    I called to check on mine Monday. No definite word yet from Husky NA which is thoroughly PISSING ME OFF! Why can't Husky get the simple things right? WTF?

    Huskies I've owned or presently own:

    • 08 TE 250
    • 09 WR 300
    • 09 CR 125
    • 09 TXC 250
    • 10 TXC 250
    • 10 TC 250
    • 11 TE 449
    • 11 CR 150
    • 12 CR 125

    Future Huskies I might own....

    NONE! Unless the get their damn shit together.

    Oh, yeah, BTW, Happy Thanksgiving dammit. :mad:

    My guess is it is a sub-contractor problem. The kits would be in the crate if they were available. Husky should at least keep you informed on what is up. No news in this case is bad news.

    I am very encouraged after my discussions with a local aluminum expert on making the newer 125 cylinder borable to 165. Should know a lot more come Monday.

    I'm thinking that your 165 kit with the CR ignition would be the Bomb! :banana:

    It is for me, but everyone has there own specific needs when it comes to dirt bikes. What a great time to ride when there are so many great bikes available.

    I'm ready to give it a try. I've been riding 125s a long time. This is an ISDE in southern Oregon in 1986 where I scored a class win on my 125 Husky. Must have been the Terry Cunningham replica outfit! :D

    Personally, I prefer buying my bikes in the crate & unhatch them when I'm ready. When I pull them out, they go thru my own special setup recipe which takes about ~20-30 hours or so, depending how much stuff needs to be added. I haven't had any operational issues on any of my bikes so far, but if I did, given what's available on sites like this I wouldn't likely get too stressed about it as I know I'll get the issue sorted soon enough.

    Are you getting a 6CHY-16-62?
    I'd be interested in how it works in the 12

    Make sure you pair it up with the 5.0 slide (More fuel = more air :thumbsup: More fuel = no air :thumbsdown:). I would also recommend getting Walt's spring kit and use Stock/ silver spring combo, to delay the powervalve some, helps get rid of that mid flat spot and have a nice transition.

    Send your carb out to RB and get the front divider/low circuit mods. (Trust me, you need this).

    I just got done building (2) new modded TMXX's and I have alot of hours in both carbs. The 250 is close to being done and feels like a gas gas on steroids. I am itching to ride the one on the 144 but my suspension is apart. The 144 now has a cool exhaust rasp and feels like it revs up quicker.

    If I keep getting great results, I might start doing carbs this spring or may do a tutorial mod thread or tutorial/carb kit you can get.

    Thanx

    Dan is checking on a 5.0 slide for me. I have a brand new 4.0 to trade! I do have the Powernow divider plate on the intake. I wonder if it makes much difference if the plate is on the inlet or outlet of the carburetor? Seems it would have a similar effect. Thanks for your help.

    RB can cut yours real reasonable. Divider has to be on front,engine side only. I cut a rear one in a TMXX and it lost top end.

    I highly recommend the RB mods.... Coupled with the 17/62 needle. My 150 rips!
