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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Speedometer Calibration for TE510 09

Husqvarna
A Class
I've got a Husqvarna TE 510 09. and have recently bought some 17" SM wheels. I haven't upgraded the brakes and I'm now riding with the original brakes.

The speedometer shows about 20km/h to much since the original wheels were 21".

Now here's the question, would upgrading to a 320mm braking kit, make the speedo calibrate to about the right speed?
 
Er no, the rolling radius of the wheel stays the same regardless of the size of brake disk.
As far as I know you can't change the speedometer to suit SM size wheels. I have the same problem, I just rely on my gps for speed when running SM setup
 
but on a 320 braking kit you would move the caliper out using a bracket, witch would move the sensor outwards? wouldn't it?
 
True but it still only goes around once per revolution, it's the circumference of the wheel and tire that matters.
 
If you use a bracket to space out the caliper and the sensor, the diameter of the magnet would get bigger per revolution, and if the diameter of the magnet and sensor gets bigger, the speedo wil think that the wheel is bigger since the wheel would have to travel a shorter distance and the magnet will travel a longer distance
 
Ok whatever.
How does the wheel travel a shorter distance while you're riding?
The part of the tire that contacts the road is the important part, the rolling radius of the tire has reduced with 17" wheel.
You can stick the magnet on the edge of the rim if you like, it will only pass the sensor once a revolution.
Humour me some more......
 
upgrading to a 320mm brake kit will change the speedometer, I'll let you know. Anyways going to Upgrade because of the brake capasity. But I still belive thats the way to do it. I have done it on other speedometers that wasn't original and it works.




Just think of a cheap bicycle speedometer, there you can change the speed by changing the diameter of the magnets path.

Any up date here....Or just buy other speed meter??
 
Omg not this again!
Get a piece of string or tape, wrap it around the outer edge of the tire on the 21" wheel then do the same on the 17".
There's a difference right? That piece of string is one revolution of the wheel, even if you stick the magnet to the tire it will still only go around once per revolution! Your new front wheel is going around more often than the 21" giving the faster speed reading.
There used to be a way to set the speedo to the SMR setting but I don't think you can do this anymore
 
Yeas, just askin for on behalf of a friend...Just wonfering if here is some sollution. My solution was buy hole SMR model :D:applause:
Becouse i know that is inpossible get that reading work, maybe if when buy new stock hole speedo
 
You could use a bicycle speedo, in the set up there is a setting for wheel circumference usually. Use a gps for reference until the setting is correct. That's how my old 2004 TE worked, I just made a note of both settings then change it when I changed the wheels.
 
I asked Hall's Husky about this a few weeks ago. They said the best option would be order the 'SMR' Style dash. Direct plug in.

Of course that would work the parameters for the wheel/tire circumference on the SM Dashboard are preset from the factory for 17" wheels . The enduro computors from ICO, Watchdog, ect. all had a user setting where you measured the distance of the tire traveled for 1 rotation or measured the circumferance of the tire and entered this for both speed and distance traveled. I don't believe that our TE dashboards are capable of making this change without some sort of "unobtanible software" or reflashing of some memory chip which isn't made public information.
