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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi All, I have acquired a 38mm Air striker for my 09 WR250 it came with a JD jet kit. Its running Blue needle 2nd clip from top. 175 main 45 pilot air-screw 3 turns out.
I am having a night mare trying to set this up. First thing is there a definitive way to set the float height . Have tryed the 60 Deg 16mm to top of float then told that no good as it still compresses the valve ? .

Were i ride is approx 0/600m above sea level bike has only 2Hrs on new piston rings and reed petals, Cleaned out and checked P/V when i did piston.

Any a all help gratefully received.

Many Thanks Dave
 
check u tube for videos on carb height check

Id start with needle in the middle - air screw at 1.5 out

check pilot ( may be rich )
then check mid - needle
and then main

FWIW my 125 had a lean bog with blue needles on 2

Rockdancer- quick question [small hijack beg pardon] what needle did you prefer? I am messing with a 2006wr 125 and getting closer tmx carb'1200 ft/60 degrees- still a little lean off the slide onto the needle Ever try another slide?

I used standard needle 60 ? and slide on old tmx. Worked fine for me. Only seen guys going for bigger slide
Sure it's lean ? Hard to tell as rich can feel like a bog
