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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Bye Bye TE310! It was fun

:) I sold my 2010 TE310 yesterday. It's going to a new owner who I am sure will enjoy it as much as I did. I am getting a 2013 Husaberg TE300 so something had to go to make room. I really like a 2 Strokes better as my dedicated woods bike. I sold a KTM200XC for the 310 but I miss 2stroke for sure. Colorado reminded me how much I love a 2 stroke power band.

In my 2 years, my favorite thing about this bike is the motor hands down. It has plenty of power yet is very docile at slow speeds. There is no where this bike can't go. Hard to stall and plenty of beans.

here's my assessment (opinion) 2010 TE 310
Pro's
1. strong motor with plenty of power
2. Goes where you point it/turns well
3. Pretty decent stock suspension
4. easy oil changes
5. Good ergo's

Neg's
1. Mikuni EFI. Now I am not talking about how the EFI performs per say. I had the Husky Race ECU and it fueled the bike well. What I don't like is the limited tuning capability and the fact that you MUST have battery power for the system to work. I know the newer bike have gone to the Kehin system. I don't like having the additional electrical circuit, fuel pump etc. on a woods bike. This is a personal preference. While fuel injection is good stuff, I really prefer a carb'd bike when I go out into the unknown.
2. Air cleaner access. Pretty tight in there. This is a SMALL nit.
3. Speedo/Instrument, no adjustable trip meter! Come on, really? again a small nit.
4. Needs a taller 6th gear. 6th gear could be alot taller and make the bike much nicer for transfer sections and road use.

All in all, it has been a great bike that goes anywhere you can point it and stay on. If I had room, I would have kept it, but I have a 525 for DS duty and a back up bike, so I let the 310 go.

Still have my 2006 SM610 though! Love that Husky too!

I think the 310 is one of the better all purpose off road bikes in the line up of the 4 strokes IMO.
 
I love 2 st also but kept my Te 310 and got a WR125 to stay with Husky! Just busting you balls, hope you enjoy your new bike and hope to meet you at Boom Boom's woods loop one day.
 
Yeah, I will be taking the new sled up to the BB woods loop to do some break ins! I would have been riding a Husky WR300 a long time ago if it had 6 speed and a hydro clutch:cool:

I wanted to keep it, but then again I always want to keep all bikes! iF i COULD HAVE ALONG THE PATH OF LIFE, I would have a pretty cool collection!
 
:thumbsup: Good luck with the new bike I really like my 510 too, but miss the power to weight ratio of my old 300 2st and simplicity of the motor when it comes time to work on them.
