  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 CR125 to "Woods Weapon" done finally.

AA Class
Well I think I'm done setting up my CR125 for single track riding here in SE Missouri. I posted up another thread on the conversion but it runs to 8 pages so I thought I'd put up a short one on the finish. Here's the original thread:
http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/14-cr125-to-woods-weapon.39971/

Hall's Cycle's in Springfield, Il. just laced up an 18" DID rear wheel for me, and supplied most of the aftermarket parts I used. I can't say enough good about Hall's, really a great bike shop. Whenever I needed technical help or advice on parts they were most helpful and never made me feel like an idiot (unlike some places I've dealt with). They took my take off parts back for credit and even gave me a discount on the new stuff. Parts generally arrived next day after I ordered.

The final additions are:
-Dunlop Geomax AT81 tires
-18" DID Dirt Star rear rim
-Steahly 8 oz. Flywheel weight
-Motion Pro fork air bleeders
-BMP case guard

The front rim had a flat finish that didn't match the DID rear so I polished it with Meguir's cleaner wax. Also if you put on the FWW spend the $10 and get the tool Steahly recommends to change it, saves a lot of hassle.

I have no clue. The RMZ fender only fits on the 125 after you relocate the front holes. The guys at Hall's use Honda CRF fenders on their Italian Huskies.
 
Very nice, If I ever had a bike that mint I'd be afraid to ride it. What kind of rear sprocket? looks like an ironman but i dont think it is...
 
ha ha thats what I was thinking. You probably don't want to ride in the NW then...

Trust me, there is mud like that around Missouri. But if you go to certain areas, it's much harder to find. It looks like the pictures might be taken at Chadwick, or very similar area to it. In which case, there's really so much rock, that unless you went playing in the one mud hole that the ATVs play in (and the cows shit in when they get through the barb wire fence separating their pasture and the riding area), you're not going to pick up that kind of mud there. It's a nice thing about riding there. Year round, any weather condition riding. Snow, rain, drought, it doesn't tear up the trails as they don't rut out.
 
It's south east Missouri between St Louis and Cape Girardeau about 50 miles west of the Mississippi River. The trails are mostly rock and hard pack except after it rains, then it's just slick clay.

There are lots of areas here loaded with rock that we ride all year round and come home with almost clean bikes. Then there are other areas that as deep clay mud and it takes an hour to clean your bike and you have 30 pounds of mud you brought home.
