• 2 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Anyone know accurate weight figures for the 2004 cr and the last red models? How do they compare to yz125? Just curious, im going to Start making some weight conscious moves on my 04 soon possibly. Nothing radical but a few easy changes could take off 5lbs im thinking. Have to hit the 4 strokes where it hurts! Light weight is the 125s only chance!
 
Good rider is the main advantage of 125
Do you keep it pinned like theyre made for or are you a casual rider?
A class or C class? No point weight saving if your not up to riding how it should be.
Imo save your coin, eat better and exercise not gym weights just add to fitness level much better than spending shed loads on needless bling, ive never seen the point of weight saving as the first berm your wheels chocked with mud and plastics are rammed full of it so a few gramms at the start makes no difference!

Just my experiance.

The specs that I've looked up say they are within 2-3 pounds. If you really want and advantage slip a 144 kit on the CR.
 
The aluminum framed yz125 is spec'd at 208lbs wet. add 5lbs for skid plate and hand and rad guards and 10lbs for a big tank and you end up around 225 lbs. A wr/cr is probably at least 10lbs heavier but carries it's weight well. I was shocked to find out that they weigh as much as they do. I haven't spent to much time on a yz125 but I can't imagine you wouldn't notice the difference.
