     WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just picked one up today. It's a little rough, but he price was right, and it runs great. Only problem is a lean bog when you crack the throttle hard at low RPM, maybe this is the bog I've read about? Anyway, I know little about the WR/CR before about 2010. Who can tell me about the 07's? The good, the bad, and maybe what stuff interchanges with my 2011 CR?
 
Congrat's on the find, it doesn't look too bad so far. Those aren't the stock triple clamps, eh? What's the story? Were they riding it with the clutch cable like that :eek:
I'm not much help, I can't keep track of parts crossover.
 
They aren't the stock triples? I have no idea. Yes, there are a few beauties like that clutch cable. The kid wasn't a bike guy, he bought it to ride around the farm, owned it a couple of years and don't think he rode it much. Anxious to try it out in the woods. I have a spare 144 setup, and spare fatty that I might try later
 
Congrats on your bike! Get a lectron and your bog will be gone.I have a 07 also and the only bad thing I can really say is I haven't been on a other bike that I like more,life is now boring,Ha!
 
Play with the airscrew and see if you can take away some of that bog.

It's only a 125 and there is not much bottom to begin with. a hi -compression 144 will eliminate a lot of it.
 
It actually makes decent low end power. The bog gets better as it warms up, and is even better when the choke is pulled out, so it's looking for more fuel. Noticed the pipe is a lot different than the stock one on my 11 bike. Might try some mix and matching to see what happens
 
Maybe a bit of varnish on the pilot effectively sizing it down and making that low speed circuit lean? Carb cleaning is never a bad idea
 
I bet you will eliminate bog with a newer version 5 port 125 cylinder with fresh piston and rings
I did that with my 08 .

I like the older frame more than newer probably - feels good to me
Other than frame/tank , carb and cylinder everything is the much the same
I liked the marzocchis too
 
08 was last year for that era 125
motor stayed same but frame, plastic pipe etc changed.
most changes impacted by use of a 95% scale 4 stroke dimension frame.

are the 125s physically smaller than the 310/510s joe? I thought was same frame jus different engine/pipe mounts etc
 
Are you talking new or old frames
Old 125s are smaller than 300s, pre 08 450/510s. Same tank and plastics though . The 300 is a very tight fit in my trailer. - id say inch or two longer than 125
Id say new 125 frame is smaller than 4 stoke frame - not sure
Maybe the swing arm is longer on 4 stroke
 
My '07 WR125 has been a blast to ride..bought it used 6 years ago and it is still going strong .I did the power valve adjustment spoke about here on C/H ,got rid of the Pro Circuit and went full FMF and used WallyBeans valve spring combo to get the power where I needed it...going for the Lectron...after I heal up from knee surgery and save some cash. Don't go with the 110/100X18 rear ...my mistake,made the bog more noticeable. Looks like someone painted frame..mines silver....pic of mine,still can't decide on graphicsIMG_2664.jpg
 
6 years and still can't decide on graphics :lol: Bike looks great, you'll love the Lectron, but does need some numbers and a big H on the tank :thumbsup:
I just recently noticed the older ones have the rear master cyl on the outside of the swingarm :confused:
