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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

No but since I'm getting the 144 kit I think I send the carb out now while I'm waiting. I'll give RB a call on Monday and see if they evn do the stock carbs.

John,

You are going to want to try the carb before the 144 install. That way, you will see the low end improvement with the carb alone.
 
I think Mr woodschick just had it done to his TMXX

Yep! Eric got his TMX done, and they even cut the slide for free, and he's loving it. He's only ridden it once since he got it back, but he says he can now ride it effectively in the lower RPM's. As a clue to how happy he is with it, this was the first ride on his WR that I did not hear him utter the words "Well, it ain't no GasGas..." The Husky had very big shoes to fill and for the first time Eric had a huge smile on his face after riding it

We're going to throw it on my 144 at some point and see how it goes, although I am really happy with the way my 144 is running right now with Walt's old Keihin on it.
 
To late for that Matt the cyl. & head have been shipped so I'm gonna skip all the small steps and go right to the top! I can't to get it all done and see how it feels.
 
Old thread, but I just had RB do the PWK on my 2012 WR144. It's amazing. Bike came with the TMX. Didn't like it. Had RB do his mods to the TMX... better, but not happy. Finally put a leftover KTM Air Striker on the 144... even better. Then did the full RB thing and it's just crazy how nicely this bike runs.

Ron does do amazing work!
 
John01 did you get the carb mods and 144 kit done. I have 2013 CR125 thinking of gettin the 38mm air Stryker with RB mods and then put a 144 kit on.
 
No I ended up running a 144 kit for a short time then went on to the WB165 with a Smart Carb; great combo. We did send my sons 2011 TM 250MX head and carb to RB and it was WAY WAY better than sock and we were able to run straight 93 gas. Ron does excellent work and a more than fair price.
 
I liked it. It had just a little more power every where over the 125. I'm 200 pounds so every little bit helps pull all this muscle around :rolleyes:. The WB165 was just so good if I had to do it over I'd for sure skip the 144 and go straight to the 165. Saying that I'd skip a 125 too for a 144 if the 165 wasn't an option.
