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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Couple of '06 (or therabouts) TE/SMR/TC 450/510 Questions

Can anyone out there grab me a picture of how the oveflow line from the radiator is routed to the overflow bottle on an 06 vintage TE/SMR/TC 450/510? Trying to put mine together and I for the life of me cannot remember how it is supposed to be routed.

Anyone have a skid plate that will work for this bike they want to sell? Or any recommendations for what to buy?

Thanks

Joel
 
Thanks for the reply, I spent a decent amount of time looking through the parts fiche as well as the service manual for my bike and still haven't been able to discern where the proper routing is. That is why I am hoping for a photo from someone.

Might wind up calling Uptite for the skidplate but have a line on a hyde racing products unit, any opinions good or bad on those?

Joel, if you can't get a pic, I would try giving Hall's a call. They've always been extremely helpful when I have questions.

On the skidplate, Hyde makes good stuff.

Hyde is plastic Uptite is aluminum. Both are good it's up to you as to which you prefer.
 
07 te 450. Goes along right hand side of frame, through the gap, down behind carby, above starter motor and follows carb vent lines through metal bracket and onto overflow bottle.:thumbsup:

Huskymad,

Thanks alot for the pictures! That is exactly what I needed. Gotta say I would have never thought it went that way, mostly the part where it goes through the gap in the frame by the top of the shock.

Thanks again,

Joel
 
Mine wines up dangerously close to the rear shock spring. Been wondering if there was a better way. Here is a Flatland Skid plate. Not a work of art like Upties but got a deal and effective. image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg
