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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

REV Limiter 2013 TE 449

First ride, first ride on a fuel inj. bike also. I was pleased with the power, but did notice the rev limiter seemed to limit my style of riding. Is it set for the break-in period. The bike has a JD tuner installed, thats it for mods. Is this bike smart enough to not limit the revs after bike is broken in??
 
There's a rev limiter at 10.5k or 11k rpm. As the power is so linear there's no 'hit' in power delivery unlike most other bikes. You'll adjust to riding it soon enough.
 
Hope that rev limit feeling isn't a lean condition. I would be careful.

By the way, it takes about 500 mi. for the motor to truly break in.
 
Your at the limiter on the first ride of a new engine?
I don't believe in all the magic breakin crap but hitting the limit makes me just a little uncomfortable until she's got some time under her.
Ive hit mine repeatedly and on purpose as part of Jimmys class, it just climbs right up smoothly then starts the mis-fire, recover sequence.
