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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

11' TXC 250 Valve Adjust

Yeah in the same boat,mine is te250 2011. Are the shims the same ones that are used in the Hondas.
 
I think it was .008 exhaust and .006 intake.

Be VERRY careful on the torque on the cam caps.....they are tiny and they will strip right out....I go 42in/lb on the 5mm boths and 55in/lb on the 6mm bolts.
 
Is it true that if bike is hard to start when hot then the valves should be checked?is this good advice from my mate's.
 
I think that is a little tight all around.

Does the bike run and start okay?

Keep in mind the left exhaust valve needs to be a little tight to keep the auto-decompressor tang working. Overall I think that is a bit too tight.

I'd check it again when the bike is cold as those measurements seem a little puzzling in as much as they are all consistently .002" too tight.

You don't usually see that. Usually only one or max two valves are out.
