  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 02 WR360 - silencer options

G'day guys,
I picked up an 02 360 on the weekend, looking to replace the stock cannon with a smaller silencer, are there any options that are a "slip-on" type arrangement? (ie so I don't need to replace the stock pipe which is in good condition).

Thanks,
Dan
 
Apologies for the dumb question, but will a different silencer require a re-jet of the carby?
 
Depending on how well tuned you 02 WR360 is and you knowledge on the stock Mikuni carb, probably not, maybe an adjustment on the air screw or possibly the needle height...then again this totally subjective - how does the 360 run now?
 
The bike is running well (for a novice rider)... though my knowledge of Mikuni carbs is even more lacking than my knowledge of the way women think.
Spose I'll whack the new silencer on and see how she fares. Cheers mate
 
Stock pipe's pretty good...you want to ditch the expansion chamber and slap on a fmf or procircuit unit to feel a better bottom or top end (depend on which pipe you get).
Keihin 38mm PWK, Wallybean's airboot mod and gearing and you'll have ktm300 rider's asking you what husky is it (thinking it's a 250)...and when you say it's a 360, just watch their faces as they justify why you are able to pull away from them :)
 
That sounds the business! I've sussed out the Keihin, is there any info handy on the gearing and airboot mod?
 
Surge,

I think the airboot/reed stuffer mod is posted over at TT. I will try to find it and re-post here over the weekend just as an FYI in the 2 stroke section.
 
Big thank you's to Wallybean on the airboot mod....that mod alone smooths out the transitions from 1/4 to 3/4/full and the bike literally pulls much much more than the restrictive original airboot.
