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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Sprocket Sizes Help Please 630 TE

Hi
Can anyone one recommend a sprocket size for my TE630 either front or back it is currently Standard which is a 42 at the back, most of my riding is of the more slower technical variety ,so it seems way over geared..the bike has the cats removed and a jd tuner..

Many Thanks David.........
 
I am using a 45 and it works everywhere I go but a 47?would be good for very tight and steep work. For true dual sport use I would stay with the 45.
 
Kind of depends on where you ride, really. I went 1 tooth down in the front and stayed standard in the back and I'm happy with it.
 
Yep, same as going up 3 on the back ratio-wise. I always like to run the largest CSS possible to help that sprocket and the chain last a little bit longer.
 
The mountains of British Columbia likes a 14/45,top highway speed here is only 60 MPH anyway.
 
For those of you using a 15/45 combo.. did you purchase a new chain also or will the stock chain fit?

Stock chain works. Actually since going to a 45 rear I've replaced the chain and stayed with stock number of links as I found it optimum even with the larger sprocket. Plus it will allow using a 14 in the front if I ever need to gear lower.

With the stock length chain, I go to 15/42 on supermotos (near the back end of the adjustment) and 14/45 on dirts (near the front end of adjustment).
 
I've been running a 15/42 with my sumo set up but was not able to fit a 15/45 with dirt trim and stock chain. 15/44 works in dirt trim with stock chain length but with a new tire you will still slightly scrape the rear shock mud guard.
 
I dropped one in the front (14) and went to a 46 [edit: typo] in the rear. It killed off a little of my highway but I feel like its much snappier and I never liked this bike on the highway to begin with so screw it.
 
I run 15 / 48. I run around the Bike around town and Dualsport ride. Some gnarly stuff once in while.

The stock was 15 / 45.
 
Changed stock gearing to 14/45 shortly after buying bike in 2011. Best setup for me. 1st is low enough for trail riding and 6th still gives a comfortable highway cruising speed. Can use stock chain and as for rumors of increased chain wear going from 15 to 14, I have not seen this. Put over 100 k miles on various bikes over the years with many different sprocket combos and see no appreciable wear until you go below 13 t.
