Thanks for signing in Jon,
Good luck on the ignition issue and keep us informed especially if you dyno as I have yet to see any for the 610 Before and After...
Btw, Is that an Axe?

...

It's and axe and a chainsaw. We were doing trail work that day. The guy's I was with were on a Gasgas 250 and a KX250F.

I'm HERE!

I bought the TE610 off of another member of this site (you can probably guess who!), and I can't be happier. He really took great care of it and shared a ton of information about the bike w/me before I bought it. Everything runs great, and the Renazco seat is super comfortable.

I really wanted something with a little more 'umph' than the DRZ without a lot more weight, and the TE fits that perfectly. I've not taken it off-road yet as the knobbies are not yet mounted. I went w/the stock MT-21's to replace the street tires.

Here she is coming home for the first time about a month ago.

Thanks for starting this thread Dan - it's really great to see how much attention and dedication you're giving the Husky's on this site.

Thanks Everyone,
It's great to see everyone signing in, I know there are a few more of us

...
I am really thankful Baldy has created a home for us here.
Many people on the board have taken the time to give me advice and assistance and what little I can contribute is really my way of saying thanks to all of them.

Nice idea for the Sign in Link...

I thought the TT mounts worked with the crossbar?

I just ordered the 60CSx lockable mount, am I not going to be able to use crossbar?

Dan

p.s. You're welcome Hoder, I will keep up with the index and build our info base...

Thanks for signing in Ditch,
Does your handle imply bad habits

Dan

Ditch · 08-12-2006, 10:13 AM

Yeah Dan, I tend to gawk at neat rocks, trees, perky nippled hikers, (there were plenty of them in Aspen last Sunday!)

, I ran off the road once on my H-D and the moniker was applied by friends who saw it happen.

tshelver · 08-13-2006, 07:05 PM

Had mine since mid-March, but only really started to ride it about a month ago: too many other bikes, and the saddle is a butt-breaker for longer rides.

The Renazco has just gone on, which should rectify that problem, and the Tecate (Baja Designs) headlight is mounted, debugged and a huge improvement over stock.

Jury is still out on the Renazco for multi-day adventure rides. It's much better than stock, and not at all too wide for trails, but still a bit narrow for those 500 mile days... Maybe the Sweet Cheeks will be a useful add-on option.

buffallodan · 08-13-2006, 07:11 PM

Tshelver,
Could you post a pic of the Renzacco, and info on Baja light too...what wattage MR did you go with, how is it for city traffic ect. any input greatly appreciated as I am ready to upgrade the light. My Renzacco should be here this week...

The fender is a one-off custom - don't even bother to ask about getting one of your own. Handlebar bend is high end OCC stuff as well

Stay tuned and I'll post when I get her back together again. Looks like she'll be gettin' some high zoot front suspenders (maybe even rear too

) and some hoity toity tree/clamp/damper mount too

Passmore,
Would that light work for street riding? Could you tell us more about it please? TIA

Chadleys1 · 08-13-2006, 08:05 PM

I think that is one of the high dollar ones from Baja designs.
