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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE/TC A question to all new TE 2T buyers

Husqvarna
AA Class
Hello all,
Just traded my 310 with a new 2014 Austrian TE250.
After i brought it home, i noticed that the box comes along with the bike didn't contain the following:
1. The WP 4CS Fork Stickers.
2. Power valve springs.
3. Carb Jets and needles.

Called the dealer, he said that's all he has, he searched and found nothing.
He gave me the phone number of Husqvarna NA. i called them, they are checking and will get back to me.

Could you guys, new TE buyers,suggest whether you received the above items with your bike?

Thanks
 
Mine came with a fancy zip-up binder that contained, in various sections;
An owners manual
Power valve springs
Carb jets and needles
Tool kit
A blank, fancy Husqvarna full-sized note pad....

The stickers were already on the forks.
 
I personally unpacked my 2014 TE300 at my dealer and YES the PV springs, carb kit and fork stickers came in the pack up.
 
My '12 Husaberg TE250 came with all that.... The jets, needles and PV springs are usually zip tied to the handle bars in a plastic tube with lid and dealer removes them and puts them in the binder, with other stuff.
 
same thing...got everything.. except someone forgot to give me the 162 MJ they pulled out of it. My WP fork stickers came off pretty quick. probably a dealer setup issue. maybe he didn't have them on there all the way
 
I bought my first new Husky in the mid '90s from a big Ca. dealer. They uncrated it while I waited on a Sunday afternoon and the mechanic and new salesman gave me the headlight/tail light, odometer/cable/pickup and some tools that were included in the crate. The WXC models were cheaper than the WXE's but came with all the extras, just not mounted up. A couple days later they called me and asked for the stuff back, plus the original pipe, and suspension springs from the bike I had traded in. They said the customer wasn't supposed to get the extras. I only brought them the original springs from my trade and noticed a few light and odometer set ups for sale in a display case, WTF?!!!

In the Cagiva NA days... Bikes were all WXC's and the Enduro Kit to make it a WXE was $100 extra, that you had to buy. Some dealers would set bikes up as WXE out of the crate and charge parts and labor. When Cagiva USA took over, they went back to WR designation and bikes came in XC trim, but Enduro Kit was included free in each crate. Some dealers installed them and some just gave them to you. My 2003 TE610E was the last Cagiva Husky that had a tool kit.
 
Actually the dealer is a really nice guy. no complaints.he checked again and told me that missing parts came stock with all new huskies that he has but for some reason, mine didn't have it.
He contacted Husqvarna/KTM and say they are shipping all missing parts of my bike to him, no issues.
 
Thats good/smart biz practice. even if somehow the dealer lost the stuff, a couple a bucks worth of bit parts for a customer buying a new bike. No thought needed send out the springs/jets/needle and stickers and even the book and folder if missing.
 
That's one thing about ktm's and family of ktm. They have very nice marketing and packaging. That nice little portfolio bag with the spare parts and manuals probably cost me $300 in upcharges, but it's still nice. Presentation counts.
