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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

SO IVE DECIDED TO START DOING UPGRADES TO MY BIKE. IM STRICTLY A WOODS RIDER. ONLY THING IVE DONE IS A POWER CORE SILENCER. EVERYTHING ELSE IS BONE STOCK MINUS THE BARK BUSTERS. WHAT HAS ANYONE ELSE DONE TO THEIRS FOR IMPROVEMENTS? I LOVE IT HOW IT IS BUT OF COURSE COULD ALWAYS USE SOME MORE BOTTOM END. IM RUNNING 13/50 SPROCKETS. CANT SEEM TO FIND A GNARLY PIPE FOR IT. ANYTHING WOULD BE APPRECIATED. THANKS. PLUS IM LOOKING FOR STOCK 100TH ANNIVERSARY DECALS. MINE ARE BEET UP.
 
They don't make a gnarly for it. Only a fatty.

Best thing I ever did to any 125 was get the jetting spot on. For me that ended up being through a lectron carb. The stock mikuni was too finicky. You can also flip the reed mount's for more flexibilty/Better low mid. Adjust the powervalve properly and keep the silencer packing in good shape.

To me the carb upgrade made way more of a difference than upgrading to a fmf fatty ever did.

Don't forget about suspension. Out of the box the cr suspension is quite harsh for woods riding. This would be the first thing I would do.
 
First thing gear it for the woods Even for wide open desert racing I run 13/52 for super tight I run 12/52 Try a 12/50
to start if you want bottom end and fun factor
 
I HAVE MY CARB DIALED IN ALREADY. JUST REPACKED THE SILENCER...THE OLD STUFF LOOKED AND FELT LIKE CHARCOAL LOL... CAN YOU EXPLAIN FLIPPING THE REEDS? IM DUE FOR NEW ANY HOW.. MY SUSPENSION SAG HAS BEEN SET. IT ACTUALLY DOES VERY WELL FOR ME CONSIDERING IM 200 PNDS.
 
IM USED TO THE GEARING...BUT I WAS THINKING GOING 52 ANYWAYS. I RIDE TIGHT SINGLE TRAIL. SO I MIGHT JUST GIVE THE 12/52 A TRY.
 
No Weight needed please try the gearing first you will not need anything after that

it is a 125 why put any thing on the crank that will make it harder to rotate? I have done King of the Moto 2 times and last Dog Standing 3 times. Never did I want a weight when you find something tighter and tuffer then those event let me know.
 
I LUG AROUND WHEN MY WIFE RIDES WITH ME. THOUGHT IT WOULD HELP. FIGURED WHEN ALONE I CAN JUST STAY MORE ON THE PIPE.
 
GETTING THE SUSPENSION TUNED FOR WOODS WOULD BE THE BEST UPGRADE YOU CAN MAKE FOR THAT BIKE!

How is that gearing working in the woods heck start with a 12 tooth cheap quick and easy you will not even have to adjust the chain much
 
Assuming top end is in good shape
RB designs carb mods and head mods while you are at it
fatty pipe ,
If it needs a new top end - get a newer model top end - they come up on classifieds when people upgrade
 
YA I COULD GET A 144 KIT OFF A 2012 FOR 300 IF I WANTED. MY GEARING WORKS GOOD FOR ME..OR IM JUST USED TO IT. I WILL DROP TO A 12. THANKS EVERYONE
