  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 NDK plug question - WR250

My plug started acting up today so I pulled a new NGK out of the tool box and found this delema. The plug that I had in the bike was a B8EV and I replaced it with a BR8EG. I had written 'Husky' on the box as I also have had a few KTM200's. Can anyone confirm that these are the same plug or the same heat range? For what it's worth, the Rocky Mtn site shows the BR8EG as correct.

Next question, Whats the difference between a BR8ES and the BR8EG?
 
The "S", "G" and "V" describe the type of electrode, but the "BR8E" tells you they are interchangeable. It's a "R" resistor plug in an "8" heat range with a "E" 3/4" reach. If it says BR8E on it you can use it.
 
Br8es is a regular electrode, eg is the fine wire. I never had any luck with the es, the eg makes the bike easier to start for me.
 
I had excellent results running the BPR8ES. The P is projected nose. The electrode is projected and sits a bit further down into the combustion area making the plug runs cleaner. I could get a season out of a regular ES type plug. There is usually lots of room in the combustion area to handle the slight extra length of the plug. Cam.
