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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Clutch Interchangeability? 250 parts in a 450/510

Hello all,
I have a 2007 TE 510 that needs a new clutch in a bad way... Both baskets are grooved badly, and the drive plates are blued/ warped (I found my dragging issue :rolleyes:) parts are becoming hard to find for the old girl, so does anyone know if a similar year TE250 clutch assembly will work in the 450/510? I have a sourced an almost new clutch assembly (inner and outer basket, friction and drive discs) so I could replace all the worn components in one move.

Some research shows it may be possible, but I'm curious if anyone has taken the leap due to parts availability issues? I'm sure Hall's cycle has everything I need, but I'm hesitant to drop the coin on all new parts considering the age and residual value of the bike.

Thanks.
 
For those interested, a 250 clutch assembly will not fit into a 450/510 due to the primary gear reduction being different between the 2 engine sizes. One could theoretically change the primary ratio, but I do not know how the 250 components would hold up almost double the HP of the 450/510.
