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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My Te450 Bogs If I Give It A Quick Twist On The Throttle, From Idling.

Hi.
My TE450 ('07 EURO3) don't respond as quick as I want to, and sometimes bogs if I give it a quick twist on the throttle when it idles. When I start it, cold, with the electric starter, it sometimes backfires and it feels like it almost stops. Is my ignition "too early" maybe?

dirty air filter or rag in the intake?
vacuum leak? (or cracked manifold)
spark plug?
electrical issue in the secondary? (plug cap, moisture, plug wire)
electrical issue in the primary? (broken or lose wire, bad connection, bad coil)
compression leak? (valves, head or gasket if you're consuming coolant)
[inspect & clean carb for these next few:]
accelerator pump?
pilot jet?
float level low?
choke?
bad/old gas?

I doubt the timing has changed... but it could be a bad pick-up coil.

I know that I've thrown a lot of probabilities around, but it's a fairly non-specific issue.

one of our mods has an '07 TE450... maybe she has some advice.
post a video if you can.

let me know if there is too much idiomatic americanisms in there.

good luck.
 
Thanks!
I guess I'll have to start with the carb, and pick it down, and clean and look it over. I've just totally rebuildt the engine, but the respond was like that before I did that too. When I rebuilded it, I had to replace the rubber intake. The original one, has a hose-connection on it, for a hose to a solenoid(?)-sensor or something. I could'nt find that part new, so I had to leave that uninstalled. But I've read that this would not be a problem.
It's a lot of shit on these Euro3 bikes. I know it can be removed by a race harness or something like that, but I like the key ignition, and the fan.
 
This sounds similar to my issues. And my recent post. 2010 TE250 Engine won't stay running.

Most of the time the problem has turned out to be a cracked intake between the carb and the engine on these models. My 07 has never experienced that problem, although it has had "competition" jetting and carb mods installed from the git-go. Here in California, the bike had to be delivered with severely lean jetting, a throttle limiter (actually kept the slide from going up all the way), and a little ball in the accelerator pump which defeated its function. The little fitting on the intake boot was connected via hose to one of two smog cans. Talk about an awful bike. Luckily, I never even started up the machine in its stock showroom configuration.
 
2010 TE450, I went thru 3-4 intake boots...
