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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

how do I get my Husky to start first second kick?

well so far I have destroyed 2 sets of shoes and my finger from the kick back. When i first bought the bike (husky 570smr) It was meant to be a runner but when it arrived it hardly started with a push start but it run but it was impossible to start it with a kicker. Took the flywheel off and the magnets looked fine to me but the stator plate was shifted to the right for some reason, so i bolted it on back in place where the marks are , now it occasionally starts with the kick start but still a big pain to start. what can be done to have it starting nice and easy first second kick?

the stator plate was shifted? sound like your timing is out of spec..i would start there. when you move the stator plate a very small amount its a big change in timing
 
yes i know. got it back to original spec. now got to play with the carb hopefully that will sort it out
 
sharp left kicker by the way! some strong swede genes in that one! hope you get it sorted, looks like a fun bike
 
My buddy used to race an '01 TE570, an never could get the hang of starting it, or the carb dialed. I think that is the only year of the Mikuni carb, and the reason there was only one year. I believe '02 had the FCR, and I know they had Dellorto through 2000.
 
i have got the dellerto one. kehin was put on them 02+ nothing i can do that makes it start better, i guess i have to leve it like it is, i have to kick it over about 15 times untill it starts up, hopefully with time i will get the hang of it or come up with a solution
 
I had all kind of problems with my stock delorto, on my TE 410 98''.
The problem was solved as soon as I installed a Keihin FCR 39 from a KTM 520.
No more overflow inside the cylinder issues, very easy start, also improved my overall bike performance!!
It's no straight fit, but relatively easy fit.

Recomended upgrade for all delorto owners......:thumbsup:

What's involved in fitting it? New boot, but what else?

First you will have to remove only the Choke plastic lever as it hits the inside of the tank and plug the hole with metal part of the choke.

Second remove all the side screws for washers pipes & the washer pipes.

And third in order to fit the carb you have to rotate it a little bit to the left.
It also may require to heat the inside of the tank to make some more room for the carb to fit well.

I can post some pics if you like, in order you to see how it's bolted on the bike.
 
My 86 510 was the same way, I jump started it more then I'd to count. I was looking in a old Dirt Bike mag (86 test) & they had a starting technic, which I now follow. My also has the Del lorto carb, what they said is this & I follow it to the letter.

1) Cold gas & choke on 2) kick the bike thru (not hard, like you want it to start) 10-12 times. I find it will start easily if when I'm doing the cold pre start kicks thru, if it slightly back fires or pops. To me it means it getting the fuel in to the cylinder, just not at the right exact time 3) get the pison to top dead center, (I put the bike in second 1/4 stroke, In neutral of course (on my bike, I can usually feel the kicker get easier to move or I hear a de compression sound) STOP, let the kicker return to the top ,
now kick it over.. NO throttle ... Mine start 99% of the time on the 1st kick

Sounds like a big pain, but once you've done a few times, it comes as 2nd nature.

Mine also does like to re-start again til it's warm, so I make sure I'm ready to go when it fires. After less then a 1/2 minute of
running with choke on , it's good to go, just don't stall it for a few minutes or your jumping it.

Same technic starting hot just NO choke & still no throttle & no pre start kick thru.

try it u maybe surprised

yes thats what i have been doing got it to start a bit easier.kick it over with the choke on lightly about 4-5 times till it pops and thurn the choke off and give it a nice kick or 2 and it runs :P but im still thinking of changing the carb, i couldhave bought the mikuni 41mm but missed out on that, now wondering with the fcr 39 have you got any pictures of how it sits? and where to get a rubber boot to fit the carb? or would it be fine in the standard one?

Ok , I will post some pics probably in the weekend.
As for the rubber boot, my mechanic that fitted the carb, told me that the stock one might fit as well.
He used one from a TE 570 SMR, as my stock one wasn't in good condition.
 
Sorry I didn't have time to wash the bike......

Ok here you go...

I hope that helps.
 
I ended up putting on a different carb . Someone listed a mikuni flat side I thought it was the tmr 41 without checking it and bought it. Turns out it's a 40 mikuni flat side of a ktm 640 and it's set up for the husky as the guy had it on his 610. It starts with 2 3 kicks so I'm quiet pleased with it. Haven't got the throttle cables yet so I can't see if there is any difference but I think it's going to be alot smoother . I will let you know and post some pics up
