Thanks,it is a 1976

I am looking for a carburetor for this bike (1976 husqvarna cr125)

Admit it... it was the pink handlebars. Go on...

..... you know it. Pink is my favorite color. I know yours is brown. bahhaha. Jk.... I did purchase new bars for both bikes. Looks much better! Thinking of starting the resto on the 125 first. Pics coming soon. Thanks for viewing the thread.

88 250wr project Restore has launched

Ring has folded over piston

Guys,
I need a clutch cover for this bike. Any help is greatly appreciated! 1988 250wr

In case you don't know, any cover from 240 to 500 will fit, keep clear of the magnesium covers, if any survived this long.that is, I believe all 87 on are aluminium with the extra mounting screw hole behind the kickstart lever.
What is wrong with yours Chris?

Hi Tony,
I did not even take a pic of the cover to show you but, it has been repaired from where it looks like the shift lever busted the case cover. On the bottom it has a little nick. I am looking to fully restore to ride and it needs to be right.

I just ordered a 67.44mm wossner piston from the UK 240 for this bike. I am hoping it is the correct piston. Due to someone putting the wrong piston in:i am having to bore to fit this 87.44 piston....hopefully it is the non powervalve type. I wish someone can post a pic of the difference in pistons

I bought what sounds like the same piston, a Wossner 8044D100.



The only difference is the intake skirt, the 250 has a cutaway on the intake side of the piston, I modified the new piston to match (almost) the original.



I haven't yet had it running but I'm very close.
Tony.

Tony,
Thanks for your piston comparison photos. From the parts list and diagram the 1988 240 and 250 have the same non power-valve jugs, you think they would be the same piston.. I think the 67.44 would be a 2nd over for the 240 but not sure.

The piston on the left, is this the stock and correct piston for the 1987.1988 250wr?

Yep, the stock one is on the left.

I wonder if the Wossner 8044D100 will work properly without any modification? Does anyone know?

You can use it but from what I've read here, it will make it peakier than it should be.

which makes me want to modify a replacement piston to match a stock one...the stock powerband is pretty good. if it became peaky it would just turn into something resembling earlier 80s husky 250 bikes.

This wasn't quite finished, but you get the idea.
Tony.
