    Haha gold mate! Must've bn pretty flowing terrain to get that sort of economy? Yep always a few minutes of adjustment wen I go from 300 to 165. I love gettin up Hillsboro over stuff the bigger bikes can't-really shuts people up n u don't need to say a word they know!:)

    Yeah mate,I think thets part of the attraction the challenge of doing stuff everyone thinks you need a 300,450,500 for.

    You can calculate proper springs rates at the RaceTech site:
    http://www.racetech.com/ProductSearch/1/Husqvarna/WR125/2012
    I weigh about 75 kilos ready to ride and run .40 fork springs and 5.0 shock springs on both bikes.
    300 is plush, but not too soft and 165 seems a little stiff, but works good. Sags on both are spot on.

    5.8 rear .48 front but I'm 100kg(give or take a few kegs-normally give!) so 110kg+ with gear. Dave at suspension matters recommended .48 n 5.6 but I already had a 5.8. Havnt checked sag in ages cos I'm lazy n misus is useless at helpin do it.

    RC, I'm 80kg starkus and went with a 5.6kg/mm (5.0 is standard). Quite an improvement of the rears performance, most noticeably, plusher over the small stuff with more travel control on bigger hits.

    To put this in perspective: I'm a 49 yrs old, 5'8", average fitness trail rider who rides at a 'relaxed' intermediate pace.

    Yeah my misus is a bit the same ,they just don't get it!! I have the 5.4 out of my 300 so gunna throw that in and see what diff. that makes,I'm about 83kg without gear so probably 95kg+ all geared up might get me close to the numbers.

    I reckon I should b at a 6 really but for trailridin one rate under should be fine so reckon ul b spot on. Iv had mine on few mx tracks n at my slow pace with no adjustments it was sweet. Only bottomed on big flat landings. If u were hittin bigger jumps(& or Ridin faster like A grade pace) prob wanna firm it up with the clickers at least but they ain't mx bikes really!

    This is my 2009 CR/WR/WB 165 , started life as a cr125 which was converted to WR speck as the New Zealand Husky importer couldn't get me a WR,
    Last December I fully rebuilt it, powdered-coated the frame, replaced every bearing bush & seal, sent the barrel to Wallybean for the 165 treatment, also got a -FMF gnarly & FMF Q stealth muffler, Rekluse 3.0 clutch.
    Usually I have a Vee rubber Trials tyre on it but swap to a knobbly for the winter months where I tend to ride at the local cross country which has lots of deep sand and big ruts - very good for conditioning & fitness.

    Gnarly or fatty? Didn't know they made a qstealth for these or did U fab it to fit? Is it fair bit quieter than stock solencer? Looks like an 08 or older model by the frame/swingarm/discs.

    Looks good with the blue mate.

    FMF pipes and mufflers fit FMF or stock pipes and mufflers. I had a Qstealth with stock pipe on the 300, tried a Gnarly and didn't like it with my setup. Broke the Q's mount in a fall and been running re-packed stock for awhile. Q is quieter at hi R's, bigger too.

    The FMF Q I bought for my 300 didn't fit. Everything lined up, but the diameter of the slip-on pipe was about a half a millimeter too small. I took a grinding stone and hogged it out till it fit.

    Had a similar problem with the Fatty on my CR150. Pipe was too big by about .5 mm. Had to open up the stock silencer to fit.

    Hi the pipe is a Gnarly i think , it was sorted out and modified to fit by Wallybean when he did the engine mods , was originally for a KTM 200, the qstealth was one to fit a GAS GAS300 which i got for $150.00 from a GasGas dealer who quit there stock after they stopped supplying New Zealand, it fitted up without to much modification by a local exhaust shop, noise wise its not to bad between my trials bike & and mx bike so I can live with it. You might be right with the year, even though it was new in 09 i did get it very cheap so they could of been clearing out old stock.

    Walt usually supplies Fatty pipes with the 165 kits, the 200sx version proved to work best.
