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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Did you get a tool kit?

Guys,
I just changed the oil in my Terra, spent the day in my "Old Guys Garage"....I looked at the equivilent 10w50 at a local bike shop...it was $12 US for a qt. I went to a local auto parts store you know those three guys....castrol syntec 5w50 was $8.00 US so in keeping with my new toys requiremets as closely as I could.....ahem
I got the 5w50....my manual fob thing was buggered up so I found an oil change thread on here and used the info therein....found my new bike was low on oil as well as coolant....so much for a big time dealerships cred to me.....
At any rate the plug had loads of gunk caught up on ther magnet probe and my drain pan stays in a clean place so when I drained the waste oil into the bottles I looked in the dregs....lots of shiney bits and what reminded me of waste material you'd find in a threaded boss inside of some thing mechanical........It was different finding the bung I had to remove to drain the oil tank....it was so tight I removed it after the oil drained....next is to check the air filter....chain maintainence was pulled as it was getting funky....
I'll admit I am new to dual sport bikes not motorcycles as a whole ,I've been riding since I was young and doing most of my own maintainance along the way on all of my motorcycles....I enjoy the time with my motorcycles....its good to know one can do these things and it be right....at least I wouldn't let one leave my shop to start its life low on oil and coolant.....
If I may ask of any readers who own Terras did everyone get a tool kit with their bike from new? I didn't and my sales guy doesn't know how to respond to me...

I peeled your post off from the other thread.

While you did state you were using Castrol 5w50, your question seems to be about the tool kit.

No I did not get a tool kit with my bike.
 
No tool kit on my Terra. I've asked for one several times thru my dealer but no luck so far. I'm pretty sure that the factory knows that kits were not shipped with the early bikes, so they must not want to deal with it now. All I really want from it is the tall plug socket and the shock adjust spanner.
 
I got one with my bike but "tool kit" is a bit of an exaggeration. It is a couple of tools. Enough to adjust the suspension or change the plugs but not sufficient to adjust the chain. *boggle*
 
One email to my dealer (Eurosport Asheville NC) ...asking kindly about lack of a tool kit...two days later they emailed saying it was in...great service. Some say maybe it shoulda been there to start with...I kinda like that sort of attitude..highly recommend them!

It's not much...but the spark plug socket is long and skinny..I gotta bunch of SP sockets...but none like it! Worth having IMHO.
 
Just got a phone call out of the blue today from Donnells, said the new bikes had come with a tool kit so he'd ordered me one and it had come in. Good dealer, I am glad they picked up the Husky line.
 
Heck ya, another KC guy. Donnell's is pretty awesome, they've got me converted from the orange.

Mine did not come with a kit, so I guess I'll need to check with them next time I'm there.
 
Got mine at Donnell's a couple weeks ago and my Terra came with a toolkit. Agree, Donnell's is a great dealership.
 
Well I just email the USA head office to see if they are going to provide them. So now it's wait and see.
 
I'm not sure I would really call this a tool kit.:thinking:

First try with my dealer, they presented me with a document stating toolkits are not included nor are they supposed to be included.

I called USA head office and the receptionist told me Husqvarna was aware some bikes were missing their toolkits. That the toolkits are available as a warranty item and the dealers just need to file a claim.

So call my dealer back and they assure me they will look into it again and figure out how to file a warranty claim. Not reassuring if I ever have a real warranty issue.
 
Emailed my dealer today and was told that tool kits were on the way.....SOooo maybe we do get one....looking forward to the plug and shock spanner tools.
 
Got one with my Beta 350 RS.

5mm hex with ball end
two way phillips and slotted screw driver
