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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2011 TE310 issue

They jam because they wear.

It's a one way clutch that in you case is engaging in both directions.

Parts can be expensive.

Yes, you can use the bike that way if you remove the starter motor and gear from the case and replace it with the cover from a kickstart only TC250.

Of course you will have no e-start then.
 
I pulled the flywheel off and yeah it is jammed tight I can't get it apart. I'm just worried about using the flywheel as it normally wouldn't have the one way and free wheel spinning at high speed all day and it might fail and make a real mess...
Thoughts???
 
Well, I guess that is a possibility but in my case I cant get mine apart with heat tools and pry bars so I don't think it is coming apart. Normally, the sprag does spin with the flywheel so the only added load is the ring gear which is typically stationary.
The sprag is captive anyway so if it does free up it is not going anywhere,
The stock ring gear might act like a bit of a flywheel weight, which might be good. I would not worry about it. People spend big money to save weight on their bike. Here is an easy 6 lbs and your bike will be more reliable W/O the E-start.

You are looking at $4-500 to replace the flywheel, sprag and the ring gear and you still will have a troublesome E-start system.
I'd consider just buying a TC250 cover plate and you can sell your starter and pinion to me for a spare.
I find my x-lites kick start just fine and I rarely use the e-start except for trail stalls re-lights.

Up to you and your wallet.
 
This happend to my 2014 bike. I hammered it out with a drift. The only thing that broke was the already broken free Wheel.
 
Thanks for all the input and help, I soaked the flywheel,sprag and freewheel in inox and finally it seperated with an extra set of hands and a big hammer... free wheel has some scoring and sprag doesn't look to flash either, so I put the flywheel and free wheel back in the bike, slipped the starter back on and I should be right for this weekend. I have to price up these parts, but might check starter is good first as no point getting the rest fixed.... looks like I'm back to kicking, thank god it's easy to start..... also back to the first problem, got a new fuel pump so hopefully I'll get a good ride and not piss off my mates by having to get towed out of the forest again...lol
 
Finally solved...

The new fuel pump did the trick, bike ran beautiful all day, it even felt like it had a little more bottom end. Only downer is I had to kick all day, but really I shouldn't complain as it starts every kick.

So happy thank you everyone for all the input

Evan
