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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

EFM auto clutch

yes on both 2 stroke and 4 stroke.

Great product and great support if ever needed. Tell them Joe Chod sent you
 
With the txc do I keep my lever, or do I care? I am thing about a left hand brake. I have been riding for several years and it just feels weird when I rode russ Henry's bike. I did like the control it had ,but I grabbed a handful of brake when I went for the clutch.

I hear you get used to that. A few trips over the bars may speed up the learning!
 
If you only ride one bike it will be much easier to make the change. Not so many abrupt reminders...
 
Just mailed out my clutch, will get there around Wednesday. The clutch is very unconventional . How does it work?
 
I have one in my 2011 449. After i got the shimming distance correct it worked flawlessly. And you dont/cant have a hand cutch anymore. Worth the money!!
 
I found that the bike wanted to jerk forward when in gear. The auto clutch was already partially engaged .My dealer had installed it direct with no spacing between the plates and auto mech. Where the new mechanism is mounted ,you can add shims ( basically thin SS washers) to move the autoclutch away from the clutch plates. So it isnt partially engaged.The thing with auto clutchs is that you have to play with them a bit to get that personal feel (engagement timing etc). I love mine. Ride tight single track in 2nd gear without clutching or worrying about stalling .Worth every penny.

Why can't you have a clutch lever? They state on the website that they recommend you keep your manual lever.

Any idea on a price mag?
 
EFM is nice because you can use the clutch, which I need on a 125/144/165. I just rode a KTM 200 with old style Rekluse (Not EXP) and I can see why you throw the clutch lever away... no feel or modulation. It was like riding an old Husky Auto. Friend has EMF with clutch lever and mountain bike rear brake lever on the bars, nice set up.

Were did you shim it by the crank, or by the throw bearing were you would with a revlock?

Shims are between the clutch hub and the clutch basket.
Clutch unit connected to the basket.
more shims between the basket and hub moves the plate stack closer and engages sooner. lees to none has opposite effect.

Also the abilty to tune the unit itself with auto clutch tension washers that act as springs to control how soon/later it engages as the rpms climb.

You can still use clutch on all but a hydraulic must NEVER be squeezed with bike not running as a juice clutch is stong enough to press on stuff wityh alot of force and bust stuff when the whole clutch is "relaxed"

Can you adjust the disengagement speed so it free wheels ?
