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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE 630? Anyone pick one up yet?

didn't say it was safe just that I do it :cheers:
duct tape will keep the tools in place till i find the right size plastic case

PM sent! Make sure you PM me your email address if you don't know how to use FTP. I have some pretty detailed instructions ready to email out.

Thank you JT, your instructions were very easy to follow :applause: and worked great, much appreciated. :cheers:
 
Have removed the twin exhausts and replaced with the Husky twin Arrows. The sound (and weight) show a definite improvement. But haven´t ridden it yet as am still waiting for further parts from Zupin. Hope to improve the high speed wobble by setting the front forks further in. And think that the low speed surging is now a thing of the past. Zupin have informed me that carbon replacement header guards will soon be available. Hope to do some pics over the weekend. But the new zorst is very happiness inducing. The cat is pushed well into the old exhausts and looks to be difficult to remove. The Arrows don´t seem to have them (?). Pillion pegs are also off. Altogether, the weight reduction looks to be significant.

Try dramatically changing your front tire pressure. For my 610, changing from a D908 to a D606 completely got rid of the wobble, no other changes. Easy test to do before making other changes.

I'm totally in if someone wants to take my 08 610 and let me race em on their 630.:busted:

Totally in:thumbsup:

I'm only Ridden one other 610 to compare to mine, and honestly I could not believe it was the same bike. Mine had a leo and was uncorked, his was stock. his was like a trail 90 by comparison.

I have no doubt that once george works his magic on these things it will be a beast.

How do you "uncork" the 610? I have one. It's already a lot faster than my Suzuki 400 dual sport, but not near as snappy as my YZ-450 (but then, what is?)

Thanks greatly for that one. Never thought of that. Sometimes it´s the simple things that work. I was a bit suspicious that taking the forks out a bit might even make the wobble worse. I´ll try it out with different tyre pressures and let you know.

Think that Husqvarna uses the same kit for the 630: lambda plug is removed and blanked off and the lead is fixed to a plug that tells the electronics that it´s now in "racing mode" (the downside is that you then relinquish the guarantee and the bike´s no longer "officially" roadworthy or "legal"). Together with a better exhaust, it certainly runs (and sounds) a lot better.

The catalyzer in the exhaust and the environmental setup were generally believed to be the reason for surging at low speed and power limitation on the 630.
 
Have just got the 630 back from its first service. Arrows, unplugged, pegs off, slipper clutch and suspension re-set. `Tis a completely different bike and MUCH better than I´d ever expected. The old zorst weighs just on 7 Kg! The catalyzer is quite far in and would be very difficult to remove. Have so many pics that it´ll take some time to upload them all. Max speed (as registered on the bikes `puter) so far was 165 km/h but it can do a lot more. Took a few miles to get used to the extra power. No more surging at low speeds. No more high speed wobble ... just about perfect.

I went to a 14-42 gearing and it seems to have helped a bit. Eventually I will try a 45 rear but that will probably take a new chain. Hit 92 MPH with a little downwind, so better than previously.

I then opened up the airbox a little by drilling holes in the cover under the side panel. This seems to have helped a little, as it will wheelie in 3rd gear now, previously only in 2nd. I am still waiting for a single pipe, I think that will help as well. Already did the O2 removal and remap plug.

It went through the rear tire fast, 1350 miles. I put a Kenda K270, have seen good results with those from others and they are cheap.
 
Went to 14/45 with stock chain but have not had a chance to ride yet. Adjusters out about 1/4 way. Still waiting for power up kit that will hopefully get rid of off idle hesitation and stalling. 800 km on bike and seems to loosening up a bit as reported by 610 owners.

How much did the arrows cost and can you post some more pictures of them on your bike?

1.428,oo Neuros (stumm to her indoors), but included the black box.
Bl**dy expensive ... but worth it! Can hardly believe that the factory intended the 630 to remain in standard trim. It can now chug along at 30 kmh ... and then pull off so fast that I´m still astonished.

Excellent !! Glad to hear you're getting her dialed in and that there
really is a "beast waiting to be unleashed" in that new motor. Some of the initial reports of the 630's seemed a little gloomy, I knew it was just a matter of uncorking it and break in time. Thanks for the update...
keep em' coming.
