• 4 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     TE = 4st Enduro & TC = 4st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

is there a difference in cranking power on a starter from a 250 vs a 450. wondering if they just installed the same starter on all the bikes...... this would b for a 2010 450 i have a 250 starter available....
 
The starter on my '11 TE310 sucks! :cry: Battery is fine so I kick it. It'd be nice to have the e-start reliable again.

The xlites have a different starter... and it's definitely underwhelming.

Ensure your exhaust valves are at the tight end of the spec (especially the left one). And the spec is a little loose IMO.

Does that serve to 'tighten up' the response? Seems like I might need a new starter at this point, but I'm severely deficient in electrical knowledge. It doesn't seem to like to turn over much at all. Are people replacing them on these bikes after 200/300hrs?
 
My 2011 TE310 has 272 hours (9475 kms) maybe a few extra due to hour meter stopping at 99h at each roll over. still has original starter,

your stock speedo hour meter is functional? (first one that I know of) Or do you have an aftermarket?

my '14 TE310R has 8000 miles and guestimating 375 hours. Stock starter is fine, but husky had updated the ring gear and worm by the end of the '13 model year.

My '12 TE310 hour meter works fine. Just wish someone had told me a couple of years ago they only go up too 99hr and then you need to reset them. Only bonus about needing reading glasses is when you reset the wrong display but it's a good thing.

hunh.

Anybody have a stock speedo that did NOT have a working hour meter? (xlite or 449/511, maybe earlier). if so, is the display set for MPH or KPH? any other weirdness noted?

sounds like the working ones stop at 99hrs and don't roll over maybe- both of which would be weird. My now gone stock speedo's odometer would not measure mileage when coasting with the engine off; also it had no internal battery (but it did have a space for one- no connections). One last weirdness: the speedo on my 2014 TE was manufactured in 2010.
