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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Is it ok if i use a B8ES spark plug as an emergency spare?

Rather then the B8EG fitted?

Only difference is electrode type, one is a standard plug other is racing plug.

Havent had time to get another plug and got one of these spare and goin for a ride tomorrow, my jetting appears rich and its been on this plug for 300klms and im worried it may foul up and was going to use the B8ES just in case.

Thoughts?

Thanks
 
As far as I know you should be okay.. I have a 2007 Husqvarna WR250 and use a BR8EG (the "R" being a resistor plug).. Some say I can substitute
with a BR8ES.. But I have heard some say that their bike would not run with a BR8ES and had to use a BR8EG (hope that made sense).. My advice
is try it at home before you leave.. Good luck and cheers.. :cheers:

So do I and they are $1.99
I paid less for a BR8EG.. Paid $57.50 for 42 plugs.. So $1.37 each (they are $6.95 plus tax for each one in Canada)..
Got enough plugs for me and few friends for probably life now (good thing four of us ride Husqvarna WR250/CR250)..

Got another smokin deal just the other day.. Paid $18.45 for 8 X SKF 63005-2RS (ø25xØ47x16 mm rear hub bearing)..
So $2.31 each (they are $36.00 or more plus tax for each one in Canada)..
