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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just picked up my bike and amediatly it ran much better. Hutch MotorSports replaced power valve parts and left the yellow spring in and set to spec. Carb work was basically removed the JD jet kit and went to the 2018 specs which were the stock needle one grove leaner and the s4 needle jet and stock main and pilot that the 17 came with and he taped my 6 small holes in the air box and went back to the original vent hoses. Rode around my yard and huge improvements .Hopefully it works in the woods,I'm very confident it will run just fine .IMG_5794.PNG

Oh yes on the warranty,cost nothing and he is now trying to get the other 2 150's to his shop and replace parts as well.Gonna try and test bike later today.
 
sounds good! Very interested to hear what you think about the jetting compared to the JD settings after a ride.

Do you have details on what PV parts were replaced? Just replaced with new OEM parts?
 
They just replaced PV parts with oem new, I've been crushed with projects and 70 hrs a week at work .Will get out this weekend and post how the 150 runs.
 
Rode the bike today in 90 degrees and I'm wiped . Bike ran great with the stock 2018 jetting and no other mods . Gas leaked out overflow at 1st and I looped the hose only to have the bike run not as good and then I rerouted the line back to its stock route and the bike ran very good. The carb is angled 7 degrees. Heat beat me bad and the trails were tough.

The shop just finished another 150 and same thing stuck power valves and did the exact same update and that customer is also very pleased with the new updates.
 
What were your symptoms with the PV? Ive still got some ping im starting tot think my PV isnt functioning properly, almost like its getting hung up or somethin. Running a lectron & Vforce reeds.
 
All 3 of the 150's from this shop had bad PV'sand after repair all 3 bikes ran great. I'm trying a different jetting tomorrow. 460 main from a 470 and the leaner needle on the second groove and stock pilot. This was used on a 150 they had more test time and it worked great

Your avatra thing says WR125. Did you get a new bike? I'm guessing it's a TE150? ;-) What year, and what was wrong with the power valve?
 
I've been really happy with how my bike has been running until Sunday when it was high 80's and incredibly muggy - bike ran like a blubbery pile of crap under quarter throttle. Grrr!
 
Sorry just to clarify you're running the Mikuni needle as called out in the jetting chart in the 2017 manual? Don't have it handy to spit out the letters and numbers.

Considering buying an S4 needle jet and giving your settings a try.
