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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

What are my option s to fit 17" rims to a 96 TE610? Has a 99/2000 TE610 USD front end (forks, triple clamps & brakes). I thought I had a set from a late 2000's SM510 only to find they run 25mm axles. Mine has 20mm axles front and back so no love there.

Have heard Honda CRF's have a 20mm front axle but a larger rear.

Have read relacing standard hubs with 17" rims is difficult due to a differing spoke pattern to the Japanese brands making rim availability limited. Saying that not sure if this only applies to the newer bikes(the last 15 yrs).

Cheers any advice would be appreciated.
 
I'm going to help you bump this thread back to life, as I'm also interested in getting some 17s for my '93 WXC 610. I have a spare front hub so lacing to a 17 hoop is an option for me, but cheaper is always better...
 
Look at around 2002 Ktm wheels, the wheel spacers they use actually are bushings that take the bearing size down to 20mm, I think they go from 25 od to 20id it's worth looking at. Otherwise check out my thread where I ran a smaller axle and just made a bushing so the forks still clamp to it
