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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

FE/FC FE 350 turning lights off

Apologies for being a bit lazy with this one:

I rode an indoor Endurocross event at the weekend (first motorbike race ever) and I got a bit of grief for not turning my lights off. The timekeeping was manual and they were having difficulty seeing my number head-on due to the lights being on (no comment).

Other than pulling a fuse out, am I right in thinking there's no way to turn them off?

Thanks in advance for any replies.
 
Shouldn't the light switch have three positions 1=pilot light, middle=main light and 3=high beam?

Not now, EU regulations state you have to have daylight running lights, so the new style switches have the first position blanked off. Using the older 3 position swich, it may be possible to turn the lights off if the wiring is the same. Otherwise fit another switch in series with the lighting supply wire (Yellow)
 
Just buy a dpst switch and install in series with the power wire to the main headlight and zip tie it to the handlebar.
