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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Race FUEL?

Thats right! Another stupid noob question brought to you by me! Anyways, this TXC250 I bought is a 13:6:1 compression stock. So...... my question is can I just mix a 50/50 of 110 and 93 octane? That should bring me around 103 octane. But......... do I have to run it? We have 93 octane here in the St.Louis area, but I don't know if thats ok or not? I don't mind running race fuel since I had to feed my KTM and Honda atv's with race fuel.
 
Race gas is for 2 strokes. All the 4 strokes I've ever owned in the last 4 years (10) ran or run great on 93 pump (USA R+M/2) octane. Don't waste your money.
 
Im only concerned since its a 13:6:1 compression. Seems tad high to run 93 octane. Running high octane isn't too expensive for me. I can get Renegade 110 straight off the pump for 5.99 a gallon. So I pretty much run all our engines on it since it has lead. Its a little easier on the valve train. Especially if you have Ti valves.
 
It was recommended here that a bit of race gas would help keep things cooler and better in the long run.... I know it helps my engines run stronger
 
smart move on using the race gas. i avoid any ethenol fuel for my bike. life of the pump gas is so short . i think you will find that the rest of the fuel system will last longer and perform better with REAL fuel.. IMHO
