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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

New TE 310 Turn Signals and License Plate

Husqvarna
AA Class
Hi. This is my first post about my new 2010 Te310. I just finished remounting the turn signals and license plate holder. The project turned out so nice I wanted to share it. I made new hangers out of number plate plastic and attached the stock lights to the bolts of the original carrier. Then made a license plate size piece bolted to the white tail of the fender. The plastic hangers are flexible and allow the lights to push under the fender WHEN I crash.

Other than that I have removed the emissions stuff, MX51 tires, Kubalink H-2, ECU mapping, and fixed the fuel pump tie. This forum has been so helpful. Thanks all of you for the information.

Be nice if I could see one, the dealers are selling them still in the crate and I'm not lucky enough to live within 3 miles of a dealer.
 
Great job! I have been working on mounting my plate and turn signals as well. I cut and modified the stock black plate holder that came with the bike so I did not need to relocate the turn signals. I am in the process of mounting the plate. Yours looks great.
 
Great idea mounting them with small flexible plastic brackets, I have been thinking of doing it myself. (more like cobb92 -modifying the original brackets I got with the bike) Did you try and stuff all the wiring behind the stop light ,it would look neater, and I think it would probably fit?
Love my 310 too (2011 model) but need to find more time to ride it ****************************************!!
 
Roberk61. Good idea on getting the wires up under the tail light. I'll look. They come from the front down the left side but I may be able to push them up with the tail and license plate wires. I was going to cut the original bracket but now I still have it intact in case I ever need to put it back on. The plastic is number plate stuff. Three 8x12" for about $10. I made them just long enough to get the turn lights to clear and fit up under the fender. Any longer and they wobbled too much. Does not seem to be a heat issue with the left light either.
 
Put mine on today, very similar to shilo020 in that I used some flexible plastic ( I work in a panel shop so used some off an old guard liner).
What I did notice is that the Australian spec ones are a lot different to the US ones (although I have a 2011 model) and they have a flexible rubber mount, not as solid looking as the US ones, so they are extremely flexible now, especially at the rear.
BTW, I tucked all the wires in behind the stop light, there are actually 2 cutouts in the grommet that goes through the rear guard and the wires just sit nicely under there.

I could post some pics if anyone wants?
 
Nice modification. I have been considering that option, but in Australia we must have a white numberplate light attached. Therefore, I was going to add a suitable white LED for illumination, but I have not yet worked out a way to mount it yet.
