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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2013 TE449 Power up?

I just received an FMF power core 4 from Rocky Mt. atv for my 2013 te511. Muffler has a male pipe where stock is female. atv shows the pipe as 2013 but fmf site only goes to 12. Anyone find an fmf that fits a 13?
 
Is an adaptor used? Header and muffler ends appear to be the same size. Thanks.

Perhaps the wrong model was sent.
 
Looks right, one is usually slightly smaller and should slide over. Do you have a stock header?

Header is stock. there is no flare on the fmf muffler or slots. Stock has both plus gasket. Pipe is as pictured.

I did not have time to disassemble last night, just eyeballed it.
 
FMF instructions say to use high temperature silicon on the joint. When bolted up it is very secure.
I tried the TC airbox, it does run stronger but, for me the stock airbox keeps it richer down low and in the
Mid range where I ride it in the woods. I also feel like it keeps it cleaner. When I get a PCV with auto tune I will
Go back to the TC airbox, and can richer it up. Just my preference.
 
OK, the pipe does slide on. Forgot about the fitment of aftermarket as in this case not very good. Pipe touches the frame, alignment not great.
Not to worry, I have a big hammer.
 
Yes, the stock pipe is MUCH better made, I had to pull and push to line up the attaching fastener, it will flex enough
Though, it really does run better though it is much louder, and I have the quiet insert. Way lighter also.
 
In my experience, if you haven't, you should loosen off EVERY bolt on the exhaust, even at the head, fit the pipes, align all the parts of the pipes, then re-tighten and torque everything. Most people don't do this when just installing a slip-on and have clearance issues as a result.

You are basically closing a switch to get to map 2. I wired the switch to my handlebars to toggle back and forth.

Anymore info on how this is done? Maybe in a separat thread? Can the TC 449/511 soft/hard button be mounted on the TE handlebar to acheive this?
