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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

New 2013 txc 310 r owner with couple of questions

Just picked up a 2013 txc 310 r from a PA dealer who is a relatively new husky dealer and doesn't know much about the bike. Couple quick questions:

1. What are the 2 connectors not connected to anything behind the number plate for?
2. The manual states to not try and start the bike without a battery. How about with a dead battery though - is it ok to kick start the bike with a dead battery?
 
The larger connector is to connect to the Service Tool (Laptop). The smaller one is for the Dual Map Switch (Optional to swap from "wet" to "dry" map ).

In theory you can kick start with a flat battery, if the capacitor is charged. But in practice I have never tried.
 
You need a battery in circuit or you have the chance of frying the regulator and/or alternator.

Nothing new in that - it probably says the same thing in your car manual too.
