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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Will this muffler fit my bike?? Help

Hi all, just wondering whether the FMF PowerCore 4 made for the 2011 Husqvarna TE449 will slip on to my 2011 SMR449?
Some other people have told me it should in the internet, but I decided to ask this community to get a solid answer. Someone said this:
The 449/511 SMR/TE/TXC/TC platforms are essentially the same except some differences in suspension, brakes and engine internals/throttle body (TC). 2011 bikes are different to 2012+ bikes with slight differences in frame, suspension and wiring loom, but nothing that effects exhaust fit.
The FMF Powercore 4 is a straight swap out for the stock muffler, you'll need to be running at least map 2, preferably map 3 (called Full Titanium Akrapovic Map in Australia) to get the best performance as the bike will run lean. A dealer with a BMW era Husqvarna Service Tool (HST) can flash Map 3 for around $50/30 minutes work, Map 2 is as simple as plugging in the 'power up plug' under the seat. Here is a bike with one installed
There are alternatives to the FMF; Arrow, Akrapovic and Barrett all make a muffler or full system that will fit. I run an FMF Megabomb header and Factory 4.1 muffler with the secondary butterfly removed and fuelling corrected and it's a beast.
FMF haven't replied to my email and I called them up and the guy said he didn't know and I have to find out on my own...
Thanks.
 
Yes, it will work. Welcome to the Café. You won't be able to flash map 3 on your ECU. The unfortunate beauty of owning 2011. However, adding a PCV will wake it up.
