    Location:
    Graham Washington, Fort Moose
    Husqvarna Motorcycle:
    2018 TC250, 2015 TE300
    Other Motorcycles:
    04 CRF-270x, 95 CR500, 93 CR250 etc
    Finally got into my boys WR144 to see just WHAT shape she is in.
    prior to my son purchasing the bike, we have NO idea how many hours are on it.
    Since purchase he has put maybe 4 hours total run time.
    Pump gas with NO ethanol
    Amsoil at 40:1
    Lectron Carb specifically for the WR from Kelly

    exhaust valves are amazingly clean - no carbon, move freely etc

    Cross hatch is good on the rest of the bore, but you can just feel the scoring on the exhaust side with a fingernail.
    Ring end gap was right at .013


    Are light seizures normal with these WRs?

    Next step now is taking her out to first over and start fresh -

    Thoughts?
    Input?
    Observations?

    is it Eric Gorr time?
    :cheers:

    Thanx!!
