The bike MAY pass CARB standards, but maybe they did not pay to have it certified. God knows Cali is hurting for cash and maybe they wanted an outrageous amount for the cert. Never rule out politics when things dont make sense
I discovered the reasoning. It is 'ready to go' without all the 'PU' kit nonsense. That is the reason. It might not be desirable depending on where people live or where they ride, but that is the reason.
I found out the reason for that also. The Graphics did not look good the way they were designing them. More of a technical issue than a licensing issue - at least for the Husqvarna Motorcycles products.
So the difference between the TXC and the TE is lights and emissions??? Nothing else? I was under the impression it had some parts from the TC?
Newb question... It doesn't look like the 2012 WR125 has a headlight. Did previous years WR125/WR150 come with a headlight?
cr will also come with 144 kit.wr should come with the headlight as had in the past.will know for sure when we get one later this week,dan
I love my WR125 / 150. I don't think the engine is dated at all. It is fast, torquey, and long lived. Mine has lasted all year. A lot of racing on same top end and rings. I just hope they get the carb jetting fixed. Either Mikuni or Keihin. Probably should go down to a 35 or 36mm. Be sure that they get the float level fixed which has been a major issue in getting jetting right.
We got our first 2 in yesterday ,they had proper jetting and head/tail and dash as usual.The new ignition did make a big difference .
Rich Daly at Dynoport sleeved my PWK 38 down to 36 when he built my pipe. Good results from the change, so I'm with you on the 36. '92-96 Husky 125's had TM 35's.
So is the new ignition on the WR digital? Will it bolt up to the 09-11 WRs? How much for the parts? (If so, me wants one bad!)
