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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Range is only about 75 miles (give or take). Anybody know if Acerbis will make a larger tank option? I hear they make the stock tank. Heard horror stories regarding the IMS option. RV Aqualine doesn't have one (yet) and don't know when they will.

Help!:excuseme:
 
Maybe on pavement that will be your range, but in the dirt I would expect closer to 55-60 miles. I have had problems with my IMS tank also, but it has been worth it having the extra range. I will look at the Aqualine tanks when they come out, but for now, I am glad I can go 90 miles in the dirt. Ken

Maybe the 1 % of people that have had problems with their IMS tank aren't happy but there is still 99% of us that are.

An I'm one of them.:thumbsup:
 
My first IMS tank on my '05 TE510 sprung a leak on an underside seam. From what I was told, some of the early batches of white tank had problems, but w/newer tanks that was fixed.

I got the replacement tank, it was heavier build and I have had zero problems with it.
(1st tank was summer 2007, replacement tank was late fall 2007)

FYI: my 510 can get 45-47mpg on dual-sport type riding, and 32-35mpg on trail rides, but can and have dropped it to 25mpg when pushing it hard.
From what I've read lately, doesn't appear to be much difference between carb bike and EFI in mileage.
