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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

with this 2013 WR300 I bought I got an unopened box in it were an aray of jets and needles plus a #5 carby slide , Cananyone tell me if this an improvement on standard or don't worry about it
 
If your bikes running fine then don't worry, if your bike is rich and blubbery everywhere then the number five will lean up as it's got more of a cut out for the air to get past.

I think
 
Yes, the #5 slide is leaner than a #4. The #5 is what came stock in my 2011 300, however the entire carburetor was jetted incorrectly so I had to get all the correct jets and slide before I could even take the bike for a ride. The correct slide seemed to be the #4. Also went down to a #35 on the pilot jet, but finally put in the JD Racing kit which also changed out the needle jet, the needle and allowed me to actually run a larger main jet.
 
I tried the Jd kit with red needle on 2 with the #4 slide and it went fine but me being me thought I would try the #5 slide (being the leaner slide) I thought I would try the red needle on 3 with the Gnarly/ powercore 2 pipe combo , certainly gives it some thump I don't know if its going to be good in the bush but I reckon its going to be a good MX setting
