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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Been hearing a lot of mixed emotions and replies concerning the --New 20% more hp 630 Husky--

I ahve a 2009--610 te and one in a crate as well. But i have to make a choice this week as to what i should do --the 630sm's are on a long waiting list here in SA and we can not get a answer from the importer when the next batch will come in -- i ordered one --but still have time to pull out.
My 610 Te with Arrow pipe and power up kit runs like a bat out of hell --

The cost to get the 630 sm running with O2 kit and Arrow pipes as well as the ECU that comes as a --Special part --will it make this 630 run much better or is it just hype. ??????

I can get a brand new 610SM --and at the moment it seems like a better choice to me ---and cheaper to unleash the power within --any info will be appreciated--
 
Hey there, I just bought a 630 and have been really surprised by the results. I posted a review if you want to take a look at it. For the moment I don't know what to say about the 630. Mine may be messed up somewhere and I'm trying to get to the bottom of it but so far with a full Ti Leo Vince and power up kit its putting out 8HP less than a 610.
 
It's your choice what you want to do. I have an uncorked '08 SM610 and love it. It has plenty of power and I like the way it handles. I would not trade it for a new SM630, not enough of an improvement for me and too much weight. My SM610 has been perfect for the roads I ride.

I am starting to lean towards buying the new --09 sm the dealer has in the shop--i have O2 kits in stock and have a spare pipe that i removed the catylist from --i also find that my te610 handles well and the gear ratio is sot on ---thats why i have another one still in the crate ---afraid of something that has just not yet done it for me --the 630--. Have you got a aftermarket pipe on or stock one High-Side ?
 
I have a Leo Vince slip-on exhaust and it runs awesome. I really like my bike and it has been a lot of fun. Below is a link to a little ride on my favorite road. The KTM rider behind me that is filming the ride is making all the popping noise.

That carbon fiber look on the heat shield was made with a rattle can of low gloss black engine paint. Came out pretty good and has held up for over a year.

I also like the look of my SM610 over the newer SM630 model - but to each his own.
