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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My that's nice lookin' stuff. I'll be in the states in late September and'll order some for a hand-carry back to
Indonesia..
 
Is there any increase or loss in oil volume? Or OEM spec inside shape?

Oil volume remains almost identical to stock. Both for the clutch and stator covers. If you look at your oil level in the window and draw an imaginary line across the clutch cover you will see that the oil level only fills a very small portion of the bottom of the clutch cover. The cover would have to be much deeper or have some weird bulbous shape to increase the oil capacity by any significant amount.
 
Clay,

Thanx for getting my order out so prompt on the new ignition/clutch covers for the 13 x lites.

I will post some pics up as soon as I get them on! They are sweet looking and looks like A+ fit and finish as always.

That red anodizing is gonna look good!
 
Clay,

Got the covers and bolted them on. PS: nice, very nice! A+ craftsmanship! Also, thanx for the ignition cover coming with a new bearing pressed in it.

Will post some pics of covers installed on bike in am, but these covers look bad with the other red stuff on my bike.

These offer more than just good looks and strength. These x-lite engines run extremely hot oil temperatures due to the cases being made out of a weird insulative aluminum alloy. I am guessing the heat transferred through this cover will be well worth the cost to upgrade. :)

 
Colo,
In re: to what Tinken has posted what is the material you use (if you want to disclose).
Also have you given consideration to construct "trick" engine covers like the TM Racing factory MXGP bikes with heat sink ridges on them for even more heat transfer surface area? Note: how they ridge them, where you never go with the boot or feel, so they remain normal smooth in the chafe areas but more heat sink in the non- interference areas.

PS my ex 2008 TXC450 has the 7602 clutch cover on it, boot and rock worn but still going strong.
PPS, Colo can I order one in natural finish (non anodized) ?
PPPPS TM Racing motorcycles are rolling artwork.
 
Robertaccio, material is standard 6061 what almost all machined doo dads are made from. Yes I have considered building heat sink type covers but decided on the clean simple design for several reasons.

We don't have any raw unanodized covers available. We made a large initial run so it will likely be a while until we make these again.
 
You don't think the high engine temps on x-lite motors have anything to do with the low oil capacity ?? just saying.
