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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Can somebody help please, my 2011 wr250 is running like a restricted 50cc scooter.
It doesn't want to rev out to the power band and its not sounding crisp and sharp. Power valve is operating ok but bike is still feeling really under powered.
Cheers
Dom
 
Change plug and spark
Comp chk
Chk reeds
Mouse nest in exhaust
Mouse nest in air cleaner
Clean carb
Turn off choke lol (I've forgotten it on before)
 
Hi, no exhaust is restriction free, one of the reeds is slightly open. We've noticed slight rubber wear on carb boot and reed housing too. Looks like previous owner has had this issue before and has used a gasket sealer of some kind.
 
It would still rev up with worn reeds do a comp chk and clean the carb that's what I would do first. Most people put sealer on reed block to prevent air leak that some came with.
 
Are you sure you pv is opening? I had bugger all power on the weekend too. Thought it was seizing after a busted radiator incident.
Pulled pipe to peek at cylinder, looked ok. Worked pv manually an it was only opening about a third. Turns out a little grub screw came loose on the lever that lifts the pv.
