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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hot start button to leaver conversion

Thats too funny, I just said that yesterday when I was out riding. My first thought is to use the decompression lever as the actuator, make some sort of bracket that bolts to the carb and/or motor. Thats as far as ive gotten though....:cheers:

Haaa, well I read about it somewhere but I dont recall seeing pics. May have been in the DirtRider write up for the GNCC setup bike. Parts arnt much good without pics of how to install the thing ;)

Your idea sounds like a great starting point.
 
mine didn't use a bracket to mount on the carb, the plunger screws in on the same thread the red button plunger assembly uses and the 90 degree bend in the cable just sits there, the rest of the cable is secured to the wiring loom where it runs against the frame towards the headstock, then turns behind the top triple clamp and mounts to the back of the magura perch.

paul.
 
Dr D has a kit also. They dont have the Husky listed but one of the others should be able to be adapted.
I have installed one on my yz the older models didnt come with one.

Yeah, the handle bar lever is the easy part, I just cant picture the pivot braket on the carb.

What year bike do you have? There shouldnt be any pivot bracket on the carb. When you unscrew the red hot start there will be a plunger on the end of it. The new cable will have the same thing but a metal elbow and a threaded nut that screws right on.
