  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 A few projects on the go & looking for some parts

Hi all,

I have a few projects on the go and I'm looking for some parts:

Project 1 2004 CR 125 - 165 build with lectron carb and KTM pipe, I have all the parts from Walt & Kelly and will be starting a build thread soon.

Project 2 Another 2004 CR 125 - a friends bike he picked up cheap and I'll be helping with tidying up and a general once over.

Project 3 1998 CR 125 - Converting to 2000-2004 plastics and a general tidy up.

I'm looking for (preferably in uk but may pay shipping cost from elsewhere):
IMS clear tank to suit 2000-2004
Rear sub frame to suit 2000-2004 CR/WR
18" rear wheel to suit 2004
Other bits & pieces OEM or aftermarket that may be of use.

I have managed to find most of what I need on eBay but struggling with the items above.

Any help greatly appreciated!
 
I got an ims tank on my 360, would be willing to let it go as ive got a lectron and thats made the fuel ecconomy awesome.
Where in uk are you?
Im in gloucester so if your near let me know, i have a friend that may have a rear wheel of his 250 if you can get axel measurements i can see if he wants to part with it.
 
Thanks Juicy

I have already fitted a WR tank to my main bike which is the one I have the 165 kit & lectron for. But I like the idea of being able to see the fuel level in the tank, is it a clear IMS you have and will it fit on a 125 if so can you PM me with a price.

I'm near Norwich but happy to pay postage, also I'm actually working in Gloucester for a week at the beginning of Nov.

Can you tell me what measurements I need to take for the rear wheel?

Thanks again!
 
Thanks to juicypips I now have an IMS tank on its way to me!

Still looking for an 18" rear wheel to suit 2004 CR125. Can anyone tell me if a rear wheel from another model will fit, seen some on ebay for 250's & 450's etc but not sure if they will fit due disc & sprocket alignment etc.
The same goes for the subframe, will 2K 4stoke subframe be the same as 2K 2stroke?

Thanks!
 
No worries, did it not turn up today?
Will ask mate what state his wheel is in, subframe 125 250 360 all fit 4 stroke i think will be different.
Think hes got a subframe too.
 
Tank is all good :-)

Now have a subframe sorted as well thanks to juicypips for the hook up!

I am now trying to source a heavier rear spring for one of the 2004 CR125's if any one can help? I phoned round this morning without much luck, all said they are not listed and I need to send the original spring or give measurements.
Anyone know if a spring from another make/model will fit.
 
Humm try giving race spec in tewksbury a call they do rear shock rebuilds from £90 they may well have heavier springs and valve it for you too.

Hope you like seeing where your fuel level is at.. Gunna miss that.
 
Just dropped Racespec an email, also bookmarked the website as good prices on some items!

Did find a YZ spring online yesterday with the same dimensions (except it's 10mm longer), read a post on about someone fitting one of these and worked well apart from the obvious trouble of compressing it slightly to install:banghead:

Got the whole weekend in the garage:) so should start to make some progress (and get the tank fitted).

Thanks again for the help much appreciated:applause:
 
Man that reminds me of when i put a new spring in my air rifle, had me on the barrel a mate on my shoulders pushing down and my dad screwing the rear cap on that thing was hard.

No stress with parts and sites glad i can help.
Yz spring should work but im sure racespec will line you up nicly good bunch in there.
