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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

130/80x18 IRC M5B one earth moving SOB,frt is IRC51m Vuncanduro 10/80X21 its a large tire with some height to protect and guide the big bore frt end.
 
How loud is the bike with the holes in the airbox and the single exhaust - scale of 1 to 10 with a 1 being stock and 10 being open pipe harley? Just removing the maze in the airbox and the snorkel make a lot more intake honk. I wound up putting the snorkel back on - I'm all for more power but I really like how quiet the bike is.
 
I would say it sounds about like a 610 with a Leo... not whisper quiet but a soft deep rumble. It passed me in the woods and I didnt notice the sound, although I did duck for the incoming dirt clods and rocks it throws .....

I ordered one of these from Hall's. Just tried it on my my TE630 - way too long. Must fit your bike because of the taller front suspension from the 511. It will NOT work on a stock 630.
 
Extended the shift lever 1.5"? I'll give you my first born if you can do that to my 630! And if you won't take children in trade I'll pay you!! :thinking:
 
bRING IT DOWN WE CAN DI IT.>RACED WASHOUGAL ,FIRST RACE SINCE 2006 WENT GREAT HAD A BLAST ON THE WR150
 
Is there a way to make the 630 suspension taller? Aren't the 610's a little taller than the 630's

Bill,

What footpegs did you guys use? Also were any modifications required to get them to fit properly?

Thanks

I swapped out my stock pegs for some 510 pegs. They're a direct fit.

The main issue with the 630 pegs is that they're designed with the rubber pads in mind. That gives you a higher foot position, putting the brake and shifter levers down where they're more natural feeling.

The 510 pegs do not have rubber pads, and sit a little bit higher than the 630 pegs. That puts the foot controls in a little bit better position, but I could still use a lower brake pedal.

So, that's accomplishing the same thing from a different angle. Raise the pegs instead of lower the controls.
