• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 = 2st Enduro & TC = 2st Cross

TE/TC Guess what followed me home today?!?!

Where are the pics?! Congrats on a sweet bike. As far as must do stuff it kind of depends on who put it together. I found a few things on my bike that weren't cinched up to well especially the front axle... way loose on one leg. I tore mine down for a full regrease after riding once or twice (couldn't help it haha, I rode it to my truck in the dealers parking lot haha). There wasn't much grease on anything which is against my way. Check chain tension. Basic suspension setup. Controls and bars to your preferred setup. Check and make sure air filter is properly seated (as mine wasn't). Just suggestions as I believe a bone head put mine together.

No, in a pickup from Castaic powersports. Im very happy with my experience there...
So far ive set the sag, clickers to where the suspension feels familiar. I threw on some used plastic i had left over from the tc350.
 
proper wrap arounds & some extra jets! Let er rip baby. Stock tires are meh but run em till theyre gone (wont take long) Grats on the new bike!
 
Thanks but i can do jetting. I rode it this moring. I got the 1st tip over out of the way... unfortunately she got a battle scar oit of it... traversing a sketchy washout that was steep and narrow. I hit a sharp edged rock with the fork. Nice little scrape between the triple clamps.
So far im impressed with the handling. It soaked up some deep 3rd gear whoops, a steep tight rocky 3 mile section , and tight flowing single track. Jetting is a little off, but she has good grunt off idle...
 
ironic because I was at gp motos and guy was loading a new 17 TE250 onto his rig. so you guys got the same machine at the same time just a couple hours apart.
 
And a hundred? Miles apart...lol.
Btw, i just went to a 430 mj, 37.5 pj and the 43-73 needle, 2nd pos.
I also opened up the slide notch to 8mm wide x 2mm deep.
She sounds angry. Hopefully rip it on Saturday.
Im not one of those guys always chasing the optimum jetting. I'll get it in the ballpark, running well and then just ride it as is. Im pretty impressed with the xplor forks. So far, so good...
Edit: going back to 440mj, 3rd pos. To keep the low end grunt...
