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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Exhaust modification

I hate to ask a dumb question but - what is that clicking sound I hear during rev down?

If you are asking about the video, there is too much air in the air/fuel mixture ratio causing a popping sound and the flamethrower effect, do a internet search of "what makes a engine run lean" or "lean running condition"
 
Yes, I was referring to the video. I don't hear that sound with mine but I just bought it a week ago and haven't really had a chance to ride it much. I thought the secondary air injectors were supposed to eliminate that. Does this bike not have secondaries?

The bike in the video is a off road motorcycle with most likely a carb (that needs adjusting)... don't do any major modifications to your exhaust and you won't have that problem. I just bought mine a week ago also and its been snowing/raining/cold here, so no miles for me too.
 
Just a heads up...that is not a TR in the video.
It is just to show you could get flames out of your exhaust if you remove the 'spark arrestor'.
The CO's (Conservation Officer) here do checks for spark arrestor. If your caught without you get a hefty fine.
:cheers:
 
Really not into "correcting" the factory exhaust. I never keep a bike more than two years and like have the ability of returning everything back to stock before selling it. Watching the aftermarket exhausts right now, the GPR looks like a nice option and even saw a video released with a Leo Vince version. Will go with a new full system when the options are better available and get a tune for the PCV to better match the change.
