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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2009 te510 clicking noise from top end

Was just out for a ride and first time I've heard it the top end sounds like it's got a type writer in it or a
Comsistant clicking. The valves were just checked by my local dealership about 300-400 miles ago and I was told they say that it takes a long time for the valves to go out of check. Anyone have any ideas before I blindly attack this thing head on. This is my first four stroke but I'm pretty mechanical.
 
Get a long skinny screwdriver and put thee handle to your ear and move the tip around to different spots on the valve cover, the cam chain area, the decompressor area. This will just possibly give you an idea of where it might be, you still will have to pull the valve cover and have a look. Could be a number of things, including a poorly sized shim, if they replaced any of them, and it has settled in and the gap is too big.
