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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Replacement cam chain manufacturer models? 2008 sm610

Hi scoutdriver73, I used the timing mark on the gear that bolts on the CAM and the timing marks on the clutch primary gear and the one next to it and double checked with ye old long object in the spark hole. Seems to have worked very well. You just end up taking the right hand side cover off. Moved the engine with just the hands on the clutch or cam gear, but it's easier with the bike in 6th with the rear wheel.
 
I have to replace the cam chain on my '06, I notice that is not on your list but as far as I know they am the same engine.

I will be putting the chain on without splitting it, assuming that chain is right for my '06, will it also be the right length?
 
Just ordered a cam chain from Husky Sport here in England, figured I would post a picture of what I got:

Looks like they did move over to the SV. I searched the part number on eBay and they didn't have it in the right number of links, these chains are hard to get a hold of!
 
Turns out the chain pictured was 126 links long instead of 122.

They sent me the 122 link one which turns out to be the weaker sdh

Seems I just can't catch a break at all!
