  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 SMS 125, no spark.....

Hi.
I'm fixing up a 2007 SMS 125 for a kid. I've replaced the piston and some minor stuff, but now I cant get any spark on the spark plug.
I have done a minor welding job on the frame, because it was cracked. But I disconnected the battery when I did the welding, and hope that would be ok. I have not been f.....cing around with the electrics, so......? Any ideas?
 
Check coil mounts for rust or dirty connection. After that do an OHMs test on the coil. If that checks out, then check the stator and trigger coil. Most old bikes have old bad connections in the electrical system due to rust or dirt. The coil wire to the spark plug can also get rusty where it connects to the spark plug boot. Also check the kill switch.

Hi.
It's polite to tell, when the problem is solved; One wire going in to the connection to the ECU was broken, and had some minor contact now and then. Now it's soldered, and the spark is back!
