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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1995 Husky WXE 610 clutch slipping

So I picked up a WXE 610 supermoto, love the bike running good, but its slipping in the higher gears underload, that thells me the clutch is going. But the Husky Dealer is telling me that I need to crack the side case off it and readjust the pivoting arm... Personally that sounds like BS to me, bike is a 1995 and hasnt had a clutch since 2000 the Previous Owner said. So I think its due.

I have never owned a bike where you have to "adjust" the pivoting arm while the clutch wears down.....


is this true?
 
I believe someone (UpTite) has a pressure plate mod for high RPM high load clutch slipping on 610s. ( I really don't know for sure but think it's about drilling some oil relief holes to evacuate the oil from inside the clutch pack, I've seen this done on other machines with good effect)
