     WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st Cross

  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 What did you do to your Husky today?

Today I straightened the radiator and brace that I bent yesterday. And I ordered the hand guard mount that I broke off yesterday. Awesome ride yesterday!!:cheers:
 
clean bike is with the fork upgrade as we say "upside down forks" in the uk, dirty bike was with original forks,

Old style for a four stroke I adapted. I had taken the LHRB setup off of it to put on my TM450. Gonna have to learn how to use my right foot again. I attempted to setup the rear brake for both LHRB an foot brake, but I cracked the master cylinder being to heavy handed with the tap! Don't have a long enough brake line inhouse for a direct LHRB....yet! But, then again, you might not have been asking me!

original question was which way, was just curious :rolleyes:
 
2000 WR250 rear master cylinder let go over a 4 day ride...not much fun riding descents with no rear brake - anyone know the particular part #'s for the rear master kit or equivalent KTM version?

there was a recent post on using a Nissin part for a brembo master
pretty sure Nissin is Brembo under license or a good copy, the parts seem nearly identical
 
I have the old forks and matching wheel, maybe if I get a few more parts over here you guys can club together for shipping :) always happy to help out husky boys!

ohmygewd - check out my post on my recent rear master cylinder rebuild - http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/19...cylinder-rebuild-kit-found.80244/#post-530232. Brembo and Nissin are very different and I don't think there is any connection or "under license" as others have mentioned. The only thing that is the same was the diameter of the cylinder size - 12.7MM if I recall.
 
Finally got rid of the oem chain grinder...errr...guide

Fit was a little funky, but works. Had to take the dremel to the small piece that goes into the hanger on the swingarm. Came with new bolts and nyloc nuts :thumbsup:
This TMD version fits right or left drive, only 1 long bolt used, loctite the small bolt! Unused bolt hole looks shite, gonna' mod that too. Had a quick 1 hour ride and no prob's.

:cheers:
 
Put my Rekluse back in for an upcoming "tough" race. I figure anything that can help me out is a bonus.

Also put an FBF clutch basket in while I had the side cover off.

Handle bar risers, 13t front sprocket, fork bleeders, new clutch cable msr raptor lever, regina chain
New pads front n rear, de cluttered wiring loom by removing unneeded indicator wiring and dash power supply etc, new piston and 93 cylinder again.
Oh and will be cleaning her ready for a beasting every where.
Gotta love the 360 tough ol gal.
 


Wired up some lights on the 300 tonight. Figured I didnt like riding down in Baja without them. I decided on running a lithium battery so I can turn everything on-off when needed and if the bike dies, the lights wont shut off and put me into the trees like some other husky I have did (TE511) :thumbsdown:

I went the "lets not spend any money route" so I chopped up my OE headlight to fit my 511 fender a little better. Something I'm sure I'll regret later...
