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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

IMS Tank for TE630

I'm tired of waiting so.....,I ordered a 5 gallon 610 tank yesterday from JustGasTanks.com I found a thread somewhere the other day, (might not have been on cafehusky) about fitting an external fuel pump to the 630. Buggered if I can find it now. It listed a pump that should do the trick. P5000 or GP5000 or something like that. I'll keep looking.
 
Keep in mind the fuel pressure at the rail has to be 45psi. The stock assembly has a regulator that dumps back in the tank.

Good luck in advance but I think you're in for many headaches with this project.

Every attempt I've seen at it requires a small aux tank for the fuel pump to be mounted into. So now you have an extra vulnerable tank, more connections to go south and even a more ugly setup than a Safari, less capacity, fuel weight sitting higher and no bonus of radiator protection.

So Safari or go home IMO.

We should encourage SWM to make a larger OEM tank option for the 650 that also fits older 630 (610?) bikes. The 650 does not compete technically with the 690 - SWM should compete on price and options.
 
like husky ktm rely on safari and other aftermarket tank makers ... Ktm have more quality options like rally raid but i would think there has been 5 - 10x more 690's produced ..
You never know if swm get a descent of number of bikes sold hopefully aftermarket accessories will grow and continue .
