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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st Power for replacement dash

I smashed the dash on my 13 WR 300 ages ago and have just got around to buying a trail tech replacement.
Trail Tech seems to plug straight into the sender wire from the wheel but Im not sure which wire will give power from the stator.
Theres a few wires there, are they all carrying the same power (apart from earth which I assume is there also) and so any of them will do if its carrying current?
Also cant find a wiring diagram which has the correct colours for my 2012 built Aussie WR, the one up to 2011 isnt correct
can anyone point me in the right direction please
 
Is there a stock plug on that yellow wire that'll work with the trail tech unit?

Just put a trail tech endurance II on my WR300. I've just been using battery power only as I assumed there wasn't something to use stock and I didn't wanna cut into the stock harness.

Nah no plug from memory there's just a spare power(yellow) wire under tank coming out of coil/ignition. Same on my 10 wr300 & 13 wr165. Think it's a female bullet type connection so I just got the equivalent male & crimped onto red wire of speedo then earthed at coil earth/mount on frame. Both mine endurance 2 no probs at all bar a flat battery after a couple of years.
Actually the one on my 300 has stopped picking up signal(everything else still works) & it's not cable as tried a few. Can't complain I guess after 120+ hours(4500km) on it. Not worth fixing I don't think & too exy to post back to trailtech to get inspected. Second one that has done it must be internal pick up sensor failing. For $130 can buy an entire new set up so not too bad. I never cover them whilst washing either
 
Thanks man. I had such fun wrestling the IMS tank on there, I'll likely wait until I have to pull the tank for another reason before venturing to hook the endurance II to yellow power wire. For now, I'll just use the 'ol battery power.

I've only had mine on the WR for a month or two now, but I don't give it any protection from the wet. It poured rain on us several days during a big ride a couple of weekends ago and I pressure washed the bike when I got home. So far, all that water hasn't hurt the thing. LOL

How do you guys mount the Trailtech units? My stock unit on the 2010 wr250 is getting flakey. Been thinkin about installing a trailtech
 
If ya got the oem plastic mount that bolts into triples it's a direct swap. Otherwise use the plastic mount that comes with it. Bit flimsy but mine has never failed
