  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 WR250 / 300 Alloy Gear Lever

Just read an article about Ty Davis's WR300, it said that he made a billet lever for his bike, maybe if we all beg........
I ordered a lever from DirtBikeBitz, it listed it as a 2 stroke lever but then i relized that it could be for a 125:confused::lol:
I might have a WR125 lever for sale

Zip-Ty Racing has a shifter tip that will work as well, it's not listed to fit the WR but i emailed them and they said it will fit

Just got my shifter from Dirt Bike Bitz, it's the right one for the WR250/300, cast alum arm and a machined tip made by RFX hardware.
Looks pretty nice, i'll post a pic if i get a chance:thumbsup:
Merry Christmas
 
Same Dimensions as stock, looks like a alum version of the stock one.
The tip is awesome, I think the shifting problems are from the shifter tip?

Can you post a pic of lever on the bike? I'd be interested to know how much clearance you have between lever and clutch cover and how far on to the gear change shaft the lever is fitted?

Thanks..Dave
 
Anybody close to Hammerhead Designs / www.hdmoto.com as to where they'd be able to drop a shifter off and see if they have one that would work, or be willing to build some?

They make some for some pretty rare bikes, so they might be interested in making one for the WR.

AIR? Do you have a address for them? I googled it but i couldn't find any dirt bike stuff

It´s a Swedish company, garage24.se is the mailaddress. They have the AIR stuff. I think parts are made somewhere in Europe. Gear lever is made of forged alloy.

Hi Guys,
Newbie here. That shifter looks nice. Might be something to p/u to compliment a little project I'm working on. Not to hijack this thread but I'm going to make a new clutch cover for my WR250 because my shifter put a small crack in mine. I'm just trying to gage interest if I make one. I'm thinking about making it thicker where I can. Any other suggestions? I'll post pix in a new thread when I do so you can see that I didn't make it with a hammer and a cold chisel.:D I'm a machinist with full access to CNC mills etc...
I'm busy rebuilding the WR, so it might be a month or so before I've got something ready.

The shifter doesn't have much clearance but the back of where the tip is is flatter surface than stock.
I'll try to get a pic up here in the next couple of days, now if you'll excuse i'm going for a ride today:applause:
 
I just received my shifter from Dirt Bike Bitz. It does look like an aluminium version of the stock shifter, but the tip is 15mm longer than the standard one.

Yeah, it's a good looking, well made looking part. I was just hoping the arm would be just a tad longer. The stock one seems like it's too short for me. Too close to the footpeg or something.
 
I just raised mine up so i can get my foot under it and hits on the proper spot on my boot, i have size 12 feet, i try to stand most of the time that's why i raised it but afteri had ridden the bike for awhile i would have left it there anyway. I think it's one notch higher than the pic.
 
The shifter is great, the tip is way better than stock, I was always slipping off the stock tip(sounds dirty) It is about the same as the stocker as far as flex and it is very close to the case
