 positions. I need to know if it's only a on-off or of there is a resistance in there(if you are so inclined to used a multimeter to check). The end connector should be behind the front number plate.

My dealer loaded up the Australia map(according to him it the best on a stock bike with stock exhaust) so I should have map-switch capabilities. Bikes runs very good so far, trying to see if it will make a difference.

If it's only on-off, I have a ton of switches I could use, even if it's a resistor, I can add one in the switch.

Thank you :)
 
Ended up finding this in another thread after lots of googling.

For reference:

OK my 1st post (coming over from the 'orange side' w/ a shiny new '16 TE300. Re: the OEM map swich that is integral to the front brake master cylinder; since the documentation that came with the bike brand new 48 hours ago did not cover this I decided to figure it out for myself scientifically. the manual does mention that the black and the gray wire, that when plugged together (i.d. closed circuit) invokes the performance curve. Unplugged (i.e. open circuit) invokes the non-aggressive curve. I then broke out the Fluke 87-V multimeter set to 'ohms' and checked the continuity across the actual wiring going to the switch. Pos'n I = continuity (closed circuit). Pos'n II = no continuity (open circuit), so....putting two and two together we find that position 1 = performance and position 2 = non-aggressive. That was easy wasn't it!!!
