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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just Bought A 2013 Tr650 Stada. I Feel I Was Conned. Stalling And Other Issues.

Bought a 2013 husky tr650 strada. I wasn't able to take it on the highway because I wasn't comfortable being the heavy traffic with a bike that wasnt mine.

I was told there wasn't a single issue with the bike other than it may need tires soon, which was obvious. It started stalling out. It would get to higher rpms and it would stumble. I almost dumped it because of the stall. I put new gas in it, new oil, new plugs, and changed the air filter thus far.
 
I recommend putting a ground wire on the ECU also. I had an issue with misfiring and a CEL in the higher RPMs, running a ground wire from an ecu case screw to the negative battery terminal fixed it. Also provides some safety from accidentally shorting the ECU and bricking the bike.
