  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 don't have a metric measure and can't seem to find one to check the slack in the chain , on youtube they use 3 fingers between chain and swingarm but it's on a yamaha , will that trick work with a 12 te 310 stalk chain and sprocket or does anyone know it in inches . Thanks
 
Use this... http://www.bing.com/search?q=inch mm conversion&src=IE-SearchBox&FORM=IESR02

Use your fingers if they meet the desired thickness. The prescribed spacing should be 35mm/1.377 inches measured at 5.75 inches behind the middle of the swingarm pivot. Measure resting something on the guard and between chain with bike on side stand. Take a tape measure and find something around the house to keep in your toolbox to do this. A socket may suffice or any object. I use an old roller from the bike. When you upgrade the chain slider consider the changes in height of the plastic of them and adjust accordingly. I have never once had to adjust my chains in 2500 miles using this spacing and method. Either the chains are now really good or the spacing noted above is spot on. I cringe when I read posts of chain care or lack of it.
