  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Bike dies while riding in 6th gear.

Last week went riding the 125, the bike just died while riding. It happended 4 times. Every time in 6th gear. The first 2 times, the bike would start after 4 or 5 kicks, and felt strong. I thought maybe the float needed adjusted? But it would just die without bogging. The 3rd time, I couldn't get it kicked started. Took out the plug, looked fine, and I was getting spark. Was able to bump start only by being pulled. The bike seemed to run just as strong as before. The 4th time, I couldn't get it started at all. I was being pulled again, and was able to start it about 300 yards from the truck. I rode it at low rpm to the truck.

Once to the truck, I shut off the bike. and I was able to kick start the bike easy, with no problem. Took a 25 minute break, and started the bike again. Rode it around the truck hard and no issues. So we went for another ride, went for over an hour with no problems.

What could have been the issue? The 2nd time, I felt I tried to stay out of 6th gear/didn't ride as hard? I'd like to figure it out, before I ride the bike again. The spark plug I have in now is, "BR9EV" Manual states "BR9EG" Would that be a problem? Thank you.
