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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Starting the 2010 TE 250 engine teardown

It looks as though somebody has lapped the tapered part of the crank and the internal taper of the flywheel together to get a perfect match on the angle. It's usually done with valves and a lapping compound (abrasive paste) to make sure two surfaces mate properly. It usually leaves a dull area where the microgrinding occurs. The taper on the crank has that appearance.

Ah, that is why it was so tight. They might have used retaining compund too.
 
Looks a little like a part of one of the cam chain tensioner halves. I'd look thoes over closely.
Were the ends connected to each other to make a cylinder at any time?

Also somebody on here mentioned about the old and new taper on flywheel or stator. I know they where updated but do not know when and what part numbers where changed...
 
Could that plastic be a piece of the timing chain slider? Looking at the workshop manual it seems to be two pieces bonded together.
May just be an illusion but I can't think of anything else in there that is "Plastc-like". I haven't had to open mine up so I'm just going by the pic.

I don't think the part numbers were changed....just the machining a little. The flywheels have the week and year of manufacture stamped on them.

Do you see how the flywheel in the pic does not contact the crank end about 6mm or so? That looks like the flywheel taper I took of my bike. It was made mid 2009

The later dated flywheels (Nov 2009) have a taper that contacts the crank all the way to the end.
