  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 2000 model WR360 gearing problem..

Gudday!
So over the Xmas period I've decided to give my 2000 model WR360 a bit of love, replace swing arm and linkage bearings and some new chain and sprockets. I've ordered the standard 15/48 sprockets and as I went to put the 15 tooth sprocket on, it just ever so slightly fowls the swing arm... It's a chain gang sprocket, super good quality form these guys usually.

Anyone struck this problem? What did you do? There would only be .5 a millimeter in it.. The teeth just clip the swingarm. 15/48 is meant to be standard gearing I thought? I do like the idea of using the lare size sprockets, less work for the chain etc. What's everyone else using on the WR360?

Been using 15/48 on my 360 with no swingarm rub. It is darn close though. Thats also stock gearing. Maybe the chain gang sprockets are just a little larger.
 
The Husqvarna sprocket clears but others can have a slightly larger tooth height and have a slight interference.

My swingarm has been slightly grooved in a previous life from what I assume was a situation such as you have encountered.

It hasn't caused any problems but I would be happier if it wasn't there.
