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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Trail Tech Endurance II

I live to ride !
I just got one the other day. I really looks pretty good and was pretty easy to install. I just have to set the wheel diameter and I'll be ready to try it out. I'm hoping this thing works a lot better than the one that came with my bike. I wanted to get the one with the GPS in it but from what I read they are OK but not great. So this one should do the trick. Has anyone had any issues with this model ?
 
I had the endurance model on my KTM great little computer, yes wheel diameter is really key, and watch the cables they go bad easily,. trail tech is good about warrantying them.
 
I have the Vector- my stock computer died in 6 months from the showroom floor (water intrusion) in 2009.
I got the vector in 2010- last year one of the wires had gotten pulled (open circuit) I repaired. The wires are pretty delicate- watch routing- so that they wont be affected by the suspension travel or other issues.
 
I have an Endurance II on my WR and a Vapor on my 610.

Be careful about water. I had a Vapor die after getting wet (rain, no direct spray or anything).

Also, be really careful about stress-relieving all of the connections, but especially the speed sensor (because the other end moves). Mine was wired in a way that it would slightly flex at the connector, and the wires eventually fatigued and broke. Now I zip ty the connector and the wires on both sides so there is no load.

Oh, and mount it with vibration isolation. I was able to use the stock rubber mounts on both my bikes. My buddy mounted one rigidly to his HDB top clamp and it shook it to death.
 
had 2 & software problems on both. first one replaced under warranty, second one not as it had 2 small cracks in it from something(?) so maybe water ingression. copped that one sweet, though they did sell me one to replace it at cost. I found trailtech very good with warranty dealings/responses. the first series had known software issues they told me(resetting mid ride/freezing etc.) but haven't had any issues at all with second series one they sent me in many hours of riding. I do try cover it when washing but its a dirt bike & it still gets covered in mud/water regardless. waaaay better than POS oem unit. despite issues ive had I still recommend then & will use again myself. set tyre diameter at 2200 & forget-ive checked this tyre circumference against many many other bike/car speedos while riding & its very close:thumbsup:
