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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125-200cc 2009 WR125 power valve plastic connection"Brake"

I was wondering if anyone has had to replace their plastic connection (the parts manual calls it a brake) between the lower and upper actuating arms of the power valve. Mine broke and I ordered a new one part number 8000 83115 but the replacement is almost twice as long as the original. I have checked the 2010 parts manual also to see if the part number changed but it is the same. Any insites would help.

Thanks
Chris
 
Chris,

The 125's used the same "brake" from at least 2000 to present. If the new one is too long then something is wrong. It could be one from a WR250. Can you take a pic and post it?

Also take measurements of both and I can tell you which is which

The original is about 70cm long and the new one is 115cm. Could this be for the 250?

Thanks
 
Chris,

The stock 125 plastic arm is ~ 60 mm center to center of the pins. So the 115 cm is for the 250 or 300.
 
I try to avoid snapping those apart in fear of breaking one. If I do, I use a set of needle nose pliers and pry equally underneath them, where it snaps on the pivot ball.
