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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

ok so i noticed that my bike is farting out (lil backfire then dies) when goin to take off quite a bit on hilly stuff going up and down (not good in some spots) it does just fine on flat farm ground and the like. im wondering if its gearing or my carb needs adjusted or both..... heres another one i cant find where the mixture screw on the thing either, a pic or simple directions would be appreciated thanks
 
Mine acted very simmilar. It would flame out on a hill if I cut the throttle, never could get idle adjusted to suit me, etc.

JD Jetting jet kit fixed ALL my problems. Best money I've spent on the bike to day.

This is a run of the mill FCR carb, so mix screw is in the same place as all other 4 strokes for the last 5 years (or more).. It's on the back of the carb, on the bottom. Right in front of the overflow bottle. I have a "tusk" brand mix screw... $11 or so, works like a champ.


I'm 99.999999997% certain that the JD Jet kit will fix your woes.
 
thanks for the response andy, thats exactly what mine is doing. cut the throttle and it dies. obviously your not goin to go flying everywhere and it was pissin me off in some of the spots, love when it dies in the exact spot where your legs cant reach on either side hahaha anyway i will have to try that jd jet kit.

Hurts too, especially when you go in reverse on an uphill

(in a better world)A JD jet kit would've come taped to the seat of these bikes right from the dealer, or been installed when the bike was popped out of the crate. As good as the FCR carbs are, the bike specific kits from JD make them run almost perfect in a wide range of conditions.
 
seems to be the main complaint ive seen on theese bikes is that one lil tweak and they run like a raped ape, guessin its all to get them past the epa as ive seen said before too???
 
well got to ride for a lil while the last cpl of days and it really seems to have solved the problem with the stalling and seems to run crisper and cleaner. thanks again for the info on that jd kit!!
 
ill be honest i didnt do it, i took it the shop. i have a old rm tore apart in my little area of my garage. thats my learner on the whole bike mechanics thing. so that bein said i didnt want to screw my new bike up lol they stuck the red one in.
 
I think I used the red one in mine too... I don't remember. I just followed the instructions.

Glad it fixed you up Rocket.
