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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc GasGas dome top piston -which one to get?

I bought a Wössner GasGas piston for the latest model, but i haven´t fitted it yet, but it´s said to fit straight in. I will check further when it´s time for the change.

Thanks for the reply Johnny. Will be interesting to get your feedback on the fitting and power differences.

Apparently its a pretty easy swap over.
 
I did this mod a few months ago. I used a Wiseco piston.
It worked and it gave more low end snap, but it also had some piston slap going on so I ditched it. The intake skirt of the piston is narrow enough to fit into the intake ports....potential catastrophe IMO.

I'll make you a great deal on a 1.4hr old GG piston if you want :D
 
Hmmm.. seems like this swap is not as straight forward or reliable as they make out.

Might look at the race head to be safe
 
I can only report on my findings. I can also tell you that I spoke to both Pro Circuit and Zip Tye and was advised there were mods done to both the cylinder and piston of the WR300 they built for the 2 stroke nationals. They did not just drop it in. FYI....

It worked for me, but I got spooked as I can't afford a new cylinder and crank!
 
Well theres good reason to get spooked if weird noises are coming out of her ;)
Best safe than sorry to save $$
