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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rear brake light staying on TE511 help!

For some reason when I start the bike up the brake light stays on and won't turn off unless I kill the engine. I tried unplugging the line to the front brake, then the back brake and it still stays on with both lines un-plugged.....can anyone help?

No real good when it comes to electrics on bikes...
 
So it turns out there was a little plug just near the front brake master cylinder that was un plugged, plugged it back in and it's a goer again, thanks for your help : )

That little micro switch on the front brake has a design flaw IMO. I have had two break now and the "default" position is "brake on"...which is stupid. There is a little condom protecting the switch and it seems to get blown out do to lateral movement. I had to jump mine closed and just live with the back brake lever. When it warms up a bit in my garage, I will wire in a banjo solution. I don't know why they didn't use a banjo up front...the micro switch reeks of Chinese quad engineering...
 
What a wonderful forum this is,I am using bike in Central brazil,don't speak the lingo,even if I did the bike was bought 1250 km away,no husky dealers any where(brought some oil filters with me from uk)and I have the brake lights stuck on,chase the wiring from the back brake,find it pinched behind the fuel tank mount,release it cable un damaged ,still no worky,so straight to cafe husky,and there was the answer,many thanks
