• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I have a 1974 CR 125 and I am looking to replace with a Mikuni. Has anyone any experience with this in terms of model used and jetting.

Help appreciated.
 
I can't say exactly as I run a 250, but, I run a 38mm - you could probably run a 34 on the 125 on the big end... hopefully somebody will chime in.
 
1973 Cr125 Mikuni jetting

I run a 32mm VM Mikuni on my 1973 Cr125.

Try starting at:
30 pilot
Q-0 needle jet
6F5 needle on the 2nd slot
2.0 air jet
2.5 slide
290 main jet

Note: I have very modified porting, a custom pipe, .030" piston to head clearance (high compression) and 3mm BTDC timing with a PVL ignition.

If you're going racing I can supply porting and pipe specs. Got a few holeshots and wins in AHRMA national competition.
