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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st Help finding voltage regulator

Hi everyone. Does anyone know where I can find a voltage regulator for a 2011 wr250. I bought my husky off craigslist earlier this year and I've had problems with the ignition system on it ever since I got it. It stopped sparking a week after I got it. I've tried a new cdi, checked all the connections and kill switch, and it's been at a ktm shop for probably more than a month trying to get it to spark. They put a new stator on it and with it still not sparking they believe it has to be the regulator. They have called around to husky dealers they know and they all have said they don't have any of the regulators in stock and don't know if or when they will get any in. I've tried a couple sites and they said that the regulator is on backorder with no eta on when they will get more. Thanks for reading and will appreciate any help. I believe the part no. Is 8000h3964
 
Not sure on ducati CDI, I think my bike is running the older style. I can't imagine it would affect anything, I mean realistically, it only controls voltage in the circuit, does the same thing as the stock one.

Not exactly "Plug and play", but stupid simple, only has two wires.

Because the stock regulator is earthed through its chassis/heat sink, all I did was solder the green/black wire coming into the stock regulator, to the yellow wire on the Trail Tech.

Then just earthed the brown wire on the Trail Tech, to where the original regulator was mounted.
 
Umm, I could be way off here, but the VR doesn't have anything to do with spark unless the later Ducati ignition requires it for some reason. Usually just for running lights. If someone else can confirm that I think that you have a bad/disconnected ground if you've replaced everything else.

I have the older 2006 and my VR is in a box as I race mine and don't run lights.

The ducati ignition on the 2011 and I think 2012 wrs have a digital cdi which gets its voltage from the regulator. It's in the shop and the guy has called several husky dealers and they said the ducati ignition usually goes bad around every 6 months. Not sure how true that is but mine lasted a week after I got the bike used.
 
I just replaced my regulator due to no spark. had the same issue, But Halls had one in stock. I would call them and see if they have anymore.
 
I emailed and sent a parts request to halls in Indiana and bill's in oregon, hope these are the two places you guys were talking about. Hopefully I hear back from them tomorrow.
