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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Next on the list of upgrades for my 1998 cr125 are the forks, I've sourced some upside down standard forks of a 2004 model, does anyone know if these will fit str8 on or do I have to change the front wheel as well or anything else??
 
Hey, I have a set of inverted 45mm Zokes , triples and all off of a 99/2000 cr125 if you are interested. I bought them for a project that never materialized.

98 an 99 are almost identical
98 has conventional forks on the WR models and the decals are a different color

Click to expand...

they can fit but you need to do a couple things, if you want to use your front wheel change the bearings as the axle in the 2004 is fatter, trying to remember what was different about the brakes an if memory serves the caliper adaptor is fork specific so you need a caliper mount and wheel bearing and if the forks did not have an axle you will need that too
on the bearings you need the spacers too
 
thanks premo, im going to try and get the front wheel with the forks so hopefully ill just need a calliper adaptor at most!!!

being a 1998 cr that's gonna trake me months to find :banghead:
 
if you have the same brand forks your adaptor should work
does you 98 have inverted Zokes :confused:
