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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

How to increase torque in a 2010 TE250

From low $$ to higher...

Try going up a couple of teeth on the rear sprocket. I run 13/52 on my KTM250 4-stroke. Even 13/50 seems a bit high in really tight stuff.

Some exhaust systems will tune for more low end power. Some back pressure can improve torque at a lower rpm.

Put a 300/310 jug on it.
 
Best bang for the buck I have found is a 12 tooth front sprocket, buy two though as they wear fast. That is once you have your fi sorted to the best it can be.
 
I find the full Akra system for the TE250 available through Parts Unlimited made a huge difference in low-end pulling/lugability power, pulls better then the '11 310's I've tuned with stock suspension so far.

a te250 with a full akra exhaust pulls better than a 11 te310 i dont think so...... what your saying is that the exhaust gave you aprox 15% more torque mmmmmmmmmmmm i like to see that
 
go to Akra's website and look at the dyno graph yourself, I've tuned a few '11 TE310's and from 3k RPM's my girlfriend's '11 TE250 with full Akra DOES pull better from the low end, period. All of the other TE250's do not so it's the Akra doing the magic and I even went so far as to using the exact same Pirelli offroad tires Mxtra's for this "evaluation" I speak of. Once in the 5500 rpm range the '11 TE310 wakes up and leaves a TE250 in the dust with or without a full Akra.
 
Sure I could see that. It's not always about total horsepower numbers but tuning and shifting the power band around changing where a bike comes alive. My 11 TE 250 has a much better bottomed end with that big air filter restriction and the CAT in the exhaust. Less horse power but better tuned. I hope to change that soon with ibeat- which will change the tuning on the bottom end.
