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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

610 Sharkfin?

Is there anyone out there making a rear sharkfin for the 610?

I'm pretty sure that the ones for the 450-510 fit. Call Kelly at Motosportz he has/makes disc guards.

I would kind of expect the 610 to be listed if it did. Not having it listed I would presume it doesn't.

why no 610 :banghead:
lots of sites don't include the 610, I feel neglected :D

And now I'm thinking that the EFI 610 will be a two year run and will be the red headed stepchild. Then combined with the 06-07 we'll have a four year bike run for chassis stuff. All in such low numbers I can't imagine too many people making stuff just for us if it doesn't have crossover potential.

I guess I'll be looking to ask Paul at Highway Dirtbikes to help us out when and if he get's a chance......... He did just measure my gauges up the other day for a billet protector to work with his handguard system so he's game to help us out a bit. Maybe I'll have to go up there with my brake carrier one day .........
 
This one looks like mine. I picked mine up from the store (Tasky's) in Everett, WA so no order info laying around.

The modern TE610 has 2 threaded tabs to bolt a shark fin too. The 510 and below swingarms do not. I drilled one hole inthe top front edge of the guard to get the perfect alignment. It is easy since it is about 3/16-1/4" thick aluminum. The stock holes are universal, but it sits 1/8 to 1/4" aft of the disk. I want my guard to be slightly forward of the disc rotor so it is mostly likely to hit the rocks, not my disk.

I use a Motosportz rotor protector on my front.
 
shark fin

Made mine myself as well as the skidplate--easy as pie.

I just love my 610te--just so easy to work on and make things for.

First off; that’s a huge tree at the background
Second; I like what you did
Third; are those black squares at the back part of a bag system (if yes which one) ?

:thumbsup:

Hi Muddy Waters--Yep that is one mean tree there-kept my Hussie cool after a long solo ride the past week-end.

Thank's

Here is a pic of the rack i use for my soft luggage on the 610Te--I moulded a plastic cover that i zip tie on to protect the Local S/A Kaoaka soft luggage bags.

Did you make the bag rack extensions yourself also? I could use a set of those.

I wish i had the tools to make the extensions myself --But Alas--i bought them from a dealer here in SA that brought them over from the USA --cost about $80 for both.
