  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

If I recall, the 125 was 5.0/.42 stock. I'm 150 lbs intermediate rider, but like my suspension soft and went 5.4/.38 and very happy with it.

That sounds right on the stock 125 springs. So you get proper sag with 5.4/.38 springs? I'm 150lb and fast B rider and couldn't get proper rider sag with 5.4 on the 300. My 150 came with springs from a 310 which I think are 5.4/.44 and too stiff for me.

Travis, I have both of those sets of 5.4/.44 Husky springs if you want to try one and it's worth the postage to you.

Sag is right on the money, and it feels perfect. I ran it for a year with the stock rear and .4 front (previous owner) but it was never right. I believe I used the race tech calculator to get the numbers. They changed it a couple of years ago, and it's been accurate for me.
 
I have my bike sag at the high end of the scale, I think it was cranked a little to get the proper race sag then I backed it off a touch to try and find a balance with whatever spring is on there. I'm going to gear up and re-check my numbers tonight and see where it's at. Thanks for the offer Steve, I will let you know
