  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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-511 Vibration

goodquest

Husqvarna
AA Class
I purchased a 2013 TE-511 in 2013 and due to family issues never really rode it other than around the block every two weeks, so It currently has about 200 miles on it. Well the family issues have resolved and I took the Husky out for a ride. I noticed any faster than about 40-45 MPH the bike would vibrate like crazy and at 60 MPH the vibration was so bad it makes the bike unrideable. Any ideas on what to check and how to correct this issue?
 
Does the vibration go away if you pull in the clutch, or even kill the engine?
Does the vibration go away or get worse if you apply the brakes lightly or heavily?
Have you inspected the tyres for deformation or cracking - 7 years is pretty old anyway, so new rubber seems like a good idea.

Yes,
vibration is at 45 mph and above
Does the vibration go away or get worse if you apply the brakes lightly or heavily?
Yes, if I'm going over 45 and slow down. otherwise no effect.

Tires show no wear

Vibration go's away if I pull in the clutch or kill engine
Vibration go's away if I apply the brakes, because I'm slowing down (no effect on Vibration)
Tires are in good shape

This is an engine vibration
