    Anyone know what the squish is supposed to be set at? what is the stock base gasket size? I have a .08 on it now.

    wr250 .90 cr.80 i run the .03 basehusky part. i know you have a 300 i have heard they are the same. cr stock .05. wr .08.i run squish on huskies .50 to .70 so you dont have to increase volume in the dome. i have tested at the 1mm mark and didnt like it.

    Have you ever compared a squish setting to the Husky manual dial indicator setting? Thread hi-jack - - - How about a WR360 squish setting?

    how do you use a dial indicator to set squish? I've always used solder.

    Please excuse for picking up this thread ...

    So the WR300 2010 is using a 0,8mm base gasket stock ? I'm planning to do a top end in the near future and am buying the parts, not sure what base gasket size to get... If she comes with a 0,8mm, is it a good or a bad idea to lower to a 0,5mm to gain a little bit compression / low end ?

    From the WR300 2010 manual: (2011 should be same)

    Can someone please give some inputs about this ?

    Looking from the outside of the cylinder and with the help of a feeler gauge and a caliper it seems that I have a 0,5mm gasket right now...


    Much appreciated ;)
