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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Mick's troublesome TE510

15 and 16T sprockets will fit. You have to rotate them so the teeth slide past the plastic chain guide. then the sprocket sits in a little cutout of the chain guide right up next to the swingarm. Dont have the 16 on at the moment but I can take pics of my bike with a 15T on if ya want.
 
All good buddy. Thanks though. I don't think I'll go to something that big in the front in the future, I don't do any road stuff (Have a speed triple for that :) ) still yet to test out this 12 (which I won't get to for a while) but I'll keep you up to date.
 
13/48 works well, single track and trailblasting.
12/48 will be very low, 1st will be redundant,

that gearing comp link is brilliant
 
Running 12/48 now. It's great on single track, but i'm keeping the old sprockets & chain for enduro.

Suspect it's got a lowering link in the rear. Sits pretty low at rest. I'll take a pic tomorrow.
 
12/48 has been great for the single track we've been doing for the last couple of months. The majority of rides I've been on have been enormous hillclimbs, i suspected 12 would be too low but it's turned out to be perfect for the trial-ish stuff. I'm going to change back to the larger front for a few upcoming beach rides. It's not had a whole lot of riding in the last few months but i'm trying to amend that now - had a great run yesterday which leads me to my current issue.

If you've read the first page, you'll know there was some speedo issues when I first got the bike which with some contact cleaner and cursing righted itself. Yesterday, after 40 mins of moderately rough 2-4th gear fire trails we pulled over to get a gate. When I went to hit the starter - Nothing. Hit the kill switch a few times with the same result. Kicked it over & started first time, but the dash gave a large block code (which unfortunately I can't remember) then was intermittent between different codes - all lights and LCD panels on - and nothing. It eventually was consistently dead. Continued to kick it over all day and had a good days riding regardless.

I also have a slow leaking crack coming from my overflow bottle, i'll pull that and plastic weld.

I'm about to pull some wiring and have a play. I wouldn't have thought the starter button would be dependant on the dash at all so I think I'm looking at wiring issues a little deeper. Anyone got any suggestions?
