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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Has anyone had experience with the JD ignition? Any thoughts on the FBF maps or installing your own? I bought a complete setup from them for $115 and would like to have dual maps that actually make a difference for my 144. I can get their programming tool but if someone has already done the work for a bottom/mid map in conjunction with the loaded mid/top map then there is no reason to re-invent the wheel.

Thanks,
Walt
 
Have you installed it yet . If so what do you think about the curves . How much of a change is it from stock.
 
I'm going to try to install mine today, won't have time to ride it though. But holy crap the CR stator/flywheel is so much smaller than the WR. I also don't have an ignition switch yet.

Walt, how much is the software/cable?
You must have been the one to snag that CR assembly from me with the Buy it Now.:busted: It's cool I'll let it slide this time haha. I found one cheaper anyways.
 
Surfer1100,

I haven't bought any of the CR ignitions out there. I had an expensive inspiration to create two seperate motors. One 144 and the other 167. Bill at Bill's Motorcycle plus made me a screaming deal on one of the CR engine assemblies shipped to my house. I had previously bought a set of zoke TC50's from the same CR part out program that Bill has going. I am going to use the JD ignition and CR motor for the 144. I think it can benefit more from a dual map and the light flywheel. The 167 is awsome and doesn't really need a lighter flywheel or the ability to switch curves from low/mid to mid/high on the fly.

The remote switch is $13 and they have it on their online store at fleabay. I haven't sprung for the programmer yet as I want to see what the current maps are like.
 
That's funny, I had the same idea when I saw that engine on his site. Maybe one day, I do already have the pre 08 7 port cylinder, so:thinking:

On another note, what size puller for the WR assembly? Or any backyard engineering ideas? I was able to get the one off my CR 250 with a gear puller, but theres no room in the little 125.
 
I have the JD box for a CR250 that I'm going to bolt on the 300 whenever I source a stator. Been thinking about using the 2011 WR300 digital stator whenever they become available rather than the CR setup.

Will be interested in feedback on the JD boxes
