  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

how often are you guy ringing your 144s? i did a top end(piston, bearing, ring and gaskets/o-rings) in mine in may. raced it a bunch and play rode it a bunch too.

also does anyone esle besides wiesco make a 144 piston?
 
I'm interested in the same thing. My 125 could have gone a while longer but the cylinder walls are thinner on the 144.
 
else, i spelled else wrong.

spelled it "ESLE", not to be confused with "ISLE". i was meaning to type else and my fingers just landed on the right keys, just in the wrong order.

huh, what do you know.
 
I did not ring my 144 any sooner than my 125. I could tell by compression when it needed it.

It would be nice if Husky offered a kit that included a coated 144 piston. I find the wiseco very soft and it just doesn't last as long as the coated 125 piston. But for the ring itself just go by compression or performance.
