  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 using the Force accessories pipe guard bash plate combo on a WR250? I have 2 WRs- 04 with a gnarly and a 11 which I just picked up with the stock pipe. I can't seem to get it to fit on either bike. I think they just had them made when I ordered it. If anyone has one, what year and what pipe - thanks
 
Hey CCP.. Can't help you regarding the Force pipe guard bash plate combo for your Husqvarna 250.. But when I had two x 2007 Husqvarna WR250 I bought a Uptite pipe guard bash plate combo that I never used.. If you can't get the Obi-Wan Kenobi "Force" to work let me know if you are interested in the Uptite and I will post some pics.. Cheers

P.S. FYI I recently bought the same thing a Force pipe guard bash plate combo for my Beta Xtrainer but haven't installed it yet (I know.. that info doesn't help you)..
 
Thanks, I guess not too many people are using them. Had one on my Beta 300. I hate dealing with bent pipes. I'll PM you for the pics
 
Yeh got one on my '10 300. Fits perfect with stock pipe but no go with gnarly. Pretty sure it said for 250 & 300 on ad but the 250s got their own pipe from '10 onwards I believe
 
They were running them out cheap as no longer production bike. Mine has a 10-20mm gap whole way around pipe(although one side has bn pushed in a bit but still doesn't touch pipe). Solid bit of gear!

FYI these bikes came with 2 pipes in Oz, proper pipe n another restricted type pipe that was a different shape but could be used if took all restrictions out. Mine went in the bin! Know which pipe is on it?
 
It looks there were a few different pipes, according to the parts list. I guess it's a no go for the USA pipe.
 
Yeh yours looks similar to the ADR restricted pipe we got here(apparently a good pipe if u CBF removing all the restrictors which involved cutting apart n rewelding!).

Does it have a husky logo n a part number on fat side of pipe? Raised edges/seems? From memory they were physically bigger/fatter n curved around frame more.

Here's my stock pipe(jus paint stripped off). The last pic shows how it got pushed forward a bit after sliding down a rock face the other week. The gap around the pipe in that section was even. My bad. Still nowhere near touching pipe tho

Yes, my pipe has the logo with the raised seems just as you said. It sticks out pretty far on the right side as well. It will be smashed in no time riding here. I emailed Force to see if they would take it back for a credit on some rad guards. They probably don't even know about the USA pipe. Too bad, those are great guards.
Can you still get those pipes over there?
 
There's a fella sellin one on DBW forum. It's off a wr250 but not sure on year. Could find out for ya if interested?
 
Thanks, but I'll hold off and see what Force says. I will likely just run the stocker with a P3 guard until it's mashed and then go to the Gnarly. If they won't take it back, maybe I'll see if I can get it modified somehow.
