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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

just ordered my very first brand new bike and its a husky TE250 got her for 9995 with 2 year warrantee. all my other bikes have been pre loved. anyways they want $250 a service :banghead: im a man who has always done his own work since i was ten and cant stand other people touching my bikes or cars. anyways i have to have it serviced and its gona cost $250 on average just wondering what the valve shim clearances should be for her because il measure them all befor i take it in then supply them with my own oil own filters own loctite and the correct shims that way should save some costs and i can keep tabs on my bike.
cheers

Welcome to CafeHusky, sidquick! And congrats on your brand new bike :cheers: Nothing like a new bike, that's for sure!

Why do you have to have it serviced at the dealer? It sounds like you are more than capable of doing the work yourself.

For my 2006 TE250, and I believe yours as well:
0.10 to 0.15mm (0.004 to 0.006 inches) Intake
0.15 t0 0.20mm (0.006 to 0.008 inches) exhaust


I've got a hunch you need to let the dealer do the work to keep the warranty valid. Or at least let the dealer think he is doing the work :)
 
wow cheers for the replies you blokes are great. its part of the warrantee bullox i have to take it to the dealer to get it serviced after 2 tanks of fuel then after ever 800ks and iv never ever taken anything to a shop i just dont trust them. so yeah im doing what coffee said il doo all the work then take it in and tell him exactly what shims need to go were and supply them with all my own fluids so i no whats going into my beutiful new girl.
