  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 410 cylinder information

Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and new to huskys.
I've purchased a bike which had starting problems and the previous owner took it upon himself to remove the head and cylinder.
On closer inspection the cylinder looks 'shiny' with vertical marks. (See pictuures) I've felt around and there seems to be no roughness.
My question is would I need to resleeve the cylinder or would this be cured by a decent honing before I fit a new piston and rings.
Any information about this engine and bike will be much appriciated.

Thanks

Shaun

If you can feel the ridges with finger nail. Have it replated .If the piston has scratches in it on the front and rear skirts as if you took a razor blade to it. This indicates the rod is starting to go away the hard casing on the pin is starting to move or the hard casing on the inside of the rod is starting to come off also. If so replace rod and Main bearings new piston and replate cyl. Do valves also.

Hey George,

Yes the piston looks terrible on the skirts. Looks like a engine overhaul for me :/ the conrod doesn't look bad, I'll try and get some pictures up tomorrow.

Thanks

con rod won't look bad, have to press crank apart then have a look especially if in early stages.
