  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 it idles nicely / ticks over its going to be pretty close as long as the correct rod is fitted but as Walt said most are set on the rich side,The last Lectron I just bought came from a UK dealer, Carb has all the latest mods (machined alloy plate to put even the load out on the float bowl ect) was a mile off on the lean side. Wont hurt to set the PJ a bit richer and work it back other than the other way ie starting lean. I extend my PJ screws to make ajustments easy.

Old choke knob from a early Mikuni sawn off - a bit of fuel hose and a drip of super glue each end to hold it all together or else the hose will spin on the screw. Makes life on the later 125 Huskys with the shock sitting near over the carb a doddle to adjust but I do it to all of them as I dont like riding with a screw driver on me what with my ability to crash at any given time.

Have run through a couple of heat cycles, still have a few minor bits to do but hope to get out soon and get the Lectron dialled.

Opted to run on the standard ignition for now and may add the dual map later down the line - I just want to get out & ride it now, its been apart for too long:rolleyes:

Anyone shed any light on the fork questions in my previous post?
