I still have the 84 CR500 head/cylinder and the 83 CR480 head/cylinder for sale. That money will go into parts for my 500...

1. Set bolt for swing arm pivot. adjust for chain alignment 2. Check pipe fitment ( especially pipe outlet position. Clock motor as needed) 3. Check airbox fitment. Close is ok. Pipe fitment is more important. 4. Mod / Replace cradle as needed. Sweet. I did come up with another set back later last ...

YZ250 piston question
I did a topend on my 250 a few weeks ago. Rod felt good up and down but a good amount of side to side, I was told this is ok? Just making sure. Ok my real question. When going through this motor I was in a hurry and did it in a dimly lit area. I know better but it is what it is. But I finished, she ...

Asteriod: That would be awesome! But shipping from Aussie would be expensive. If you are serious, see what it would cost to ship to Eligin Tx and I'll pay shipping. Thanks for all the positive feedback! Getting the seat upholsterd right now. I am trying to find something to attach the brake stay to ...

Thanks for the replies! I have still been working on it as much as possible. I'm modifying the steering stops to work with the different triple clamps. I also scored a GSXR steering stabilizer that should work no problem. I was looking at the side of the bike and I'm that with the changes in the geo...

More progress pics, seems the closer to getting done the longer it is taking. I am missing all kinds of little specialty bolts, seals and inserts for the brake stay. Pain in the ass, gotta get a big list together and leave work early and head to fastenal sometime next week. Did get the new steering ...

Cable operated choke for PJ
Has anyone ever seen a cable operated choke for the stock PJ Carb? I was going to run a bar mounted choke lever on my tracker project. I thought I remembered seeing this setup on Baja 500's for letting off the throttle after long wide open sections. I will eventually step up to a pwk, is there one a...

I started skinning the rear section. Got some pictures of the progress I'll upload. The expansion chamber has got me stumped. The stock pipe doesn't fit with the air-cooled cylinder. I made some cuts in it and have tried to make some changes by twisting sections around and it was totally not working...
