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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Question : Does the Trail Tech Vapor allow one to remove the speedo cable and use a the magnet on spoke method instead ? Seems like this would be desirable to help strip down the bike and simplify. Anything I need to know, such as making up some caps for where the cable was ? Did anyof you keep the key ?

If you go with the Voyager, you can get rid of the cable all together and just use the GPS. THey recommend you use both, but I decided to use use the GPS on my CR205R to give the cleanest possible install since I am running it at total loss on a MX bike. And it works just fine with just the GPS. I really really really like my voyagers. I am a bit of a tech junkie, but they are really super cool units
 
Anyone got any tips on making the TE speedometer display the SMR speed. For 17" wheels. It says in the service manual a new dash can only select either mode the very first startup and that's it....

Anyway to erase it and start fresh so I can activate the smr 17" wheel speed? ?


Husylove,

Not sure if you found a cure for this yet, but was riding with a mate who also has a big adventure bike.
His speedo was way out compared to his GPS, he is using a product called Speedo Healer from Healtech.
You can add or subtract a figure from a calibration number to account for the discrepancy.

When bike is going and pushing along at walking speed Speedo reading is 299kph. When start riding it will go to 0kmph then actual speed. It this common with 2011 models.

Sounds to me like its getting a double signal at walking speed, and a single signal at riding speed (per 1 rotation that is). I work with proximity sensors all the time and the fix may be to decrease the gap between the pickup and the target. I hope that makes sense.

Will try and minimise gap thanks for the tip airrider.

No, sorry, not directly on the TE bikes.
A friend has one on his adventure bike for getting accurate distances when touring. He loves it.
It is a basic pulse adjusting circuit, so should work on any electronic speedo system.
 
I was mean that...Maybe my friend has TE model, where are made SMR or something very wrong, becouse he has 22km/h speedo meter error.
I doubted that becouse a have SMR model and in my memory it has about 5-11km/h speedo miss.

And that TE to SMR model, to chaince all front suspension and brake parts on TE model

I think this speedo corrector could be the answer for both. :)
 
Speedo wouldn't work at all so pull all electric connection apart leading to Speedo and sprayed with Mohegan precision contact & component cleaner and hay pressedo it works but still reads 299 when bike is being pushed and hits 30kph it work's????????? What's the go happy it works but why the problem at the start. Any ideas.
