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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

When shifting from 1st to 2nd sometimes it doesn't seem to want to engage unless I let the rpm's drop off then at times it will engage then jump out into nuetral.I thout I read about this somewhere before but I can't find any info.The bike is a 08 wr250. Thanks for any help.

Pull the clutch cover and look at the shift drum center screw to see if is tight and also the pawls in the ratchet can get crud on them or pins and stick.Look for bent/broken springs etc.Also make sure the drive chain is not too tight.billf

Does this apply to an 07 TE510 that it is difficult to shift into 3rd? I notice it mostly on the road, but I am not sure I tried to shift into 3rd in the woods. Thanks, I just bought it used and the previous owner didn't have the problem.
