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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

O2 sensor eliminator

Normal if you've done the power up, just idle it back down. The idle screw is behind the black cover on the right side of the throttle body.

It's a little tight to get to, but should be fairly obvious what you need to do once you find it.
 
I'm going to ask dumb question on this topic. My bike just turned up this evening and it already has a plug in place of the O2 sensor (yay!), and I was looking to check that it also had the correct electrical plug (ala, resistor) from the power up kit, but I couldn't find anything that looked like the plug that is shown in all these pictures (i.e. no wires coming out the other end, a dead-end plug if you will).

Where does the Power Up connector actually connect into the loom?

I would guess it's in that bundle of wires that is tied to the left side of the frame under the tank, but I couldn't seem to see it there (mind you, all panels and the tank were still in place, it was a pretty casual look over!).....
 
Yeah, it's up in there. If it's tied up, you won't see it without pulling the tank.

I had to pull the tank to get to it. Power Up + JD Tuner really perked up the motor. Mileage down to the 45-46 range, but I can live with that given the improved fueling and overall throttle response.

Do you think the JD Tuner might work better in closed loop (O2 sensor in place)? I am seriously considering getting a JD Tuner. Have the PU kit now.
 
I tried that for awhile. Mid to top end improved but had off idle leanness and quite a bit of decel pop. I think the tuner and ECU are fighting each other with the closed loop. However, MPG was 50+ in that setup.

That's great feedback. I'll give up gas mileage for better off idle response.
 
Found the resistor I was chasing after taking the tank off:


Way further forward than where I was looking for it (I was looking for it somewhere behind the cylinder head, instead it was right up on top of the radiator).
