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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Was told to stay away from replacing my oem piston in my 2010 wr 125 with a certain brand. That being said, can i please get some info from those in the know on what replacement kit to go with?

I was told to stay oem......

Thanks and sorry if this is a question that is easily answered in another topic somewhere else within the forum

I mainly use Vertex, ProX and Mitaka Pistons, barely used Wössner or Wiseco.

But since a few years i ve got loads of problems with ProX Pistons cracking, pins missing and so on...

But maybe its only me and all my friends...

(same luck with hotrods crankshafts...)
 
Mitaka and wossnor here both very good, love the look of namura think thats right but they dont do one for my bike, perhaps sling it in a yz when i get one.

What brands a no no?
 
my 125 had oem, pro x, then vertex for 180 hours, now mitaka for 30 odd, running very very well if that's the one you heard to avoid, namura I can't speak for, just heard bad things about them hence choosing mitaka
 
It really seems like Mitaka is a "UK thing" i came across them when i used to live over there.
Never seen them here in Germany unless i ordered a bulk of them for my bikes.

I also used their Conrod Kits and i highly recommend them- good Quality parts for a very low price !
 
Their japaniese suprised more havent heard of them that said wiseco i hadnt heard of before enrolling here on the cafe.
