  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 have a 2012 tc449 that was just rebuilt.after breaking it in for about 30 minutes it started to have a weird popping sound and now it will not idle unless the choke is on really high and sometimes now when I attempt to start the bike the starter will hesitate for about 5 seconds then it starts.and I have tried the tps reset and it does nothing.also every ground and wire on the bike is fine?
 
Yes ote="Huskynoobee, post: 335013, member: 7392"]Check the relays? Intake boot secure?[/quote]
Yes everything is secure
 
It sounds like the timing might be off a tooth- when you say the starter hesitates, does it seem to struggle before it spins or there is just a delay before it starts cranking. I'd do a compression test next. Hope you figure it out

It just has a slight delay.also the timing and compression is perfect
 
If it is turning over with correct voltage, timing is proper, with a nice blue spark, compression is spec,
Only fuel can be the problem. Fuel pump, or something in the circuit.

Its like it only does it warm.
 
As it is cheap maybe just replace it. Seems these fail quite a bit and cause the issues you describe.

Tinken, how does he test this? there must be a simple resistance check for it no?
 
I find that it is helpful to know when the fan is being turned on by a correctly functioning temp sensor, I point my infrared thermometer at the brass coupling at the temp sensor site and the sensor I have now turns the fan on at 215F. I check to make sure that this is working before I go out on each ride, because if it's not working, I know that I will overheat.
