    WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st Prefered Premix?

Hey everyone, i just got my Husky! Finally after a loooong wait to have shipping to my country its here, this is my first 2-Stroke so im open to all advice, but my biggest concern is what is th preferred ratio for premix, i was thinking of running it 4oz per gallon for break-in and then bring it down to 2.5oz per gallon? any input?
 
We run all our 2-stroke bikes, chain saws, pipe saw, weed eaters, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, at 50:1 using Amsoil Dominator.
 
40:1 for me. WR300 2010, 150 hours and never have a single problem. Compression still perfect. I will change the ring/piston this winter by prevention.. Always run Motul 800 factory @ 40:1.

150 hours on ur stock motor???? wow you just made my day ****************************************
 
Every 2 stroke l rode new or fresh rebuild l've run 33:1 just to make sure that all fresh parts are well lubricated then go to my standard mix of 40:1 or 50:1 on the next refill - any synthetic premix is good just make sure you don't mix castor based premix with other premixes.
Very important to have your carb well setup as a faltering carb (running too rich) will foul plugs regardless what premix ration you have - don't fall for the trap of a fouling bike, maybe l change the premix ratio to 50:1 will cure it.

PS 1996 WR360, 1 x full rebuild and about 4 top end rebuilds running at 40:1 with a looming cylinder replate since new.
 
I suggest 40:1 Maxima K2 or Super M. I have been running K2 most of this year and the top end is still good after a year of use. K2 was especially developed for Team Suzuki and Roger DeCoster. Not only protects well (Dick Leichien says it will lube good even at 100:1) but burns very very clean and smells good. They say it will even measure a slight increase in HP on a dyno over other oils. Super M is a good oil, fairly clean burning mixed 32:1 to 40:1.
 
Bel Ray H1R 50:1. Its great premix and it comes in a nifty little 12.8oz bottle. 1 bottle + 5gal gas = 50: I haven't used a ratio rite in a long time...its a wonderful thing.
 
I know a lot of people get by on 50:1 mix but my personal results over the years show that if you mix at 40:1 the engine life is at least 50% more.
 
I always run 40:1 in my Husky WR250 and KTM200. A little drool out of the tail pipe is ok with me. Extra lube in motor is a good thing. Remember that jetting is the key to performance.
 
There isnt a husky dealership in my country, and the USB that contains the service manual wasnt supplied with my bike, does anybody know a service manual i can order o where i can download one for this bike?
 
Pump premium 4 gal with 1 gal VP C12 and 12oz Golden Spectro.
Raced 07 WR125 for 3 yrs and they did not need anything done to the top ends.
I've been using this combo for 15 years and Golden Spectro since 1983.
