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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Throttle play...

High, went for street put on my TE450 yesterday and throttle is touchy. If I do not brace my thumb to bars...the the slightest wrist movement causes acceleration/ deceleration to point of annoying. :confused: Almost give that feeling of surging, but it is not.

Is this just nature of a plated race bike...or is there an adjustment? :excuseme:
 
Sure there is an adjustment. Down on the carb there is a black plastic plate held on with 1 allen bolt. Under that is where the cables attach to the carb. The are adjustable just like a brake cable on a bicycle.

I'm sure once you get to your bike and take off the black plastic cover you will figure it out, one or both of the cables are too tight. :thumbsup:

While you are at it, you may want to make sure the compression release cable has some slack in it too. :)

:cheers:
 
It's not like a bike with a CV carb, so yes, it seems a bit touchy on street rides til you get used to it.
 
You can also make quick adjustments to throttle play on the cables themselves- above the handlebar, a few inches left of the throttle - each cable has an inline adjuster.

Also, Do you have a JD jet kit in the bike? Depending on what leak jet(as Dean said) and what AP settings you have, could be contributing to the twitchiness.
Also what final gearing you're using; lower gearing = more snap, higher gearing= less snap.

The rest is in your right wrist.
