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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi I've recently purchased a 2010 cr 125 that unfortunately after buying i found out requires a new cylinder, ive decided i might aswell put either a 144 or 165 kit in, as i live in australia i can only find the 144 kits over here, does anybody know where i can find a 165 kit on here? Is it definately worth going the 165 kit over the 144? also some advise on which exhausts work best would be great, ive been told over here that the HGS systems work best with the 144 kits but other opinions would be much apreciated! Would the standard system be okay for now? Also will a rejet of the standard carbie be okay? thanks andrew
 
I went 165 on mine and loved it so much I sold my 2011 husky 310 :O bikes amazing, contact wallybean from this site and he will do everything to help you out :)
Also highly recommend changing the carby to a lectron, make the bike near on perfect.
 
Walt has sent other 165 kits to Australia. Go with the 165.

The KTM 200sx pipe is considered the best match for the WB165 and I believe Walt has a batch that already have the Husky style spigot and the proper mounts welded on
 
Just do 165 with lectron and 200x pipe great off road bike. if your using for mx or track use 144 works good also seems biggest advantage for 165 is off road where whole set up works on low to mid more but still rips on top butt 144 rips on top also and going faster on track you do not use low to mid as much.
 
yeah these blokes are all correct. 165, lectron & custom fatty pipe if you want max bottom end. still rev hard up top. stock pipe will work ok just not as much bottom. exchange rate not real good anymore but if $ no issue then go the whole lot. guess with all 3 you be looking around $2k delivered though
 
Please stop teasing me........165 kit on its way. I'm now at the mercy of UPS. Postal tracking is like an advent calendar without the chocolate - every time I check it feels no closer and no treat.
If the 165 is half as good as you all say, I'll be happy.
 
The wb165 bike works for off road great and I will quit posting picture haha.

I just put Walts custom fatty on my 165 today after riding all summer with a 125 pipe and all I can say is the bike is Sick,in a good way!
 
Started my 165 yesterday for the first time in months, Still on the old fuel ect as the bike was slung in the back of the gagage with, Bike has always started first or second kick and even after all this time started second kick but mad a loud crack noise on kicking it, wasnt untill I went to restart it later I found out what the noise was :doh::D Good job I have spares - On a side note earlier 125 kick starts although to the eye look the same are slightly different and wont work on 2009 upwards as they hit the frame on the down stroke :thumbsup:
