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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I just picked up a new 2012 TXC 310 yesterday. I realized on my ride back to Connecticut from Pennsylvania that the dealer did not give me a tool kit like a received when I purchased my 2004 TE 450. Was I supposed to get a tool kit with this bike? The front axle looks similar to the 04, which required special tools to remove.
 
IMG_0859.jpg I did not get any tool kit when I purchased my bike. Tools are a necessity in our sport and anything can happen. I've been using one of these for the last 5 years. The bag has everything you need to repair anything when we ride. Except the stock front axel bolt 12 mm hex. Thats a quick fix with all the aftermarket brands that make those.

My friends are thankful of everything I have ready to have them repair their bike. While I take pictures.

I know that feeling but then again they don't ride husky's and they do bring the inner tubes to the show (sort of trade off I guess)

Yep, my 84 IT 200 came with a nice tool kit, but my 2011 TE449 just came with a few odd bolts and screws in a bag with the thumb drive and quick start book.

I guess modern enduro bikes are foolproof or something and NEVER break. Pretty sure some bean counter came up with millions in savings by not including them.
 
I emptied the 630 tool kit into my tool box. There was nowhere to fit the kit under the saddle anyway. Suppose most people use their own kit nowadays. Think that tool kits coming with a new bike were a relic of the old days when screws etc weren´t standardised. Works tool kits are usually cheapo metal crap.
 
My Beta 350 RS came with a tool kit. Spark plug wrench, 10-13 open end, several hex, T-45, 10mm socket, small hand drive, reversible phillips/flat screw driver, multi-wrench and lineman style pliers...in a bag.

Wow, if they put torx T-45 on the bike they should give you the tool for that.
