  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 2009 te 250 with 310 upgrade , the bike has given me trouble for 18 months
And of that 18 months it has been at my local garage and also a main dealer in Belfast
First the fuel pump was changed and cost a total of 400e including labour it ran for 20km then while at 70 km went into same out of fuel / starved of fuel for about I km kicking and splut u know the score ! Took fuel tank off fiddled around started got home , next day went in trails started ran about 10 min then same starved fuel scenario died took off tank etc but wouldn't start , plugged out temp sensor and no joy , next day started touch throttle and it wil die instantly , let it an hour or 2 start let it run and touch throttle and it dies , back to dealer and six months later no joy , asked for sensors changed they comply still no joy , have bike shipped to Belfast nearest dealer , 3 months later bike is back will run but touch throttle and will die , facing a large bill for man hours parts and bike still won't run am fairly sick of it , bought a Honda xr650r I know it's a tank and over kill but I can't bare it no more , kick start and carb and road legal !!! Now my local garage want to convert to carbs should I let them do it ??? Yours truly a husky hater

Check the fuel filter inside the tank. They crack at seem and can be replaced with a metal one. If you take the pump out and squeeze on the side of the filter you should be able to see it cracked at the seem. Fixed the one that I had and it acted just like that. Sorry to hear all the trouble.
 
Rubbed raw wires can appear as fuel stravation since the fuel delivery depends on electricity, check for bare wires under the tank that are connected to the fuel pump, the fuel pump relay,and the fuel injector.

Will also check the wiring also thanks old husky rider , had a good look around the wiring before as I have worked on older bikes, but as with my gs it a little off putting when the electrics give bother and the main dealers are supposed to be the be all and end all , guess its time to roll up my sleeves and stop getting ripped off , thanks guys once again

Actually, yes. At least here that happened and that is how I got to work on it. With the bike hooked up to a fuel gauge it has to have (I forget the PSI but think to be 47psi min.) The one I had here was 35 which would seem like enough and some mechanics do not know this with working on carbs. I have a automotive fuel gauge with all the adapters so I can check fuel pressure. When you add the smaller 12 hole injector it is even harder for the pump to push the fuel through which needs more pressure. It's worth taking a look, I would not switch over to a carb. Normally if you put the pump on the bench the fuel will evaporate around the filter and then if you move it around you will see a wet spot at the center seem. Also just squeeze it a little and the crack will open if that is the problem.
