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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

looks ok,maybe a little too rich? maybe from lugging the bike though,I can definetly tell you it at the least needed rings,you have plenty of blowby,you should notice a nice power increase,250s run real nice with a fresh top end

so you recon it should perform better?
 
motul- good stuff.

piston top looks great for 112 hours. piston is way way worn out, though. almost looks like it seized once on left ex side. dont look too rich at all. keep a fresher bullet in there and the bore will last longer. bores shots are blurry so i cant see diddly there.

how's the header pipe look? full of coke?
 
Looks good. Maybe a little rich but with than many hours who knows. You should notice a lot more snap / power.

My 09 WR125 had the piston replaced at about 78 hours and it looked very good. Bore looked new and piston looked virtually new. Regardless the ring was shot and the power increased some.

I have entered races after slapping a piston in. As long as you checked your ring gap and you cycled it a few times IMHO your good to go. :thumbsup:

- I have never been a big believer in long slow break in. the dukester will be by to scold me now. :D
