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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE450 optimal shift points

SFTE450

Husqvarna
AA Class
Setting up my Vapor's shift light and wondering what the consensus is for the optimal shift point rpm to take advantage of its torque/hp curve. Its an 06 TE450.

BTW, heard two different redlines for this bike. 10.5K and 12.5k. Anyone have the definative answer?
 
I've had my 510 (so it's going to be a bit different but ball park enough I would imagine) on a dyno and it indicated max TQ of 35.9 @ 7000rpm with max HP of 52.7 @ about 8200rpm. It looks like the max revs on a 510 are about 10500rpm. I know your looking for 450 info but hopefully this can help a bit.
