I have a 2009 TE250/310 w/about 1k miles. Just recently I've been having trouble with the bike starting. When I press the start button on the right, it still primes but won't kick over. After trying a couple times and rolling the bike I pressed it again and the tone of the primer went a little lower and it started right up. Then I got home and tried it again.. the pitch was a bit higher and it wouldn't start. It sounds like something in the fuel pump isn't engaging what it should or it's not filling up. Any advice??

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

I think you put another zip tie on the pump and that helped, right?

Have you ever taken the pump assembly out and inspected it? The "nest" they are in is less than best design. I ended up safety wiring mine so it stayed in the pump assembly as designed. If it moves up in the assembly some, it will not work correctly.
