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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Please Help With TE610E 2000 Cam Chain Tensioner

Hi, i hope someone can help with a problem i am faced with a cam chain tensioner issue.I have just had the engine rebuilt on my Te610e 2000 model.When the engine was first fired up i noticed the cam chain was rattling, so i went to adjust what seems to be a manual cct.First i undone the phillips screw and removed the little o ring oil seal, then when the engine was running gently adjusted the tension arm screw inside until the rattle stopped, but as soon as i took the screw driver out, the screw worked its way out of position again leaving the chain to rattle once more.Should there be a spring or something to lock this screw in place?, or am i just doing something wrong?.I have today removed the cct for inspection and when i tap gently on the tension arm it has no resistance and is for sure turning the screw out of place.I cant find any info on the web about this, but i did find a picture of the same tensioner here http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=518223
I would really appreciate any help offered, as i have been working on this bike since last August and this is stopping me from going on my first ride.
Thanks
ian
