Well my stock 2013 wr 125 (has skid plate and hand guards) worked out great got 3rd off the start and ended up 5 at end of race out of 25 in my class, which is not bad. Did I miss my 2008 cr 165, yes I did and think I might have got 3 rd with it. On long straights I could see 450 pull me on the straights buy alot where on my 165 I did not notice any bike out pull me on straight to bad. For stock suspension wr did really well and I caught lots of guys in the tight stuff. So it to bad my 2008 cr165 did not last the whole season but sure glad I bought the 2013 wr125 to finish season off on and know it will be awesome once all convert to a wr165 with Lectron, 200 sx pipe. I ended up in 2nd place for series and happy with that and think 165 husky helped me out a lot. Thanks everyone for all there help on Cafe Husky.

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 also notice on steep technical climbs the wr125 was to the pin and lots of slipping the clutch but still amazing how the little 125 would lug and not stall, must be flywheel weight that helps. My cr165 would have gone up those same hills at what ever throttle I wanted with no clutch that how big a difference there is in motor after all 165 mods are done.

I live to ride !
Congrats on your finish 
They are great bikes with out a doubt. I'm racing my WR 150 in a few weeks in a hare scramble and can't wait to do it. I rode my KTM there the last time I rode this event. I already know what this bike is capable of and I'm pumped. When I'm ready for a top end I'm real certain the 165 is the next step I'm taking with it.
