• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 TE610 owner with questions....

Hey Gang - new to the Husky stuff, bought a TE610 2007. Have a few questions. See pics.

First: I got two sets of wheels with it. The street tires came with some adapters (had the dirt wheels on when i bought) but when i put them on they didnt work, but the ones that were on the dirt tires did. Previous owner told me he used both sets, but starting to doubt some of the things he said.

Second: This Cyclops headlight - any good? the wiring that was done was marginal at best and just wanted to know if I am better off putting the stock one back on or keeping this?

Third: Pipe - the pipe and a couple other parts on the bike are from UP something or other, are the parts good stuff or just a china company? Again, should i go back to stock. I have most stock parts. (i think)

Lastly: the idle (has a carb) seems fine once warm but I have to run this thing on the choke for a good 5 minutes first before the idle is fast enough off choke. normal for this bike? thanks all and excited to learn about these bikes!

You need to use correct spacers to switch wheel sets.
If it's Uptite good parts.
Yes you need to warm it up.
 
thanks for the reply Rick. yes UpTite is the part name and thanks for the info. Slowly learning the ins and outs here of this bike. (been Japanese bikes my entire life until this buy) Using Halls for parts - they seem really cool, is that the best go to guys for parts?
 
Yes, Uptite pipe. The best.

You may need a small adjustment on carb idle circuit.

I still want one of these.
 
Should be a desirable bike in the future. Solid engine and carb. George (Uptite) really liked these bikes
