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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Not sure if the pitting on piston edge n head is from wen she blew the oring n spat the coolant as was ridin sandy singles at full noise before I stopped n noticed coolant pissin out. Wat yas rekn? Is that standard overheating look? Can c a small indent in piston too.

Mite go 1/4 richer on rod n PJ wen put it bak together!
 
It's only fractionally hot there seen far worse.
Yup a fraction more on pj an you should be good.
That could of happend as result or when your exhaust o rings got melted out.
 
Nah wrong bike mate that was the 300. Orings seemed to have lasted a full 5 hours of racin plus an hour of trail riding with young fella today. No rattling pipe so far. Did put sum rtv over orings before installing dunno if that made a diff.

Anyway this is the 165 piston/cylinder that chipped the plating n wore a small gap in cylinder wall leading to oring failure. Wat causes the indents in the piston/head? Jus excessive heat? Looks like sumthn was bouncing around in ther! Inside of piston looks brand new
 
Yeah it's just too hot that it starts eating the ally at exhaust port area on piston as I say I've seen them much worse so your slightly lean.
Ahh right see I would of thought the 165 would run hotter than 300... fingers crossed the 300 exhaust orings stay good.
