  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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,
Anyone have much experience / recommendations of a 93 WXC 360 ? There is one for sale locally here in the bay area and my trigger finger is twitching really bad. I've owned a 92 350 four cycle but never a 2 cycle. It looks really clean and seems like a reasonable price $1300. What say you guys/gals ?
Thanks
Jerry
 
For that price if it is nice i would be all over it. I have a 94 WXC250 and it is a great bike. Very durable bikes, 6 speed wide ratio, big tank, great do it all mount.

GET IT. this was my 93 360 WXE, I had it for about 3 years, sold to friend who's had it for about 4 years. I did have to put in a new ignition as that was there weak point. This motor rocks and is transferrable to the newer 2 stroke frame as well.

What is the powerband like on one of these 360's ? Are they easy to ride (forgiving), or do you have to be aggressive ? Obviously with a 360, it will have alot of power but I'd like to know what kind of power. I'm looking for a bike on the cheap for a friend of mine who is a beginner. He's ridden my TC450 a couple of times but he is a beginner (not ready for single track or hill climbs). Thanks
 
Stock you'll find the power in the low end. I think most of the 360 riders uses the gnarly power. It's really an easy bike to ride considered you don't have to worry about torque. However, with a few mods like modifying the intake boot, increasing the exhaust duration (raising port about 1-2mm) and together with a Fatty/desert pipe you'll wake up the top end. There are several riders here who have experienced the wrath of a modified 360. It's epic :)
 
Its an easy bike to ride if you respect the throttle, especially off idle. Hardest part for a newbie would be kicking it over. Mine have always fired up pretty quick but it does take some getting used to the stumpy, high kicker. Decompression head would make it an easy starting beginner bike.
 
93-94 Wr360 are a great bike but limited in the part swapping from different years. e.g a 95-98/99, you can sawp tanks, guards etc as the mounts were pretty much the same.
93/94 frames are different compared to 95-98 and 99-2002.
Engine is the same all the from 92 (i think) to the last model in 2002/3.
Powerband...not explosive but mild but with the torque that the 360 puts out, l dare you to hold it flat in 6th with stock gear ratio's :).
There is a knack to kick starting it as it is a big cc 2 stroke...think the starting procedure of a 500cc or 4stroke and you'll get the knack (a decomp head can be purchased).
Personally, throw the carb in the bin, find a 38mm PWK Air Striker, JD Jet kit and start throwing bricks at 4 stroke riders :). Guys make modifcations but l've never had the need as the power is perfect for my riding (like gnarly hills than wide open).
