I don't know what happened to my last reply, but to answer Coffee, I live on the Sunshine Coast (yes, that is the name, even in the Pacific Northwest), about 200 mi. north of Seattle. I happened to find an ATK dirt-track bike that I really really need, so I'll be trailering the bikes, not riding this time. I'll be back to do the PCH, however. Re: waterproofing, I always wrap my spare clothes in a plastic tie-wrapped bag, even when not crossing creeks.
Your 610 looks tough enough to eat any creek, congrats! How do you find the trails with the reduced clearance? The reason I ask is that the ATK flat-tracker I'm buying has about the same airspace below the cases, and I plan to use it as a lightweight ADV tourer.
You might be thinking of another thread on CH or even another forum, no posts of yours were deleted in this thread as far as I can tell. Maybe we could get together and meet when you come down.
Hi Barkbuster, I just bought an 1993 husky te610 that doesn't have spark. I was wondering if you have a wiring diagram with resistance values for the flywheel and coil? The bike has the original "sem" ignition, fyi. Also, if you have a good service manual for it, I would gladly pay you for a copy. Thanks so much!
The older 410-610 motor is less evolved...no E-start, no reed valve between the cam chain, no counterbalancer, and I believe only one oil pump. They are fast and light. I think in 2000 they got the counterbalancer but no E-start. I rode a 2000 Te410 that was really nice...kick only.
