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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc 2012 WR360 Project

I realized I never posted the clearer pictures from last weekend. Been working 12 hour days since Monday and let it slip.

This side you can see the coolant line that conflicts with a straight clutch cable. As well as the powervalve to show I wasn't pulling your legs this whole time. The 360 airbox boot is also visible here, it's shorter length wise for the more rear placement of the carb, and clears the shock pretty well. The pre-thermostat lower radiator hose from the 250/300 works great. Has a little bit of clearance above the powervalve, and quite a bit away from the pipe. Can also see my handy dandy kick stand retention system on the subframe if you suffer from a floppy kickstand, a piece of innertube zip tied on will keep it up.

You can see how the pipe all lines up in this one. The hangers fit perfectly. Under the airbox the stinger of the exhaust needs to angle up to follow the subframe a bit better to allow a new silencer to be used.

Any reason you can use motion pro cable pn 10-0017? It's what i've got on my '00 360 and the engine looks identical.

My friend had a great idea for the coolant line that goes behind the pipe. He made a guard out of pvc that zip ties on to the hose to protect it. It's saved my ass a few times after I crashed and the pipe bent back into the hose. I use a big metal bar to bend the pipe back.

Good call, thought I had looked for that before and didn't find one. I went ahead and ordered one of those and the one for the 300 (I'd ordered one last year and it was back ordered, so I cancelled). Does the barrel fitting on the lever end fit the more universally sized levers? I guess not a big deal since I just ordered it, I'll drill out the stock domino lever if need be.


Bwahahaha---the 360 cable is now backordered 4 weeks. The one for the 300 is in stock. :banghead:
 
Ah, I'm just going to wait it out. What I've got going should last me that long. It'd should be here by the Oct 20th, which means I can at least be confident of it for the last enduro. Hare scrambles just are not that big of a deal 5-10 mile course, never far from a ranch road or the truck, but I don't want anything breaking 20 miles from the truck. That's the one series I'm really gunning for on the points too.
