    Hello

    I have just joined the forum............ Hello !!!

    Have just picked up a farily new TE510 x 2010 model ( bike only had 40 kms on it and only ridden once )
    took it our yesterday and had a blast...
    1 issue though that the engine mounting bolts kept coming loose and neede re tightening after 10kms in the bush.. in the end the nut fell off ( i think it was the incorrect bolt / run ???
    Obviosuly the bike needs to be run in and seems to running quote rough.. Is this normal ???
    about to do an oil change and go over the bike to make sure all is tight and right
    any other suggestions what to look for ???
    Like the linear power this bike puts down.. very nice

    Riding in victoria australia

    cheers for now

    Hey guys I'm new on here and pretty much new to dirt bikes other than cruising around open paddocks when I was a kid. I have always had road bikes though and currently have a '06 hayabusa. A month ago I decided to go and buy a te449 as where I live there are tracks everywhere and quite a few of my mates had dirt bikes. All I can say is I wish I'd got into it earlier! I had more fun in the first week than I've had in years on the busa. My skills are pretty ordinary at the moment but improving fairly quickly. I look forward to learning a bit about the bikes and tips on how to ride them properly. So take it easy on me if I ask stupid questions haha. Cheers

    Hello everyone! I'm Paul and I own AS Racing. I used to be Agent Smith on TT before I was banned for life...LOL.

    I hope to learn the idiosyncrasies of the Huskys, and have some fun along the way. I've got a ton of experience with the other brands, but my Husky experience is limited to rebuilding heads. This is my first foray into the internal workings of the Husky and I'm looking forward to it.

    Hi, My name is David and I live in Orange County. I just bought a 2012 TE310. This is my first husky and first dirtbike! These things are tall! Doesn't help that I'm 5'7"...I have an '07 GSXR750 racebike (CVMA #107), and an '04 BMW R1100S. Glad to find cafehusky! Not sure what to do with all the parts in the box I got with my new 310?? I searched the forums but didn't quite find it...I replaced the air filter plastic retainer, but not sure what to do with the rest of it. I'm leaving the stock gearing though I did get the 50 and a chain which maybe I'll change once I get used to it/break it in. I've ridden up Saddleback a couple of times and am loving the bike so far! I've got a lot to learn.

    Greetings. I've been lurking here for a few years. Just bought a new 12 CR144 and would like to participate. Better late than never, they say! The 8th Husky I've owned. Also have a 04 TC450, 04 TC250, and a 02 CR50J in the stable. Getting older and slower, race 40A mx, looking forward to flying the Husky flag again, and fogging the 450's with premix fumes!
