  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 2013 CR125 Clutch Basket Gears HELP****************************************!

So, after talking with two knowledgeable dealers, sounds like the only straight forward way for me to replace the kick starter gear (small gear) on the back of the clutch basket is to buy a whole new setup. Clutch basket, gears, and everything all pressed together. I've already drilled mine out, and all i need are the gears... My motor has less than 15 hrs on it, so hopefully some that are new-ish... I know this is a long shot, but Anyone???? See pics for reference.




Still riveted to clutch basket here;
 
Once I get my footage back from Kelly, I'll post the video. It's not completely clear cut when it exactly happened, BUT, We were playing on a hill that was way gnarlier than our average riding... I just wanted to try to high mark it... Got to my high mark, and shut it down.... I was in a rutted out V, and had to roll backwards down a few rock step-ups.... With the bike in gear, I was using the clutch as my rear brake.... Here is where it is unclear when the gear broke... My Theory is when rolling in reverse, the kickstarter gear somehow engaged, and locked up the motor, and broke that gear....


Once I got the bike turned around towards the bottom of the hill, i jumped on and bump started it, and it was clear from the initial fire something was broken.... I stopped riding that day (fortunately), to prevent more damage.

Maybe something was assembled wrong, or maybe it was a one time fluke... I"m going to be f-ing pissed if I buy a new basket for $275 and it happens again...
