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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Thanks motosportz. I believe is the same as the yz.

Im pumped about doing this. Would you suggest i do the clutch side as well, or since it isnt leaking and using trans oil let it go?

This is new to me so not sure the common procedures.
 
Wow 5mm bigger thread on a 225cc lesser machine.
Follow kellys measurements mine was just from past exp on my 360.

Just make sure there is no up and down movement on the crankshaft that would indicate the main bearing(s) is/are about to fail. Up and down movement would cause the seal to prematurely fail but it is most likely old age and deterioration of the seal.
 
Okay fellas,

Zero play at the flywheel. Popped the wheel off then the stator and the seal was loose.

Like fell into my hand. Popped a new seal in put it back together and seems to be solved.

The spring was separate from the seal any idess how a seal gets blown out like that? ?
 
Backfire timing could be a bit off or crud could enter magneto side interfere with signal and mess timing up temporarly, had my bike running backwards once it was soooo wet the bike was jittery n pulsing allover the place pulled over trying to keep it reving to clear whatever it was held at 1/8 throttle till i thought was good let clutch out an whent backwards, killed bike immediatly and checked plug coil magneto cover was soaked full of water.
Drained that out and she ran fine.
 
Stator loose! Grab some thread loc on those screws before you forget about it.
Should be a factrory timing mark to get the timing it running, a bit of fine tuning may be required.
 
Bike performed awesome today rode at my favorite track with two good friends great day. Picked up a 93 pw80 Yamaha on the way down. It is a total throwback, purple seat, time capsule little bike. Totally mint, except been sitting for years. The carb was insanely nasty. Like bad, cleaned it track side, easily took an hour of three people spraying, scraping, and cleaning that filthy, carb.

The slide physically wouldnt budge, throttle wouldn't turn, all the jets were cloggled, bowl, body, everything was baaaaad. The brass on the adusters, and jets was worn and pitted from the fuel.

Got it running though, it runs pretty awesome honestly. Good day, sold that to my buddys girlfriend to learn on. Everyone's happy.
 
okay another update.

my cousin got a 2013 cr125/144. we switched bikes and his blows mine away. no surprise there, but just how much it does so is what surprised me. mine has seemed 'off' since i got it basically. its hard as can be to get into the power, mid-top it rips but its very boggy and hard to convince into the mid. it takes a ton of clutch work and revs. where his will pull a gear or even maybe 2 higher with less drama and much more explosive.

is that just a nature of it or do i have some tuning to do?
 
Also make sure your powervalve arm is set right. Several threads here with pix explaining it. Very important and how your struggles to come on the pipe makes me think yours is miss adjusted.
 
timing was set at the factory marks when i did the crank seals.

the pv was adjusted with the nut towards the top of the lever. since no room to move the nut up i went down about 3/4. definitely lost some pull up top but the bottom perked up some. im going to move it back up in between where it was and where it is now get some top end back.

still much more boggy then i would imagine it should be.
