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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

What came out of my engine during this oil change?

I was just changing the oil on my 98 TE410, and found a large piece of metal on the end of the filter magnet. I put the magnet back in to see if there was any more; there was a lot more. See the attached pics. They look like straps with pins. Prior to this oil change, the bike ran great. It's been about 6 months since it's been started. After the oil change and removing all this metal, it still runs. Can anyone tell me what these pieces are? Thanks.

you got lots of answers and drama over on the other site. As I said I looked all through the parts fiche and found nothing that looked like those bits. Start takin er apart man, thats the only way to go anyway. best of luck. RN
 
I saw that over there, thanks for the input. Looking at the parts catalog, it looks like maybe a transmission shaft bearing. I'm planning to open it up this weekend.

By the way, this bike is wearing a desert tank I bought from you a while ago, I think off a TE610. Did you sell that bike?
