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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey all!

So I was doin my yearly valve lash adjustment on my 09 te310 and I happened to notice some odd wear marks and I was wondering if anyone else has seen this before. The bike has 2100 miles but some of that wasn't recorded bc the previous owner broke the speedo cable and never replaced it before I got the bike. I checked the hours when I bought it with ibeat and it had like 60hrs on it or something like that. It probably has more like 80 now but I haven't checked since. Anyways, I'd appreciate it if someone with a history of rebuilding these motors could chime in here. Btw, I think the marks may have something to do with the retaining clip between the followers.

I'll admit it looks slightly weird, but OTOH- it's on the base circle and not the lobes right? heat treatment maybe? I don't see an issue.

Maybe BT will chime in- I think he built engines in gas drag cars or something similar.
 
Looks normal to me. The follower rides on the cam it's going to shine it up eventualy. Check your clearance and run good oil.
 
Thanks for the info guys. And being that these are line bored heads it would be a total nightmare if the cams went lol
