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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125-200cc 165 kits

Sooooo tempting to get a lectron an put that on the same time as 165 kit...... Saves stuffing around with jetting :P
 
worth the $ in my opinion. youll make ya money back within a coupla years just in fuel savings! was just thinking the other day if I had a dollar(& a camera) for the every time someone commented on my 'clear fuel bowl' or cocked their head to the side like a dog does or did a double take when I said my bike was a 165 I could afford a couple slabs of beer!;) those snow mobile contraptions you guys have look like awesome fun!:thumbsup:

That's the big one for me, and the not having to futz with it every time the weather swings (which is constantly here in the PacNW).

And the fact that you can make adjustments with just a couple of simple tools. No arming yourself with a collection of jets and tracking myriad combinations of jets, screw settings, weather, elevation, my wife's mood, etc. Set it and forget it. If you're really psyched, play with the adjustments every once in a while just to see if you're missing anything. And do it with two basic tools. Badda bing, badda boom. Done.

Troy if I was gonna get a pallet of beer id need my ute haha(& a lot of pistachio nuts)! then I could just sit in the back of my ute on my block of land & drink my slab of beer:cheers: ps slab is 24 beers in either stubbies or cans(also called a carton/box) & a 30 pack of cans is a block(shaped like a cube). think this is in the AUS citizenship test:lol:

With the discontinued Italian Husky 125s the demand for 165's has also diminished drastically. I have many complete top ends either converted or ready for conversion. I am considering reducing my stock of top ends but need some feedback on if there are enough of you riders that are considering making the 165 plunge or if it is time to scale back. I am ready to go either direction but don't want to sell out the excess if there is enough future demand to keep it sitting on the shelf. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Walt

Walt,
I plan on getting one this summer, can't message you to talk price.
 
Wally,
I'll need one (complete kit, without a core exchange) this spring when our riding season starts again. I'll get it from Kelly right after he gets me a steering damper.:eek:
 
Just put my 165 kit + lectron through some of the gnarliest tracks I ride. Bike performed beaut! Love this combo, great bottom end and chug-ability. Hill climbs become a breeze, starts first kick fantastic fuel economy, great fuel metering straight out of box atm its unchanged and is running fine for now.
This bike rocks!!

Thank you to Walt and Kelly for all the RnD and tuning that has gone into these kits, its a true masterpiece and great bang for buck :)
 
Hi Walt, I'm in the process of talking myself into a 165. I'm thinking it will be my project for next winter.

cheers
 
I got 6 more FMF pipes in today for Mr Walt I will be shipping them to him tomorrow ONE thing I know is Walt does not charge you guys enough

Today I took a new KTM 200 pipe and make into a 165 pipe It took me 4 hours of on the bike off the bike tack weld back on the bike line it up weld on brakets ect ect FMF works with me on these pipes but next time I will send my pipe to Walt and let him change it up

you guys are getting a deal on these pipes Thought I might just need a spare for KOM
 
I'll be buying a 2006 WR125 in less than two weeks. It's beautiful blue and yellow with 30-40 hours on it since new. I'm definitely interested in going with the 165 kit. Do you port these cylinders? I'm not sure on how to pm either. I'd like to purchase the top end kit or have my cylinder worked on. Any info would be great.
Thanks
