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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I have an 01 WR 125 and last weekend it died from loss of spark on the trail. I replace the magneto because it had a short and I thought that was the problem but today when I installed the new one, I still have no spark. I can literally hold my hand in the end on spark plug not feel any electricity or zap. I am thinking maybe its the CDI but instead of wasting another $90 can anyone give me some insight on anything else it could be?
 
Throw a new spark plug boot on it for the $5 it costs. Make sure the lead has good contact.

Does it only die when warm? My brother had that on a cr250 was really hard to diagnose being so intermittent. But after some multi meter work and a best guess it turned out to be the cdi.
 
Would even start, one of the ground was not connected properly... Bike flat out rips now, I have a 2014 WR 250 and enjoy riding this old 125 more because I can push it to the limits.
