Received it 2 weeks ago... A Mr Walter Bean will be coming south this weekend to show me how to install...

Here are some PICS:

Neat. Let us know more when you get it installed.

 

[rockdancer]

Cool - thanks
I wouldnt mid seeing a pic of the inlet port on opposite side to pic taken to see how much is left and if its lowered much

 

[dartyppyt]

Great, Keep us posted! Bet that thing will roll!

You guys keep going, someday you'll be using a 55 gal drum as a piston.

Keep us posted on your start up, jetting and ride reports.

Thanx!

Yes plese let us know how it goes and what you think of the kit. Every time I think I'm going to sell my 08 CR125 I ride it again for the "last" time, then.... I decide to keep it becasue it so light and FUN LOL. I do want a lttle more low/mid and this 167 may be the ticket. If you don't mind what does it all cost? Thanks, John.

What year of cylinders can be bored to a 167?

 

[Bill502]

Your making me jealous, mine won't be done for a few more weeks. Do you need to install both base gaskets with it?
What carb are you going to run with it?

 

[Motosportz]

Do you need to install both base gaskets with it?
What carb are you going to run with it?

one is a gasket and one is a spacer plate.

 

[Bill502]

Ok, thanks Kelly

 

[Motosportz]

Ok, thanks Kelly

I believe the spacer plate is necessary because the piston used is slightly taller.

the carby is a Keihin 38...

I don't thin the new cylinders can be bored that large.. but I think you can buy an older one and it will fit the newer motors

 

[dartyppyt]

Does anyone know what years of old ones work?

 

[john01]

Walt knows for sure but I think it has to be from 06 back.

Mabe that is why my EG 144 pings on premium. I didn't use it.

I used only the thick base gasket.

OTOH, my squish is .050 which is not too tight.

It seems to haul on 50% race fuel so I run that.

 

[wallybean]

All 98 to 07 cylinders work. 08 CR cylinders do not but 08 WR cylinders do.

so it's overbore and a little oversquare ?

 

[rockdancer]

Walt - I am probably the only one on here that has an 08 wr so its not really all that relevant but I looked into it and found a Husky releaase that said the 08 WR also has the 5 port cylinder - same as CR not and the older 7 port head

I still have the older 7 port FBF 125 head ready to go on this weekend
If I dont like it better than stock head It may be up for sale or converted to a 167
I think its $585 + freight for a 167 kit from George
Not sure what included -
I assume the valves and head mods are included ? - problem is if you ever want to return it to 125 you need two sets of valves and head - so I believe

 

[wallybean]

George does not modify your stock 125 head. The Mahle piston is a pure flat top and with the spacer and stock gaskets installed the squish is very close. He uses your power valves and cuts them to match the cylinder. If you do not have power valves for the 7 transfer port cylinder you will need to find some. They are significantly different to the power valves from the newer 5 transfer port cylinders.

The 167 is way over square and I resemble that remark.

 

[john01]

So Walt are you still riding around with yours? How does it compare with the stock Husky 144 kit?
