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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

TE630 fork stroke only 240mm -9,45in-??

TE630 Marzochi caps have just arrived. One week delivery time… it’s quite good for me. The caps are the “long ones”. For me, no no doubt these caps has been used for Husqvarna to avoid the fork going further than 240mm.

So, as I said before, my mind is that Husqvarna has cheated all the ones that have bought a TE630. All the ones around the world.:thumbsdown:

Should we sue Husqvarna? :busted:

OK, may be the best thing to do is forget about it and enjoy our bikes the amazing way they are :thumbsup:
 
The form on my te630 had been travel reduced by the previous owner so I ordered replacement springs in the stock length from Cannon racing (40mm diameter 462mm looking). Just swapped them out and removed the extra 25mm spacer from the compression rod. Forum travel is now back to 240mm per this thread. However, there was another 33mm spacer on the cooperation rod (see photo). It you found a 495mm spring and removed this spacer you should end up with the advertised travel. Anybody ever try this?

If you remove the 33mm spacer and add a 33mm longer preload PVC pipe to the springs (you don't need to change the springs) you will get an "apparantly" 300mm fork lenght that really only will travel 270mm due to the special cap that avoid the wheel from touching the fender.

BTW, I guess the spring "L" on my post number 15 is the same that your 33mm spacer. As the "suspension specialist" in Spain dind't have the original 33mm spacer...
