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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

anyone have any idea how many hours/miles these should last? thinking of picking up a 2014 with 1,100 miles on it and I am curious as a dual sport how it will last compared to a japanese dual sport.

Will mainly be an offroad bike, but want something that will last
 
Honestly I see no reason to believe it's not going to last compared to anything else. I have 3 years and 3k+ all dirt miles on mine. Only issues with fit/setup from the factory. Once sorted it has been reliable and a great bike. When I bought mine there was no Japanese bike that compared. As a race motor clearly it takes someone who is mindful of the 1 qt sump but otherwise it is not a high strung engine requiring high revs. A very balanced motor. Take good care of it and should last. I will keep adding miles till I feel it needs a rebuild. As it looks now that could be at 5k or 6k miles.
 
I've done 5,000 km on my 09 te250. Other than a valve check at 1,000 km its only needed oil and filter changes. Just doing the fork seals now. This bike owes me nothing. Bought it with 4 km on it from a broker who imports US over stock for 5,800$ canadian.

1100 miles is still brand new. They need fuel tuning and then they are really a great dual sport bike.
 
2009 3000kms/ 2010 4500 kms still in spec still running perfectly and not one mechanical-ever (both TE310's)
 
on my TE250, year 11, its a very reliable bike. It will last if you change oil frequently. I have 6500km on my bike and it runs better than new.
 
My 2011 TE 250 has been so far bulletproof. I only have 1500 miles on it but they are all hard off road miles. I change the oil and filter every 200-300 miles and I do the air filter every other oil change. It starts every time.
