  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 Wiring on new to me 2009 WR 250

I figured out that my bike had a CR ignition on it. I ended up buying an entirely new WR ignition and just finished the installation and started it for the first time this past weekend. I now have a yellow wire and am trying to figure out which lights I'm going to go with.
Thanks for all the info.
 
Great read here. Learned a lot about my recently acquired '08 WR250 wiring. Id like to see if I can run a dual filament bulb on the rear, (hydraulic brake switch). I noticed an available RED female connector under the seat? Can this be done with the OEM tail light?
 
I tried the bulb on my 09. Kept breaking the filaments due to vibration I assume.

I went with an ascerbis LED with rechargeable battery and switch from Rocky Mtn ATV and all has worked fine since.
 
I installed a Polisport incandescent light on the front and a LED on the back with the hydraulic switch on the master cylinder of the rear brake. I pulled power from the Yellow wire coming out of the regulator (no rectifier on my 06 WR250). It runs well, it dims down on idle, but otherwise is working fine. The LED's work fine with AC. Can't wait to take it out, it was not a harsh winter, but itchy to get out anyway. Hope all your problems have been solved.
