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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi!
New to the forums and about to trade my Yamaha WR400F -98 for a TE610..

Don't know if I suck on searching, but its seems hard to find any info about these bikes.. :)

Just wondering about maintenance and if these bikes are solid?
How often to change oil and do the valve adjusting?
If I understand it right it's pretty simple to do the adjust?

Anything I should take a closer look at?

The TE610 looks pretty good for an 20 year old enduro bike..
The owner claims that he bought it from a guy who bought a package of bikes from a Husky collector..
So the bike haven't been ridden that much..

Also, it's street legal and my WR400F isn't, and I really need a street legal bike :)
I'll post some pictures on the bike..

He has all the lights to make it road legal again :)

So, what do you think? Should I do the trade?
 
looks awesome, those late eighties early nineties are the most beautiful bikes ever made in my opinion...the bad part is you will go from a common bike to an oddball that most people know nothing about. it is a very good bike that is super stable and has great broad power. thats a choice only you can make..

We have decided that we will meet up tomorrow, and it looks like I will be the next owner! :)

I have talked to a guy who owned 3 of these, and he says its no problem to get spares here in sweden :)
 
I think it's gonna be awesome!
Some work before it's legal and has been at inspection, hasn't been in traffic for 4 years or so.. :)
 
So.. now it's standing in the garage waiting for some stuffs I ordered..

Planning to do a full DC conversion and install a battery pack.. the old wiring is completely gone..
Would really need some help with the wiring, downloaded a manual online but the wiring diagram was useless..

There is coming two yellows and a blue (I think) that is loose.. when measured the AC there was nothing between the yellows, but I had about 100-110 volts between one of the yellow and the blue wire..
The old regulator has only one connection..
I have ordered a trailtech regulator/rectifier which have two yellows for the AC, I suppose that I'm wire one of the yellows from the stator to the TT rectifier, the blue from the stator to ground and the other yellow from the TT to ground..
Is that correct?

Or, are the two yellows supposed to wire to the TT, the blue to ground and ground the chassi of the TT?
 
The yellows are each 70 watt leads. I do not remember what the blue is.


Thanks.. :)
Has been chatting around with a guy who works at SEM, and he told me to wire the yellows in parallel, and the blue to ground :)
Have started to rebuild the electric system but still waiting for the polisport taillight and the "new" wheels I bought.. :)
 
So..
Having some issues here.. Hoping for a little more help..

When I connect the reg/rec the bike either dies if running and don't start if it's shutdown..
As soon I disconnect the reg/rec the bike always starts on the first kick..

What I'm doing wrong?
Is the stator broken?

Cheers
