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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc WR 250 vs WR 300 ?

I know the bikes are the same except for the displacement. How is the power different ? I heard the 300 is not that much more powerful but that it is broader and smoother ?
 
oh haha

I think id enjoy it either way.

I find the delivery is a bit smoother on the 300, but has alot more torque, im sure the 250 with a different pipe could easily compare to the 300 stock.

I wouldnt say its like a 4 stroke, i hate 4 strokes. Similar power figures and torque to a 450 4 stroke but still so different.

Pick either, you'll be happy
 
My brand new WR300 turned up @ the dealers today. It should be fully kitted out & put together by the end of the week
 
I always prefer the 250 over the 300. Don't need the extra power for where i ride, don't like the less MPG, more vibs, on the 300 and like the snappier power on the 250. That said both are great bikes. The 300 has a good bit more on the bottom and fills it in making smoother power where the 250 has more of a dual personality, smooth and semi soft on the bottom and rips on top. I like this as I can use the semi soft but never giving up bottom better in the slick stuff / loose hills etc and if I ever need to boogie 300 style it is one clutch fan away. IMHO the WR250 has one of the best off road 2st powerbands going. I ride primarily tighter woods so that where my opinion is based. If you ride dez or sane or faster stuff a lot the 300 might be a better choice.
