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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

My 08 cr125 has a couple decent flatspot's and once I kill the current tire on it. I would like to re-lace to a 18".

So I'm basically looking for an 08 wr 125 rim/spoke combo. I know warp9 does a complete husky wheel, but I can't find much regarding rim/spokes.

Husqvarna-world sells the 18" rim, but It would need to be black to match the front.

I thought I've heard some yamaha's share the same spoke layout. Anyone got an idea?
 
You are pretty much stuck with the husky OEM rims for a 2008 if you want to keep it easy. You can have someone like Buchanan spoke lace just about anything together but you are going to pay for it and you end up needing custom spokes if you ever break any. Be careful with the warp 9 stuff there a lot of reports especially the husky 2 stroke stuff being wrong.
 
I looked at this before for my 2012 Husky. The KX250F (2011+ i think?) excel rim is the same part number as the husky.

That's for a 19" rim though.... so that probably doesn't help.
 
From what I've read, they changed the hubs in like '10/'11 and the newer stuff uses jap pattern hoops.

I replaced the [cracked] rear hoop on my 11 250F and used an Excel that is listed as fitting all the jap bikes. When compared to the rear wheel on my 09 125, there is a difference.
 
You can use anything from 2002 and up I believe. I would stick to Excel wheels. You can always give us a call, we may have the wheel in stock. We typically charge 50% less to true and lace a wheel than our competition.
