125-200cc 6, 8 or 10 oz FWW for CR165????

Thanks for the advice, but I already bought the 12oz weight and its sitting on my bench. I could also send you the head and tame it down, but I'm having fun with it and really want to try it on the track next Spring.

I had a chance to ride the bike yesterday with the 12oz fww and it certainly helps the lugging ability of the motor. I was chugging up steep stuff in 3rd much better than before. I also never stalled or was concerned with stalling, so I'll add that to the win column as well.

Once the motor is into the power its like its not even there. It pulls just as hard and revs out like usual.
I like it and its certainly not coming off (even for MX), but I wish they had a heavier one.

Is there any way to add a dual map ignition to this bike? I remember some talk about it on the 250/300's, but cant remember about the small bores.

This...

Later,

Duh! I read that last week, but comprehended it as swapping for the KTM ignition without the dual map switch. My brain is fried and I'm running on fumes these days.

I'm going to look into it. Can anyone answer as to what kind of effect this ignition has on the husky?
Will it be just as aggressive as it is now in the 'aggressive' mode of the dual map ign.?

I would keep it simple and run a Wr ignition if I wanted more flywheel

I had trouble telling the difference between maps on a ktm 200 - personallly I would leave it as is
Did you have to put a spacer on the cover plate for the weight?

Rode this bike yesterday and I must say I'm very impressed... I liked it more than I thought I would with the Fatty Pipe, and High compression... Still barks HARD though...

The high map may be even more aggressive than the stock map. My impression is that there is much more difference between the maps with the 165 than with the 200.

Thanks for the input. I'll check ebay for a used one, but I'm not gonna blow too much cash on one.
What I really need is a WR165 and a CR165, but that aint happening!

rockadancer,
yes I did have to use a spacer that came with the fww. Everything bolted on perfectly and works great.
Just wish it was a bit heavier.

I've just got a cr 125 with what I am told is a gas gas fww.
It had to be machined so bolt could go on.
Looks pretty big to me . Not sure what it weighs must be 16 0z?
Haven't ridden it yet
