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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Won't start in gear

My 2006 TE-510 starts quickly in neutral, but won't even crank in gear with the clutch pulled. The battery is fully charged. I have not noticed the clutch dragging with the bike stopped, engine running and in first gear. What to do?:excuseme:
 
If you look on your clutch lever assembly there should be a wire coming from it. It is a safe start switch so you don't burn your starter out by starting in gear with the clutch ingaged. Check if that wire is connected on both ends and isn't snapped anywhere that should be the problem.
 
It is not an clutch interlock issue, as the starter is getting current with the clutch lever pulled. And it is not temperature dependent.
 
Is a bigger battery an option?

I used to race an electric start TRX450R in harescrambles. The only way that would get decent starts in gear was with a bit bigger battery.
 
My 510 is good for one start only in gear...never two in a row.:busted:

Will it turn over at all or just not enough to start your bike? My first thought would be a little to much plate drag in your clutch. Worn parts maybe. Clutch rod? :excuseme:
