Re: Been awhile

Brother nothing, you have to go to Facebook to chat with any old school peeps. The websites are dead. I check in every six months or so to crickets.

Re: New cr500 owner road registered and in UK. Tuning tips

pretty vague description of what you want to do so I will give you the easy answer. Call Roosty, or PM him. He owns this site, he is around on facebook CR500 sites and he runs a machine shop in Canada. He knows everything about these motor and has most everything you could want in stock to make you ...

Re: Wiseco std size forged piston cylinder clearance

Hit up blownbillybob, every piston will vary a little....I guess you could just slap something together but for a motor that will last years and years I'd just do it right. Send the jug to Bill, he will size it properly with the proper bore measuring equipment that will make sure it isn't tapered or...

Re: 1989 CR500 R/H crankcase cracked

I think most will say run that 38. For me on my trail ridden bike I like the stock carb jetted right out of the book and it runs perfect and consistant for me always...but most don't have the same experiences as I do with the stock carb. My snow bike and my sand bike both run 39's and work well.

Re: Rhino's AF rides

Rode a good one with some of the boys last weekend. We rode up to the top of Mount Patterson in the sweetwaters. Some pretty cool singletrack with a bunch of fairly deep water crossings. Mostly smoother flowing type singletrack...not as much of a rock pounding but fairly technical. I rode my XR agai...

Re: Rhino's AF rides

Haven't been here in a while. So here is my update. Last year right before Christmas while out riding my AF with a group of guys I went down pretty hard and flew into a pile of rocks. I was able to get myself back to my truck and drove home to start healing. A few weeks later I went to Hoonfest. I r...

Re: What's your personal point of view about Los Angeles?

The frame in most US states is titled and on motorcycles is titled with a motor number on the pink as well. It's up to you if you need a title or not.

I think we paid $2700 for it if memory serves, it is very very clean....but the street legal part is Nevada, not sure how that all works in California. Check with Bob, he was selling his and street legal in CA.
