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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husqvarna
Pro Class
After 10 years with 300 2Ts I'm back on a 4T
2013 TXC310R 4 stroke
2014 TE300 (Rekluse Clutch)
2017 TX300 (Rekluse Clutch)
2021 TE300i
2024 FE350w 4 stroke
This will take me some time to adjust.....engine braking, engine feel, bike mass feel.
I have 1 race with her, the Tecate Enduro and some trail rides. @ 15 hours total time on the clock.
Samco full hose kit
Evans Motorsports coolant
Athena GET ECU
Stock muffler modified with Pro Moto Billet end caps. Get out your die grinder for this operation.
heavier rear spring ( I'm 208 on a good day 215 after a binge)
I'm actually considering a Rekluse clutch for mostly the same reason on my 2T bikes but more on the 4T as a slipper clutch for decel wheel hop. More than anything this is where I liked the Rekluse. I used my clutch lever all the time on my 300s

First 2 races 2024 Los Ancianos Tecate Enduro 60 class (2 loops). finished mid pack , was super tired was not happy with bike or rider. second race was yesterday after hitting the gym and cutting some weight, a solid 3 hour XC/HS race won the 60 class will check OA times for OA position, but for sure I passed alot of the younger guys on the lines in front. Liked myself and bike more this race. Getting the feel of the 350 and proper clutch work
 
I may do as I have all my past 4 strokes and run the crankcase breather into a K&N type air filter routed and stowed in a good spot, perhaps in the airbox. To keep the crankcase vapor out of the intake tract.
 
I've read about the FE350, sounds like a great bike. I'd have to get used to the smaller displacement but that would be a good idea at my age. :oldman:

Question, how would stowing the crankcase breather in the airbox keep crank vapor out of the intake? :thinking:

Point taken, I had always routed the crank vent hose/filter outside the airbox , which would most likely be my course of action. I had my others in various locations including up front behind the skid plate, also out back behind the side cover.

That sounds good to me. On my early Husabergs I'd plug in a wire covered filter on the end of the crankcase breather hose and hide it someplace out of sight. Its my understanding that as long as a 4t motor is healthy blow-by is almost nonexistent.

Best of luck with your FE350w on future competitions.
 
2 races in 2025 both P1 in the 60+ class. Getting more in tune with the 350.

Note for external breather hoses use a good filter (like foam or K&N type) , remember every time the piston goes up and down your crankcase is breathing in and out (pressure and suction). You don't want dust/dirt/water etc getting sucked in with the crankcase aspirations. Use a good filter.
