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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hey ya'll! New 2021 TE300i. Where can I find a shop manual? So far, the dealers I've checked with say,"Duh." Even Husky customer service Mr. Christian @KTM no help.
I want to service steering bearings, rear shock/swingarm pivots.
In my experience they're always short on grease.
 
Despite almost 50 years of working on dirt bikes, I had two surprises when greasing my 2018 TE150:
  1. loose needles in swingarm and linkage bearings. All previous bikes had captive needle bearings. Knowing in advance might have saved time crawling garage floor with flashlight and magnet
  2. no steering stem nut. Every previous motorcycle I have owned or worked on since 1968 Yamaha 80 has had a ring nut on steering stem. Discovered the difference when I removed the top steering stem bolt (after loosening top triple clamp bolts) and forks with bottom clamp fell towards floor. Fortunately, they only fell a couple of inches. For this job, I remove the front wheel and put a milk crate under fork legs

Yeah, and I am NOT mr. master mech. I need my shop "bible" :)
 
The service DVD isn't available yet for your bike, when it comes available it'll be around $25. Your local dealer can easily order one for you.
