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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE250 year 11, starts ok, acelerates ok 'till 4k revs, then cuts.

UPDATE:

after two weeks checking for the error, we've found it. It's funny, the firts thing we checked and discarded, was the thing actually causing problem. But, it was not an isolated issue, here is the story:
Checked fuel pump initially, pressure was ok. So, that was not the issue(until that moment)
Plugged ibeat, there were lots of errors, reset them
There was an error with the tilt sensor, or the thing replacing it, at the end, I was not really clear on that thing.
Reset TPS, still same problem.
Checked plug cable, was ok, initially.
Then, after no clue of what was going on with the bike, we did another round testing.
Checked the fuel pump after 10 mins with the bike running, it lost about 30% of the pressure, and when I tried to accelerate, the pump was delivering gas, but not enough to make engine go further than 4k revs. Ok, at that point had to replace the pump. No big issue. Replaced the pump, tested the bike, and still some acceleration fails.. Random "FAIL" on the screen.
Went to electric side of things and discovered the cable going to the injector, having some sulfates on it, causing the FAIL message on the screen. Fixed the cable.
Checked Ohms on the plug cable, was zero, almost zero, thats ok, BUT, the plug cap, was broken a bit, and with some movement, it was unable to transmit the electric spark to the plug, and that made some damage to the plug tip too.
Changed plug cable and spark plug, replaced fuel pump, and bike is running better than never now :-), spent 230 USD on the repair and 2 weeks :-(
Happy to have my bike running again, good thing, rainy season started already in Costa Rica, so, muddy days are here, good bye dusty season
