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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Neutral point Husqvarna TE250 2010

Hi everybody

From what I've read in other forums, engaging neutral point in a Husqvarna TE 250 2010 when stopped is a pain in a##, a very known issue.
Even with my boots off, going either from 1st or 2nd gear to neutral point is very hard to find, I hardly feel the jump to engage the neutral point.
Well, when doing enduro trails falling down is pretty common (at least for me) and I get pissed off trying to put the bike running (electric start) because I can't find easily the neutral point.

Clutch oil is ok, although the clutch lever picks very up, what should I do to solve this issue ?
 
It would seem most dirt bikes have trouble with finding neutral.

I have 4 methods to find neutral.
1. Stop the engine. Easy to find neutral.
2. Whilst decelerating to a stop select neutral by applying light pressure to the shifter coming out of second gear on the way to first.
3. If stopped and the engine is running, give the engine a rev and as it transitions from driving to dragging, apply slight pressure to the shifter and you will get neutral when the clutch is briefly unloaded.
4. Go up a nasty goat track and shift from 2nd to 1st when your life depends on it - finds neutral all the time!
 
Look at the good side, no false neutrals while riding.

:cheers:


I have some false neutrals between 5th and 6th gear. :excuseme:

Thanks for the tips :busted: , 1st and 2nd known, 3rd will give it a try and the 4th, only once happened and failed completely.:banghead:
I only have ridden the bike for a hand of times... Just have to get use to it. :oldman:
