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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Head removal

Hi, new to this forum but some of the user names sure look familar. I have a 2007 TE250 and need to replace my intake valves. I've never removed the head on this bike or any four stroke. I did download the service manual so that helps but I was wondering if there was anything to look out for. I plan to remove the head and take it someone to replace the valves. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

On the 250 its not too big a deal, since you don't have to pull the motor out of the frame to get everything apart. Another user posted THIS over on Thumpertalk. You can get the parts manual from Hall's (buy something from them - good people). The workshop manual (for 2004, but very little changed as far as top end tear-down is at HERE.


Take your time, take pictures, go slow, use a Sharpy to mark parts. I like having a bunch of 1 gallon zip lock bags so I can put parts and related fasteners all together. You want a decent torque wrench to put it all back together - and hey! - now's a great time to add a310 kit!

It is actually pretty easy, have fun.
