  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 question on steahly flywheel install on WR

I am installing a Steahly flywheel weight on my 07 WR250. I bought the bike used and the weight came with it. No instructions were included. I removed the nut and washer that hold the stock flywheel on using an air wrench. I screwed the weight on until it fit flush on there. I tightened down the four set screws that secure it to the flywheel. The weight screws into the stock flywheel threads.Since I can't use the stock nut and washer, how does the flywheel keep from unscrewing itself from the shaft? I am afraid to start it before I find the answer to this question!
 
The weight needs to be torqued down like the stock nut. It has became your fly wheel nut.

Loosen the four set screws and torque it down using the ratchet tool that comes with the FWW. Then tighten the 4 set screws.

If you don't have that tool, don't ride it until you get one and torque the weight down to spec..
 
Me too, because I want to install one on my WR250 2010... too nervous for my technical riding here in Spain!! ;)

Thanks
 
I put one on my '06. A really effective fix for that nervous feeling in the technical or snotty stuff. For $100, you can't beat it.

I also put a G2 throttle on. It helps too.

With both together, you get really good traction control.
