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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Working on friends KTM250XC (2006) it came with a rad valve on it. Reeds were frayed, have new ones on the way. Anyone have experience with Rad Valves? Jetting whoas? easy to tune with? No issues? The best thing ever? Thanks RN
oh yea exhaust is FMF Gnarley with Turbine core 2 S/A a great green sticker US forestry legal set up.
 
Thanks, thats good enough. I also got a nice fast very simple tech answer from Boyesen. OEM jetting should be fine, with the current configuration FMF gnarley/turbine core 2 exhaust set up and rad valve on the intake side. I like that, simplicity at its best. The OEM jetting also fits within the pressure/temp altitude chart recommendation for our 99% go to riding areas. So when we baseline this thing we will start straight up with the stock 250XC carburation set up. Pilot should remain as is and main covers a lot of ground as well, we should only need to play with the needle position to get a good clean setting-eezy schmeezy. Another good note Ive heard that the 250 kato is much less jet picky than the 300 Kato.
PS look for the 5-1-1 and others of us viddy, its on the way.

My 06 xc 300 had one.Good for mid to top but gives a little away on the bottom.Still I liked it.
 
I put one on my Blaster, it complements the White Bros. carb & booster kit and the FMF SST exhaust quite nicely. It's the fastest stock bore Blaster around, it really screams through the midrange and top end.
