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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

All 2st upgrading 04 tank/plastics to 06 +

I think its been asked or done on here before
Do the 06 - 08 plastics an tank fit up to the 04 frame ? if seat swap also done
cheers
 
Its really a tough swap going newer. The tank bolts on with a through bolt that your frame doesn't have and the front tank holders/bumpers are in the wrong spot. I much prefer the older 04 set up anyway. It carries the fuel much lower and the seat height is at least 1/2" lower. It also comes with a 2.9 gal tank stock. I also like how slim the bike is with the older tank/seat. I would re-cover the seat though. The stock seat cover is really stiff/slick.
 
Thanks Walt - I missed out on a wr I was bidding on
and I am thinking of updating a Cr125 04 that I rode which has a strong motor and is selling cheap . You are right the seat is crap and turns up at the tank
The owner has spray painted the tank black and the plastics red and guards white :banghead: I wonder how long that will last - I quite like the old school yellow

Does the IMS larger tank for a TE fit? Is that what KevinTE250 has ?
 
Yes all the 2T 2000- 04's use the same tank and plastic setup. Get the IMS 3.4 gal for the WR250. It is a really nice tank and doesn't add to the width much at all. I believe the 4T tanks will fit but I am not sure on that.
