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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi guys,

I already have a 2005 TE250 (now with 310 kit) which I use once or twice a week intensively and yesterday I picked up a very nice working 1991 CR 250 but with lights and originally imported as enduro bike (it's still the 5 gear version)
It is in original condition, except for the front lamp/plate holder.
I would like to have a good picture to try and find the original oan or at least one that looks alike.

The engine was completely rebuilt in 2007 (new cilinder, new piston, rod, all gearings) and instead of the Dellorto a Mikuni carburettor was mounted.
The bike was used 3 or 4 times and then the previous (first) owner bought a TE 450 and never used it again. Yesterday I picked it up, renewed gas (without even cleaning) and after 3 intents it fired up.
The engine runs as new, (very smooth and quiet) but is maybe lacking a bit of top power.
It is very smooth and has no flat spots but I expected it to be stronger at top end. I suspect maybe the power valve (HTS) to be not well adjusted or not opening completely.
I know want to revise the entire bike and service it properly.
I have been looking in internet for service mannual but haven´t been able to find one. Also looked for GAS GAS enducross 250 or the Cagive 250 WMX, which is exactly the same engine but couldn´t find anything more that a spare parts list.

Can anyone help me out?
If no mannuals available, please indicate the following:

gearbox oil, type and quantity
can the power valve be adjusted/controlled on well functioning
aftermarket exhaust?

Thanks for any input

Thanks Tommie, but that was the first thing I did and unfortunately I couldn´t find were I was looking for.

As per your request:

Can anyone help me out?
If no manuals available, please indicate the following:

gearbox oil, type and quantity 750cc AGIP Rotra SX (SAE 75 W90)
can the power valve be adjusted/controlled on well functioning
aftermarket exhaust? Yes, your "CTS" valve can be adjusted, but consult your manual or dealer - it requires a special tool (tool code nr. 46412) The "CTS" opens at 5500 rpm.
 
Hello,

I have also an cr 250 from 1991 just buyed it. Have anyone a idee where i can get big-end bearrings etc etc.
also looking for a piston 69,94mm std cilinder is still 70,00 mm after 21 years :-)
 
The 1991 CR 250 looks like this. This bike was available in Europe in 1990 but not in the US. In the US for 1990 we got the 1989 Cagiva 250 with Husqvarna logos. I'm not sure of the story.

I found some information when I was searching for a piston for my '88 Cagiva 250. The standard piston is made by Vertex. It is available from Vertex...part number 21757. Wossner also has a piston 69.95 for 87-91 HVA/Cagiva 250. The number is 8199DA. The main bearings are simple to find: 6305 TN9 C4.

On the bottom of your cylinder there is a letter code, A, B, C, D, E, F. This same letter is also on your piston to determine to correct size between 69.950-69.975
