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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I was running a Hard 100 mile enduro this past weekend on my 09 310. Today I noticed oil in the air box and ontop of the swing arm. Is this just from droping the bike on the right side. And if it just the valve cover breather doing this than is there a fix or just leave in and stop crashind.

Also for those who do enduros can you roll mlies forward on the Husky trip part of the computer? Does not make sense not to be able to.

Anyway the bike is tough I put it threw everything this weekend and it just kept going. Even is stupid tight sections the bike never overheated. I did have aproblem with the key turning off once on me and the red ignition button somehow getting pressed in while riding shutting the bike off both times. I have to come up with a fix for that.

lastlap, yeah the oil leaking out of your airbox is the result of crashing on the right side. Nothing to worry about.
 
My TE450 does that. I hate it. There is a little recess that the oil pools up in, in the air box. I think I will try to use a different vent hose and reroute it somehow so that the oil can't get into the airbox so easily and quickly. The bike fell on it's right side once on a hillside so that the wheels were higher than the rest of the machine. It was very hard to upright and by the time I had it righted it had lost close to a pint of motor oil and was really hard to start and smoked for about five minutes before clearing out. Made a mess all over everything, too.:thumbsdown:
 
In addition to the motor oil that might be getting in there, compare the color of the oil on the swing arm/in air box to the color of the air filter oil - my bike had an over oiled air filter.
