I used to be a big fan of 927 at 40:1 but after having sticking rings / power valve on my KTM 300 and decomp valve on my 500 I had to say good bye and moved to Amsoil Saber 80:1. I been running everything at this ratio and its super clean, all trail ridden so maybe not the best conditions for 927 an...

Bit late now but I had the same issue with my '87 radiators being full of magnesium after the water pump / clutch housing imploded. I jammed a potato in the bottom radiator outlet filled it up with coca cola and left them soak for 3 days. Flushed out with the hose and you have nice clean radiator tu...

This is what I've used,Atomic brand steel manifold. Just replace the supplied o-rings with nirtrile o-rings and put a fat 0-ring where the pipe butts up against the manifold to reduce metal on metal contact. No more leaks :D https://bannedcr500riders.com/images/auto/0f0483df79de87bf103beba33e1b984e....

Like 2strokeforever says the 250 ignition is the MAN. I rode my bike for the first time with a 250 ign in the bush last weekend and I'm still raving about it!

Never any intention to piss him off or put down his purchase. :oops: In fact I'm sure he knows way more about cr500's than me and is more than capable of restoring it. If he had inspected the bike,he may have thought twice about buying it. The seller did not disclose all the visible faults,his is aw...
