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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE250 spag stuck to flywheel

Stalled bike in the woods and the sprag stuck to the flywheel...the starter was turning with the motor. Got too push it out.

I just removed the flywheel and that ring gear is stuck on there. Any tips to separating them?

The good news is the lapped flywheel I carefull torqued with 609 retaining compound did not twist an inch. The woodruff key looks fine. I'm happy about that. 2 yrs and no wear on the gears at all.

I wonder if the ring gear will be worn where it contacts the sprag...I have a new flywheel and a new sprag. I still have the original ring gear but it was replaced by the dealer in failed attempt to fix the e-start. Don't know if I should try it? Should I buy a new one?

Any ideas on separating the sprag?
