• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 setting do you think is the best for you?

racesag? Clicker positions front/rear?

Got my suspension done and trying to find a near good starting point.

I`m quite light rider so spring are 4.4 and 5.1

Thanks!

Any one?
 
I am picking up a new TE 300 this week and since I am 190lbs, I will have to change the springs and probably will have some re-valve work done while at it. This thread speaks very highly of Zip Ty's suspension mods, but I see that both the OP and Zip Ty are on the west coast, specifically SW. I have used Factory Connection (east coast) for the past 10 years and have been happy.

Being from the NE we have sand as well as tight woods, hard packed clay, roots and rocks, downright nasty conditions. How do I know their suspension will work on the east coast? I only say this since the OP and Zip Ty are based in the SW.
 
Robert rides pure tight stuff.... its not trees but its tight with tough sage brush.... with sand, rocks and whoops

Ty has raced all over the world, including being the National enduro champion for several years. It doesn't matter where you are in the world, just let him know what you ride in which area and he will set up your suspension for you.

Here is a link to who Ty Davis is:

I saw it too, the difference between "not win a race" and "now win a race". Not to beat a dead horse but glad you fixed that!

What the heck, go ahead and beat the crap out of the dead horse, he probably had it coming from something he did before. :D

If I type something like that I plan to blame it on spell check... just so you know.

Ty did mine. I ride tighter woods and nothing like SoCal. He flat nailed mine. As Tinken says the guys rides and races all over. He has won the WORCS races up here a few times and it is all tight technical slick clay stuff very unlike SoCAL. I have sent three people there and they all love it for our woods.

Any advice for suspension clicker settings starting point?

Thanks for helping!

They usually recommend putting everything in the middle and adjust to you needs from there. I generally end up more clicks out (-) on rebound than compression by 3-5 clicks depending on how good the front end is turning. Most places will set your clickers when they tune them and its usually close, I usually end up a couple clicks one side or the other of a tuners setting. My 2 pennies.

I think that tuner (Skog racing) put the front comp 15 rebound 15
Rear low 15 hi 2 2/8 and reb 13

I like a little bit more rebound at rear but on saturday I am riding faster sandy trail so I hope that its close to good.
 
Buddy of mine with a KTM350 rode my Zipty inspired TE511 in the dez a while back and with the suspension and motor mods I got form Zipty he proclaimed it the "Millennium Falcon of the desert" which I thought was awesome.
 
threads likes these are really making me thinking of going with zipty for my te300.. I no it was already brought up and all but I ride rocks and very tight single track.. I no guys used people out on the west coast and they just coudent set it up for what we ride over here in north jersey new York area.. would he be able to set it up right for me?? W.E.R is very popular around here and he has seemed to master the guys suspension for our area..

im still very torn

I have used zipty racing for a couple different things and I couldn't be happier with it but I just don't want to keep sending my forks back to get them right if they don't feel right?
 
I sent my suspension to Zip Ty back in June...right before they started working on my forks and shock I received a call from Ty Davis who went over the process with me and went over my riding areas, my skill, my weight, age and answered all my questions.

I am really happy with the results...night and day difference. They took my 2013 YZ250 MX suspension and made it 100% off road ready. Awesome work...so if you have someone local...that's always good. But if you have any doubt about the local guy...Zip Ty is a stand up shop that does really good work. Cant go wrong!
