  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Stock size tires for replacements or go to a 130 in rear

I'm going to get some new tires for my WR300, stock is a 140, but there are a better selection of 130's and a few bucks less too.... Also what about the front, I remember reading somewhere someone believe the stock from size 90/90 is to skinny... I'm looking at S12xc as a replacement...

My suspension was dropped off this morning for a rebuild, revalave and spring replacement....
New rubber and the proper suspension, the bike will be even better for his season....
 
I put on a 120/100 and it pulled it fine. Although with my 14 countershaft sprocket my wheel was a little to close and ate up my shock protector
 
110/100x18 and 130/80x18 are the same size as is 120/100x18 and 140/80x18.


I will have to disagree with you on that one. I purchased the tire and the 120/100X18 was sitting right next to a 110/100 and was definitely larger. This is the first time I have had the tire eat the mudflap.
 
different manufacturers measure their tires in ways that confuse the dimmensions as far as comparison
wow, that reads odd, well the point is sizes can be not so straight forward
some measure the casing others measure who knows what

I've tried many tire, the two i liked best for the rear were the S12xc and MT16.
The fronts I liked the Bridgestone http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/2/29/392/10194/ITEM/Bridgestone-ED11-Enduro-Front-Tire.aspx
and the Pereli http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/2/29/392/13824/ITEM/Pirelli-Scorpion-XCMS-Front-Tire.aspx
compared the the S12xc front

yes, 110/100x18's are smaller than 120/100x18's
what I am saying is 110/100x18's and 130/80x18's are the same (110mm carcass = 130mm tread width).
As are 120/100x18's and 140/80x18's (120mm carcass = 140mm tread width).

OOps, I get ya now
 
My 120/100 rubbed because I installed a 14 tooth countershaft sprocket on the stock chain. Had to move the rear wheel up a bit.
