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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Fuel pump started during heavy braking?

About 30-35 miles into a full tank of fuel and the bike stumbles and sometimes stalls under heavy braking. I've done the fuel pump mod. Any thoughts? How many miles does everyone get out of a tank with a bike that has the power up kit and an Arrow exhaust with no tuning?
 
How many gallons do you put in when it nearly runs out of gas. I'm guessing 1.5 or so, in which case you should take the fuel pump assy back out and fix the slipping fuel pump problem again. If you just added a new cable tie like the stock one, that doesn't work. I had to do mine twice for that reason. Use safety wire or a long cable tie running end to end.

I think we have a winner. It does only take 1.5 gallons. I'll try it tomorrow and report back. If it works I'll put you on my Christmas card list.

Duuuugh..... switch to a blend.

Oh, and use a SS hose clamp in place of the zip-tie. Take the time to secure the low-fuel wires so they don't vibrate too. It will save you the trouble of fixing broken wires later.
