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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE310 Power

I have just bought a 2014 TE310 and disappointed with the low down power as there is very little, it gets better when the revs get up but I prefer the power lower in the rev range.

Can anyone suggest how I could improve the low down power?
 
fully derestrict it*/open it up to TXC310R spec*/remap ECU to TXC310R spec*, perhaps even add a PC or FMF pipe and go.

*I did not make you do that, I only mentioned it.
 
Stock it is geared way too high. Go to a much larger rear sprocket. The stock gearing for a TXC is 13/50. I went to 13/47 and am happy with that. This is my preference as it allows me to run about 50mph comfortably on short stretches of pavement. Unfortunately, you will need a longer chain.

Also, like robertaccio stated, need to fully derestrict it. There is a ton of information on this forum to do this. I added an FMF Powercore4 and JD Tuner and got additional snap throughout the rev range. But it runs pretty darn good with the stock pipe.

Here is a thread that should help you.

Once you get it opened up, it will run much better.
 
250/310's are tight when being run in. Will feel better after a few hundred klms.
As mentioned above, make sure it is derestricted.
Derestricted with full power map and 13/50 gearing should be OK. Keep the DB killer in the end of the stock muffler.
If you want more bottom power, get a dealer to load Leo vince map (open pipe) and add a free flowing muffler. I have a 2010 tc250 muffler and it works.
Oh and... don't ride it like a wr450f.

Lets back up a smidge. Like mentioned already, what gearing are you running? Is the bike uncorked yet? What mods have you done? The 310 is not a big bore thumper, so you will need to wring its neck to make power. Once we figure out your current setup, we can help guide you towards a solution.
 
Easy as pie....

1) Replace air filter cage with "open" cage.
2) Remove cat from front of rear pipe.
3) Pull Velocity Stack and remove/cut away baffle.
3) Re-flash ECU to Open Leo Vince Map 3
Enjoy the engine :thumbsup:

Extras... gearing, Mobil1 0W-40 and Stainless filter. Gas tank spacers so tank clears radiator hose and fuel petcock doesn't sit on water pump. Spacers sold by Zip Ty or can stack 1/2" steel washers from a hardware store.

Since my new 310 has been in the shop since new, and I only put 12 miles on it before taking it in, I can't tell a lot, but a quick spin down the road told me that 50 mph with my 47 tooth rear is about "it". That's going to make keeping up with just about everyone I ride with a problem, at least until we get to the trail. A 50 tooth and maybe 55 on the road would be most excellent, but I wonder how much trail performance will be left. I don't race, and trails here are fairly open. My 310 is powered up. I may have to experiment a bit once I get it back with updated starter parts/gears.
 
During break in your bike will not go very fast. You need a good 10 hours on the engine before you can begin flogging it. With 13/48 I can hit 70 mph + 55 is easy to hold but these bikes are built for trails and don't do well on the street or at sustained high RPM's.
