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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I was playing with my I beat today so i had to road test the bike. It ran great buzzing around in the street until i came back to my driveway. It just died. No fuel pump prime. Crap I checked the fuses, I checked the relay, I checked power to fuel pump that was all good. Holly crap i hope the fuel pump did not crap out. I pulled the fuel pump out and the black wire came off the fuel pump. I was happy that was it and lucky it did not happen 2 1/2 hours away in the middle of no where.
 
Luck for sure.

Imagine a full tank of fuel on a late ride (approaching dark) deep in the forest...50 km from no where...

or at the end of your driveway.:D

Ya I'd call that luck. Glad she's running again. While you were in there did you put the extra tie wrap around the pump?

FI Fuel Pump Mod

:cheers:
 
If that was me it would happen out the back of beyond. Go and buy a lottery ticket your luck is in.
 
Had the same pron on my SMR, black wire broke at the connector. Very small gauge wire and can get snagged on the tank lip when you're installing the pump and get stressed and then the vibes finish it off. I probably did exactly that when I pulled the pump when new to do the tie strap mod as a precaution. oops!
