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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

did you get much more power?

FMF claims 15% more power, but we think it's closer to 8% hp which is still very good. I did notice that the added back pressure the megabomb header provides the cylinder at low rpm helps to prevent the flame out issues in this area.

It definitely improves power. My only reference is the stock exhaust though. I got the full system shipped to sydney for about 700. Will be more now due to the exchange rate but still cheaper than the Akra.

sweet, do you have the powercore or the factory 4.1?
 
The only two fmf silencers that fit the megabomb for the TC449 is the factory 4.1 and the Q4. The 4.1 is best for power, Q4 for quietness. You'll need the TC449 head mounts, gasket and springs too.
 
Hi all,

just joined as a first time supermoto owner. I've ridden sports bikes for many years and just got plain bored of 'em so I've bought this little beasty!

Now, being used to 2 or 3 times as much power as these things produce, I was obviously a little surprised when I first rode a 'tard so thoughts of tuning came to mind which bought me here...

I've yet to see my new purchase in the flesh, have placed a deposit on it and going to see it tomorrow. There's receipts for somewhere in the region of £7k parts according to the dealer, including excel rims, xtrig yokes, body work, pro-taper bars, sprocket, pegs etc.

It's listed as having a full Akra system but I'm not convinced, can someone identify what's going on with the exhaust from the pic? Is it standard header with CF guard or is it indeed a full system? who knows, maybe the previous owner is on here!? What are the gains when changing the header?

I don't know if race map II is selected, if not do I need a full system to release the most power or is it "nearly" there with the standard header?

Thanks in advance for any advice, look forward to chatting with you guys, Jon.

Just spoke to the dealer who informs me that there is a plug in the exhaust header where the O2 sensor was. This suggests stock header to me, right?
 
Looks like stock header with the Akra muffler. Should be a good start. You can make it in race map 2 mode with a jumper in the jumper plug under the seat.

ive got my 449 with akra race pipe and makes a big difference..i will also recommend it
 
Hey there, I've recently bought an smr511, it's got the akro exhaust already and modified the airbox, and the previous owner actually went down a few teeth on the back for highway and track riding (fairly long straight). Does anyone know where to buy some replacement plastics besides from Husqvarna because the ones on are mint and I'd like to keep them that way haha. And does anyone know of some good handgaurds/sliders, especially an exhaust one as I'd hate to lay it down on it!! Thanks in advance. :) any other must haves or suggestions welcome.
 
UFO make replacement plastics for the TE, which I have on my smr.
Got a exhaust slider from a group buy organised by martyd on supermotoaus that has held up fairly well.
