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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Ok so since my electric start dosn't work anyway I decided to ride it without the useless battery. It seems to kickstart and run fine. Think I'll have any problems?? 2013 TE310R.2014 016.jpg

If you like kick starting the bike there is no issues - personally I would sort out that electric leg they can work nicely?
 
According to the book, it's not recommended to run without the battery
It will run, and the capacitor will store enough charge to start the bike, but the alternator will be charging too much and will probably end up burning out the control circuitry.

Thinking further on this . . . .

The output from the regulator will probably be fairly spiky, not nice smooth DC. It will need the battery to help smooth out the voltage.
The last thing your FI controller needs is spiky voltage.
Coupled with this, the regulator will probably kick out it's highest voltage, as it won't see the battery voltage and assume that the battery is flat.
So you get a high voltage AND spikes. Not good for any electronic circuitry.

My advice: don't do it
