it was nice to see so many huskys at new blane an see them do so well. about half way through day one left rear shock blew out by the end of day the other...
I know they are hard to find but, I'm looking for a +.040" Wiesco piston for my I beam rod 125 motor. I cooked it at Barber in my last MX moto. If anyone knows...
I extended the brake arm 1" on my big hub brake using 6061 aluminum X 3/16" thick. That gave me a lot more leverage on that brake and about 25% more stopping...
Do you have any pics of this modification? if so, could you please post them. Also would this be legal for vintage or evo racing? I have a 1975 250cr and...
Marc, I think you have the wrong filter. The studs on my 1973 CR400 also measure 2 1/8" from were they come out of the air bell base. The cage inside my UNI...
Yes, my mod is legal for vintage as a "period mod" (that's what they did). If you are going to race Post Vintage, you could find a double leading shoe brake...
I did the same to my cr 400, i just cut the arm in the middle and added and inch and welded back together...you can also buy an "E-Z Pull and run it on the...
Hi Gang, I have a real good close up of my brake mod (more stop) but I can't figure out how to get it out of "my pictures" on to this E-mail. If anyone needs...
I'm looking for advice/opinions on acceptable leak down rates when pressurizing a 2 stroke. I've heard anything from It must hold 6 lb for 6 minutes to It must...
I think I have the picture of my brake mods in this mail now - I hope! Duane __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?...
A two gauge set up is easier to use. a "leakage" of 2% would be damn near perfect. acceptable is 5-6%, after that power loss starts to creep into the equation....
Hi Steve, I think what I heard from John L. at Vintage Husky was put in 5 pounds, and wait 5 minutes. If the leak-down is more than 2.5 - 3 pounds, your issue...
Yeah, it gets you to where you can actually feather the brake lever, start letting off a little, as you get close to the turning part of the corner. With the...
Stephan: The particular motor I am working on at this 5 minutes is a CZ 400 I acquired and am trying to get straightened out. I had a bad ignition side crank...
Thanks Carl: and congrats on your first ever moto win in the swamp that was Woodlands last race! The mighty "Carl Schuur Special" handled it just fine! ... ...
I have to say, Stephan IS a good mechanic. (Not You Soup) so believe him. Uncle Bill In a message dated 11/2/2007 11:04:46 A.M. US Mountain Standard Time, ...
Excellent! I KNOW I'm not a good mechanic - seems I'm only good at one thing (he said looking back ruefully at a trail of destruction left behind him...) and...
alrighty then, we have added information. the method you are using is not really a leak down test but a compressed air test. leak down refers to a cylinders...
Doesn't that put an extra load on the brake cable? Make sure you have a good cable when doing this modification. I think I'm gonna try it too. Thanks for the...
Looking to buy my son a bigger bike (as well as one for me) have seen a few 01 125's at decent prices. Anyone here know anything about them? Faults, things to...
<<Doesn't that put an extra load on the brake cable? Make sure you have a good cable when doing this modification. >> No, just the opposite, because of the...
A longer brake arm is like a longer wrench on a nut...you can achieve more torque with the same amount of pull force. So say, 20lbs of line tension will spread...
Lorin, we have a 04 CR125 and have had a real good time with it. Raced modern at Woodland, Albany and indoor at Salem with lots of riding at home. Felt guilty...
... Terry, You need to take the cover back off and look carefully at the kick start shaft mechanism. It sounds to me like you might have a couple of things...
