  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Another WR250 Jetting Question

Lay them side by side. Richer circuit = skinnyer part of the needle.

One should be obviously skinnyer in parts than the other.
 
look at the NEEDLE, not the number.

Thicker needles, for a given portion of a circuit, are LEANER.

Thinner is richer. It's a smaller "plug".

Lay them side by side and compare the portion of circuit you are concerned with. One may be inherintly leaner for a given portion of a circuit as opposed to/or richer everywhere.
 
I was thinking the number was some kind of diameter measurement and the -61 was thicker, therefore leaner. I will just have to try and mic them.
 
Just get a JD Jet kit, no more messing around, all I seem to have to do is ajust the needle, of course it's still cold out.
I put the red needle in, it comes with a new needle jet, I have a 32.5 pilot and a 400 main, right now it runs a little rich on the needle and maybe the main but I am hardly on the main, mostly 2nd, 3rd in the tighter stuff lugging it for traction and smoothness out of corners:thumbsup:

I ran a Honda CR250 needle jet with the JD needle
 
I always measure mine and compare to the one I'm replaceing. They can vary from batch to batch.

JD's are custom made. I've seen variance's in those as well.

Personally, I've had excellent results with the OEM Mik/Keh components.
