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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
Just an update......might be the same sprocket as Aprilia 450 / 550. Jt sprockets p/n jtf707.
I'll do some more homework and get back to you.
Cheers mate, but I'm looking for swm rs500 front sprocketBoth Renthal and Sunstar make CS sprocket for your 165, much better quality than JT.
FYI: Renthal part # 307-520-13GP (13 tooth) fits Italian CR/WR 125 back to 1998.

Sorry, missed that part...nevermindCheers mate, but I'm looking for swm rs500 front sprocket
Righto. Did some measuring this morning.
Swm countershaft : 25mm OD, 21.5mm Core dia.
Swm sprocket has a core dia of 22mm, width 11mm.
(These dimensions are actual measurements not specs)
JT give the dimensions of the aprilia sprocket as 25mm x 22.2mm x 10.9mm.
What do we think, crossover or not?
Ps I will be contacting my swm dealer tomorrow regarding price, options and availability.
