• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 610 Rear Wheel

Put you back into it;) I don't carry a torque wrench on the trail and I don't think I've every over done it and I've never had a wheel come off either. I'll check the manual tomorrow and let you know. If you use the short wrench in the tool kit it would be hard to over do it
 
Drive chain adjustment
Carry out the cleaning operations as described in the “Periodical maintenance
card”. Check the chain tension adjusting and lubricate it, if necessary.
The chain is adjusted correctly when the motorcycle is in vertical position and
unloaded, as shown on figure. If not, adjust the chain as follows:
- loosen the nut (1) of the wheel axle;
- loosen the nuts (2) on both sides of the chain-adjusters then operate the
adjusting screws (3) till the correct tension is restored (make sure that both
the chain streighteners are aligned on the same notch);
- tighten the nuts (2) (22,5 Nm/ 2,3 Kgm/ 16.6 lb-ft);
- tighten nut (1) of the wheel axle (142 Nm/ 14,5 Kgm/ 104.8 lb-ft);
- check again the chain tension.

From 2002-2007 manual

Check chain slack 12mm 0.47in from center of lower chain to swing arm.
