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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I didn't think I should have to re time a new bike!

Pulled the valve cover and plug and found TDC here's the 1st 2 problems I saw!

Then looked from the other side and saw problem #3

Then checked cam alignment.

Putting it back together:

Hit the starter and it fired in 3 turns and sounds much better. I thought it ran good before, should really run now that it's in time. Had to slow the idle down and raise the CO settings. Can't wait till the rain stops to try her out.

So much for the expert Husky mechanic. I'm going to call him tomorrow and give him hell! for banged up radiator and 3 teeth out of time. I had to redo his screw up and I didn't even get warranty reimbursement.
 
You da man!

How many miles on this bike?



.

450 miles, had the clutch push rod and cam tesioner upgrades done, wonder if i should pull the clutch apart to see if its right. at least the valves were right on.
no wonder the previous owner thought it was a lemon.
 
good job at finding the problem and you no doubt found out why the previous owner probably sold it.
