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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SM 630 Radiator

So, my new radiator is "On truck for delivery."
My normal UPS delivery time is ~11am.
UPS doesn't deliver after 7pm.
It's 6:40 right now.

This is the calm before the storm...
 
I feel really lucky to have got as many miles out of my radiator as i have, seeing how everyone is having so many problems with there stock ones too. Does anyone know if there is an other model thats is compatible with my sms 630 ? Like a 610 maybe ? I would just buy an other stock one but the dealer quoted me 195 just for one side and i would rather spend that money on something that wasn't gonna break on me agian for no reason .
 
The TC/TCX 250 radiators are almost identical but a bit thicker. You have to tweak a hose and the fan bracket a bit, but they fit, and there are tons of aftermarket 250 radiators for 1/4 the price of the Alexons for the 630.

I bought a set and checked the fitment while I had the motor out, but I haven't swapped them on. I'll wait until I spring another leak.
 
Thanks for the info man, i checked ebay and they are cheap, 85 bucks for the pair and i found a pretty nice bracket too, do u know if that would work or not ?
 
Unfortunately,I had toorder a newleftradiator,do not understandwhy, but there'sacrack, a motorcycledrove17690km.

I'll tell you why, because the people at Alexon don't know how to make radiators...

true, mine cracked after only 5000km...and apparently husky has less than perfect aftersales service too...out here at least.
claimed warranty for my right side rad and it still ain't here after 4 months...
 
Well you've got bad timing, the warranty service on the older bikes has been almost nonexistent. You can still order parts though.
If I were you, I'd be tempted to go the alternate route and pick up some aftermarket radiators.

New radiators (GPI from ebay) to replace my original ones that were bent as a banana. The GPI aren't the best quality (reflects their $120 price tag) but they have some decent longevity reports I've read here.
For who is wondering the 2010/2011 te250 radiators were the ones i bought that were the same as the 630

Oldies


New radiators


Also got some radiator braces and guards from 7602 and an oil filter cover, all really good quality parts.

New Gear


In the last shot you can also see some 510 pegs i got from a mate and painted black - they are much better than the 630 pegs, and a straight swap over (need the 510 springs)​

yea I was thinking of heading into the ebay aluminum rads like you did...we'll see how this goes in a month or so. Not in position to spend money on the bike is all :banghead:

so far, epoxy plastic steel on the crack is doing wonders. I hope it'll outlive the slow delivery...seems like they're walking from Italy to Indonesia :mad:
 
Are the 511 and 630 radiators same size? Was looking at 7602 radiator bracket and guard and and they dont make one specifically for 630 but have them for 511. Can anyone assist? Thank you
 
I read a thread some where about the tc/tcx 250 radiators. My 630 is new to me and the left was replaced and the bike came with the new right in a box of parts. The right has a different lower connector. It is bent upward instead of straight. I am not sure these are 250 radiators, just told that they were. I like that they are a little bigger and the material seems thicker. I will figure out how to install it as my right looks like it has jb weld on it.
 
So come to find out I need a new radiator. I'm going to replace both sides, what brand AMD what do you guys recommend? I also want to get the brace and guard for it this time as well. Can anyone give me insight please? Thanks
 
Has anyone purchased or used Motoxotica radiators and guards? They are a little more expensive id be in the $500 range for both radiators and guards. But am trying to find out if its worth the extra money? Please help me out
 
So what your saying is im getting stock Husky parts from them? and ppl on here are saying not to get husky because they obviously dont hold up and ppl where getting the china ones.
