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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125-200cc Gas Cap Leak/Splash - Anyone Else?

Yesterday, my son pulled off the practice track as the top of the gas tank on his 2012 CR125 was wet with gas that was somehow making its way past the gas cap. Not sure if the threads are a bit worn or cross threaded or if the bladder is worn. Visually, really hard to identify the culprit. The odd thing is that it did not do it when the the tank was 3/4 full but did start doing it had less than a 1/4 tank.

Anyone else experience this?
 
Hi Caferacerman,

Check the cap, it has a circular black seal that goes up inside cap and when removing cap it can become dislodged and if not careful drop and loose forever.

Just something to be aware of I guess.........................
 
un-thread the rubber from the cap and re-thread it following the threads. then install gas cap with added emphasis. seems to have stopped my leak issue on my WR300.
 
I had the same problem on mine to start with. The gasket wasn't fully seated properly in the cap. Fixed that little problem now its leaking again. Tried tightening the cap a bit extra. Still having the problem so I am going to switch over the to the billet accessory cap to see if it fixes the problem.
