• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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'm getting ready to send my suspension out for a revalve on my 2011 txc 250. I primarily ride woods and race hare scrambles. Any suggestions on who to send it to and experiences from people who have had there's done. Haven't been on a husky since 04 and am out of the loop a little. Thanks in advance....... Sorry for the title being spelled wrong, can't figure out how to edit the title.
 
Even if it takes more time, I suggest you to do most of the revalving yourself. Even if I most of my own experience is Ohlins in snowmobiles I did like this for my -011 TE 310.
  1. Ordered a harder rear spring from Racetech (I weigh 85 kg). The front springs was okay according to them.
  2. Also ordered the Gold valve kit to the forks.
  3. Last, get the tools for your shock and forks.
  4. Make your own Word/Excel document where you wright down all facts and adjustments. One A4 for each test (every change).
When you have all this everything will at the end give you a much better understanding for your suspension. Just read the basics and use the information and tips you can find online. Any suspension guru can make your bike almost perfect but just on one track. If you go between trailriding, motocross, sand, dirt etc, they will just make it work perfect on one of those surfaces. This might not be the answer you wanted, but if you want it perfect there are no shortcuts.:thumbsup:

I just got the suspension for my '11 TE 449 back from Factory Connection. They re-valved for woods, sprung the suspension for my weight, and shortened the shock, all for less than $700. The bike feels great now, soaks up the stuff that used to knock me off my line. I think the price would have been higher if my suspension was not brand new.
 
Little late but East Coast Suspension out of PA did my TE310. Great guy to work with and had my suspension just about perfect when I bolted them back on. Two-three clicks later and perfect.
 
check out works enduro riders and have drew smith do your suspension for you. he did mine some weeks ago and he did a great job. well worth the money and was the best modification i have done to any bike.
 
+1 on WER I sent mine to them the begining of this year and am very pleased with the results .:thumbsup:
