  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 My 2002 CR125 project

I think I have a budget in mind as to getting the bike running. Now I just need to figure out which direction to go. The bike before being assembled by an unknowing tech was as follows.

Stock bore with milled head PC works pipe and PC T304 silencer. Jetted accordingly

I can run this configuration if I had the cylinder sent out and use the piston Walt gave me a good deal on...

Option 2: stock 125 setup pulled from 09-14'
Option 3: 144 setup from 09-14'

With option 1 I imagine I may not even need to jet the carb since bike was local.
With 2 or 3 I am certain some jetting will be necessary.
I'm just wondering what should run the best. Still have the stock Mikuni which will be the most limiting factor
 
For general off road riding I'd go 144, either with the original top end or the newer setup. With the Mik you're always going to do some jetting :rolleyes: If you're stuck with it just rebuild it, with a new float, get the JD jet kit and study the jetting thread. Better yet, post in the classifieds here and watch ebay for a used Keihen. You can sell the Mik to recover a little of the cost.
:cheers:
