  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 07 WR 125 Ignition

I need some help diagnosing a faulty ignition.
The bike never really revved out fully. It always seemed to be held back at the top end, but ran ok everywhere else.
I put a light on it and found out that it was firing twice, about 180 degrees apart.
Now, I've since replaced it with a PVL and the bike really rips now, all the way to the top so I know something was wrong.
Any ideas on what went wrong? I would like to fix it and keep it as a spare.
Thanks, JC
 
Yes, the whole system. I also added an 8 oz flywheel weight to it.
My son said that it was like a whole other bike. It rips now.
He finished 12th Overall out of 131 last weekend.
 
I think this is the result of an analog ignition, just a simple system. I was doing some reading and it appears a lot of traditional analog systems will fire twice, once on compression and once on exhaust(180 deg apart as you mentioned). A digital ignition timing is more detailed and only fires once per rev. As for it not running clean on top, I believe some people that had this issue needed to make sure they used a resistor type plug. But I know you've been on these 125s awhile and probably had heard of that. Not sure what else would cause that?? As far as I'm concerned the CR type(digital ignitions) are way better performance wise and easier to replace. Most any MX 125 has the same kokusan parts.
