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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Urgent help required TC250 2010****************************************!!

I need help urgently, have 1st round of Western Australia Championship coming up in 24 hours, it is my son's first race in the Pro- Lites, Bike went to dealer to fit new piston, received bike back and when we took it for a spin we had problems , when in neutral the bike idles very well, when you twist the throttle engine response good, no problem, but when driving the engine breakes down under load, Checked the usual, fitted new plug, cleaned carby, all ok, what can be wrong?
Cant bring bike back to dealer as he is to far away, I called him and he doesnt know what the problem is either, can anyone help?
What does the sensor near the gear lever do? Can it be the automatic decompressor?
 
I'd bet they put one of the cams in out of time.....maybe one tooth out....or maybe the valve clearance is too tight.

On my '10 TE250 the cam gears have marks on them that point together at TDC. I have not seen the manual.

Take off the valve cover and look at the marks and check the valve lash.

The good news is this is still an easy job on the new bikes.

FYG, the cam caps get 6nm on the small bolts and 10nm on the larger ones.
 
Thanks very much for your reply, the timing was ok, in the end it was just one of these things, in desperation I decided to remove the sparkplug cap, fitted it back on and the problem disappeared.
Cant explain but it worked, we are now set for tomorrow.
 
Good to hear that things are ok.
I know the guys that fixed the bike and they are sound.
I hope that you guys have a win GO husky.
