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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Pulled 4th yesterday at Big Diamond speedway, part of District 6. 10 seconds behind a podium finish. Had a good start till the guy in front of me locked the front up & put it down hard, was dead last going into the woods (I dont think he got back up)... Passed people the whole race, felt really good on the bike. Will be heading to florida to fish & visit friends/family in the beginning of may for about a month so that'll put a damper on my early season but im putting in as much time as I can this month.
 
Cant wait to get home & back on my bike! Ordered some V4 reeds & ill be going over my PV to make sure everything is smooth as butter. She probably misses me! Got a bunch of free day passes to Gotham MX in Monticello, NY at the supercross race @ metlife on the 29th so id like to get up there a bunch this summer aswell as The Lost Trails in scranton which is pretty close to me, i have a season pass there. Will be racin as much as possible once I get back also. If anyones ever in the Pocono's hit me with a PM & we'll go for a ride!

Great pics! Any other performance differences? Cleaner? More or less power here and there?

It was my first time taking the bike out since I was in florida for about a month. Bike seems a little 'crisper'. The bike has always ripped but it definitely seems cleaner. It was only a little 15 minute blast around the yard im going out sunday (if im not too hung over) for a ride so ill post a real review then!
 
Bike runs awesome, changed my blue PV valve spring back to the yellow just to see what I like better, think im lovin this yeller' one. Bikes very crisp & sharp not sure if I could get it much better, maybe a pipe to open it up a little more, maybe over the winter when I have some extra funds. Anyways heres my plug (maybe a little lean?) & a nice photo in a puddle.

My plug looks very similar to yours. I have been running a lectron carb for several years on my wr150 and it runs great. It seems that the plugs look leaner with the lectron compared to running a conventional carb. Try richening the power-jet and see how it goes.

I wen turnt about 1/2 richer & took it out for a spin, didnt seem to change much still runs great plug is a tad darker im gonna go for a real ride & see how it looks. Not to worried about what the plug looks like the bike runs so good I couldnt ask for anything more!
 
I love this bike.. Went out for a solo slug fest today in the rain, couldnt find anyone to ride with but it was kinda nice to rip & not worry about the poor soul behind me. Sat in the parking lot trying to get the bike started for like 30 mins before I realized the plug was still in the exhaust... durr... I had a bit to drink last night I blame the slight hangover. Bike ran great I didnt check my plug yet but im not all that worried, had a little spooge but that might been left over from all the idling i did yesterday tinkering. Got a nice pic but im too lazy right now to throw it up.

Long time no updates. Been trying some stuff out trying to eliminate that ping I got goin. After some fine tuning & switching to Klotz 108 octane race gas I seem to have pretty much gotten rid of all of it. Bike feels like it grew another 10hp puttin that jet fuel in it too. Ordered up another bridgestone battlecross x40 rear tire, mines pretty smoked. Havent been racing lately been doin a whole lot of that silly work thing. Try to get a ride in once a week at least missed a couple weeks rebuilding the motor in my 84' Volkswagen Jetta. Gonna hit another ride tomorrow with my old man hopefully get a couple more races in before the end of the season but for now im just enjoying the ride!

Seems the Mikuni on my 18 150 is on its way to making a clean plug, too. It's a little blurry, but this is after my very first ride, in my yard, at low speed. It had gotten pretty dark with the stock jetting, and this was about a half hour after going 1/2-clip leaner.

Im running a lectron 'mule' carb from slavens racing, havent pulled my plug lately but I have 0 spooge & a very crisp response in all stages of throttle position. could probably go a tad leaner like 1/8 turn but it runs so good its hard for me to mess with it any further.
 
Always wanted to try a metering rod carb, just out of curiosity, but honestly haven't had the need. Thought I might have to do it for this one, but I'm really impressed with the Mikuni considering all the bad reports. The jetting tweaks for 18 are small, but definitely put the bike on the map.
 
Don't want to hi-jack your thread, but just thought I would post a short vid of riding through the blooming beargrass. Was heading up to clear trail a week ago and ran into the beargrass blooming once you got to about 7000'. I don't think I had the power valves open once in the whole vid even though there are some decent climbs, conserving energy to cut. Kind of other worldly riding through the 3-4' tall blooms.

Cool!
 
Thats where I like to ride my bike wally, unfortunately thats where I get alot of ping. Was pingin today on 100oct AV gas, I guess my only option is to go up to race gas again. Cant wait to put a new tire on would have helped a lot today.
