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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I onw a 2008 TE250 with the power up kit on it. I am having problems with the pipe burning a hole through my air box everytime I fall on the pipe side. has any one else had this problem with this bike and if so what can be done to fix this problem:confused:
 
Most of us have put some reflective tape on the air box. Many dealers even have fixed this as a minor issue. Maybe wrap the pipe at that point too.
 
I did the same as Scott Summers.
Small stainless steel piece riveted and glued with red silicone to airbox.
I used a layer of some old industrial high temp insulation sheet betwen airbox and steel plate.
 
On my 08TE450 I ended wrapping header tape on the pipe near the air box as well a riveting a piece of metal with a layer of pipe wrap under it around the corner of the air box. I have been running this way for over a year without any problem.
