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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

hey guys , ive a 00 610te , engine wont work , right here we go , she has fuel and spark , wen bumped on a rolling road she will run , will not start off the button , she swings n swings but just wont fire , what am i missing , its has my mechanic driven mad (he is a tuner and builds race bikes he knows his way around everything) please any help will b great
 
Maybe not swinging fast enough. Sometimes a battery seems healthy but missing that extra umph of cranking amps to spin the engine fast enough to fire. Try jump starting the battery and see if bike starts. If it does then replace your battery.

Roughly the same happened to my 630 on the German Autobahn. The starter cranked but it wouldn´t fire. Turned out that the very slim wire to the battery on the left hand side had shed its battery clamp (had come off). A kind police patrolman lent me a pair of pliers.

+1 on compression check.

Why would compression make a difference between bump starting and button starting? I think bump starting turns the engine over slower than electric does. Low compression would let electric starter turn engine even faster than normal. I still think this has to be electrical. Need OP to update what he's done since starting this thread.

Electric starting actually turns an engine slower than kicking it but obviously spins it for longer giving the motor more chances to fire. Bump starting again gives more chances for an engine to catch and will spin it faster still.

Poor starting is a common first indicator of low compression, I'd be checking valves / rings if the OP is certain valve timing is 100% correct.

Kicking yes but bumping in gear I would think slower from the tranny ratio. In either case I wouldn't think it would be that much different to start one way and not the other.
