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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hello,
This is my first post. I have been reading this forum for some time now and find it very informative. I need your help with my 2009 WR 125 that I bought a few months ago. I’ve put off assembling the light kit due to the overwhelming amount of parts and no instructions. I finally started putting it together the other night and have the lights and display working, but hoped someone would be able to help with the extra wires that I have.

Image 1- I think this is the speedo wire.

Image 2 - Extra wire with a connector that doesn’t match up.

Image 3 - I believe this is a resistor. I only ran the bike for a short while and it got very warm. Is this normal?

I appreciate any help that you can provide.

Thanks
John

The speedo wires do not match up. You will need to splice the wires or get some new two wire connectors. The wiring harness has the new type connector and the speedo wire is still an older set. I was told by my dealer that you could order a new speedo wire and it should have the correct connector. On the yellow resistor wire I think it is going to heat up that is how it is designed.

I hope this helps.
 
Thanks for your replies.

glangston: you're right the parts catalogue is a very good resource.

cb250txc: my speedo wire doesn't have the correct connection either. I believe it's a molex 150 connector. I think I found a local electronics supply house that can help.

2stroked: yes - it has a regulator.
