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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rekluse Core EXP 2.0 for TE 250

Has anyone tried the Rekluse Core EXP 2.0 yet? and if so how was it, any feed back would be appreciated. Maybe looking to get one.
 
I have heard good things from a friend, says it works great, have not tried it. If you want one Email me and I'll make you a great deal. :thumbsup:
 
Depends on what type of riding you do, I have made a woods bike out of my TC250 and the rekluse has transformed it into a docile rock crawler. I love it.

Thanks guys, question for you water racer. How do you have it set-up? I ride very technical terrain and I get alot of pop stalls. Did the Rekluse help for pop stalls also this bike will not climb technical hills in second gear because of lack of low end power, if I do not keep it highly rev the bike wants to stall out.

I still get an occasional pop and die on a hill climb even with the Rekluse. IMO the Core is a bit more sensitive to being in the right gear than the Pro. My husband's TXC 450 has the Pro and you can almost go up a first gear hill in 4th and the clutch will whine its way through it without stalling (not that I would recommend that). Also, the Core seems to be a bit more prone to flameout when hitting an obstacle wrong (like a rock). That being said, though, it is a lot harder to get those flameouts than without the Core (I usually have to be doing something bonehead like climb a first gear hill in third because I'm not paying attention) so I think its well worth it. I didn't think the bike was that hard to ride in technical stuff without the Core, but it adds that little security blanket when you goof up.
 
Well, you would need to see what I ride it's very technical, lots of rock gardens, steep hills with plenty of rocks. I brought the wrong bike for the wrong job. Rekluse doesn't make the z start pro for the te250 just the core. I had the z start pro on my ktm xcw250 but I sold it. I needed a bike that iI could get title legally, thats why I brought the te250, the 310 was a little out of my reach. But if the Rekluse doesn't help I might take a lost and trade the 250 in for the te310.
 
I used the standard settings from rekluse and it never stalls. Could be the difference in the TC and being well carbureted. I rode some very technical trails today rock gardens, wet leaves on rocks, mud, and all the above on steep hills. Bike worked great and I was able to pass a lot of orange bikes going up hills. I would have had a miserable day without the rekluse. There are some adjustments you can make to make it engage at a higher rpm, but something tells me there is some magic to be worked in the EFI.
I am running 13-52 gearing and seems to be good.

water racer, you are running a 13-52 I'm running 12-50 and if I do not have a clear run at a hill, 2nd gear will start to boog down unless you keep it highly rev, but then you are all over the place. Maybe I should try going back to 13-50 because I could climb hills in first gear I wouldn't need to keep it so highly rev?

Are you using the clutch any during these stalls or just the throttle?
 
I am not sure of the power differences between a TE and TC, but even before the auto clutch had plenty of power to climb hills even without using the clutch, and we know what hills are in east TN. Auto clutch helps mostly in slow rock garden of other slow or tight areas to keep from stalling because I don't have the luxury of e-start.
I am thinking you may need to work on the tuning of your engine, there are whole threads and topics on this forum dealing just with the tuning of the EFI.
