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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE 250 to 310 Big Bore conversion impression

Looking for everyone's impression that has done a big bore kit on there 250. Please post your review and what you think. Tia
 
A couple of my friends did it and liked it a lot. One was a 2007 TC 250 and the other was a 2008 TXC 250 both had better power with the conversion.
 
Thanks Rancher!

I'm interested in knowing are there any down sides. Reason being one of buddies did a big bore on his 05 YZ250 WR a few years back and it did add more power pretty much everywhere but it did kill some of the top end over rev to the motor.

Then I was riding with a big group last weekend and one guy had a pretty new KTM 250 that he did a big bore and he did not like it. Said it took away the rev ability.

I'm looking to get more out of this little gem of a bike but don't want to screw it up if you know what I mean. That's what asking any members here that have done it what they think.
 
What year model is your bike?
The older big block engine could go from 250 - 310 easily with an athena kit. The newer x-lite engines was more complicated to change from 250 to 310. Many more parts.
 
I have ridden many times a 2006 TE250 belonging to a friend. I was a very nice bike and was just a tad underdone on the bottom end to mid range. Top end was very good.
As you can see I have 2 TE310's an 09 and a 10 both are mechanically sound and very robust as the bottom end is the same as the 250,450 and 510. The difference in bottom end to mid is very noticeable between a 310 and 250.
The increase in torque on difficult hill re-starts etc is very noticeable as is the ability to hold a higher gear longer. It would be a good investment.
