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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250-500cc Looking at the 2013 WR300

I have never had a problem starting my 300 no matter which carb and how off the jetting was. I routinely start it wearing sandals. It must be technique. I've let other people ride my bike and said they have to start it first if they want to ride it. They have all had a tough time starting it. This past Saturday, I wrecked and twisted my right knee pretty bad. I asked my buddy to start it for me and get me on the bike so that I could ride out. He couldn't start it. Standing to the right of my bike, on my bad leg, in pain, I started the bike with my left foot on the first kick. :excuseme:

The WR300 should not be hard to start if your over 6 ft. Agreed..... my 09 starts easily with a few aggressive stabs with the
choke on. I would buy the WR300 over the thumper hands down. Usually they are few hundy less and with the money you can
buy a steering stabilizer, or some other nice addition of your choosing that will enhance your 2 stroke experience. It hauls
a$$ and tracks straight as a rail. It will chug too with a little clutch finesse, and loves to climb. It reminds me of my old
89 KX500 for power delivery. It's simple and brutally effective, and mine just plain fits my girth.....(6'2" - 225lbs)
Easy to maintain and a genuine bargain.
