• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 recently got an 09 Te510,and have found that the owners manual is lacking in such basic infomation as torque values for motor,suspension,and frame, nuts and bolts.So the question I'm asking is where do you get the info from,DVD,CD,hard copy?And how much can you expect to pay for it? Thanks
 
I have an '08 so this may not apply, but I thought the '08 owner's manual was remarkably complete and did have torque values in it. (I just checked and it does, page 92 "tightening torques".)

But it sounds like you should get a service manual. $10 USD from Hall's Cycles on a CD. Give them a call.
 
Thanks I've looked through all the literature throughout the books and there are some scattered torque values,but even the frame torque values are not in there.Looks like a "cost cutting measure",to force the purchase of a shop cd,manual,ect.Thanks I'll purchase one from Toy Tech where I purchased the bike.This is the first time I've ever had to purchase a shop manual for such basic information

I agree, my 09 manual sucks!!! They even call a wrench a screwdriver in one section.

You have to use some common sense on some of the torque values in some of the manuals. Besides trying to find the english version among the other 5 languages I think some of the values are way off. For example the rear wheel axle fastening nut say's 104.8 ft.lbs. :thumbsdown:

I couldn't find anything about that in my manual for my 2008 SM 610 so I torqued the real axle nut to 75 foot pounds. What's it really supposed to be?
 
I called my dealer today and ordered a shop cd from him about 15 bucks.He couldn't believe that there weren't any torque tables in the back of the chapter like there have always been in the past.I assured him that I had been through every piece of literature that they had handed me,and there were a few listed,but not enough to even change the shock spring,pack the linkage bearings,remove the sub frame, ect.I told him they need to take a look at what they're giving out with the bikes,he pulled out 1 of the manuals when he got off the phone
