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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My bike has a low rpm rattle which i believe is comming from the timing chain. I notice it more when lugging a gear to high or going very slow. I the valves are with in spec. I pulled the cam chain tensioner and i found it to be at the third click in. Which i believe is suposed to be ok. So then i put back togethor after moving some clamps because 1 was touching an exhaust spring. Took for a ride same noise. Then i removed the tensioner again and advanced the plunger to 5 clicks and the noise seemed to improve alot. So my question is why isnt it pushing out the plunger enough. The tensioner moves freely and the teeth are not worn. The spring seems fibe its not bent or anything.i might advance it 1 more click. Is this a common problem? Is there an aftermarket tensiiner for this. How many clicks tell you that the chain is streched? Thannks for any help youguys can offer
