No pictures yet. So I placed a ad looking for blown up KTM's (I was looking for winter project) Within a couple of weeks I acquired a KTM 250 XCW rolling chassis, no engine. 2 days later I came across a 1990 CR500 engine. Now the fun begins. I decided that I want to build a newer looking KTM with a ...

My KX500's had PWK 39's on them and they measured 39.5mm.

The issue I'm having is the forks, maybe I will tear them off and revalve them myself (since I'm off the bike for 12 more weeks) I have a CR500 in a 02 450 frame and do not like it at all (suspension is brutal, even after 2 revalves). So I have been on the hunt for another rolling chassis (prefer a ...

No dice on picking this one up cheap. He wanted too much and was keeping the forks.

I did end up buying some blue wheels for my KTM's.

Its steel

I have a CR500 in a 02 450 frame and do not like it at all (suspension is brutal, even after 2 revalves). So I have been on the hunt for another rolling chassis (prefer a KTM because I have a 525, 450, 350). I'm pretty sure it won't work. But I'm going to look at a 2010 Husaberg FX450 today. Motor i...

Ended up with a 2003 CRF450 in a vehicle deal/trade.
It needs a cheap/working stator assembly. Pulser coil is damaged.

Thanks

I have a 02 CRf 450 framed 500 and really enjoyed building it and the final product. Looking at building another AFC and have a line on 2 bikes 05 CRf 250 ($300 cheaper and has a blown engine to part) 07 CRf 450 (no motor to part out) So, the 250 would be cheaper to build. Would the newer suspension...

This is the 3rd season on mine and I like them.
I always use a new tires and uses about 1/2 cup of slime as well.

I had a PSI pipe for my 89 CR250 and it worked fine, better then the stocker. Give it a try

Clean weld areas. Just prior to welding (oxidation)

Have a set of clean (aluminum only) tools for welding AL as well, files, brass wire brushes, non-lint rags. Do not use brake cleaner for cleaning (do research why)

Currently waiting for the effin snow to melt. (snowing again) The other day, a guy I barely know (friend of a friend), said to me. Hey man, i bought a CRF450, traded in my 06 CRF250 I said what did they give you for your 250 He said $550 I said "holy $h1t, why" It was blown up and thats al...

Two thumbs up (unless you are like my uncle, one thumb and a stub) Makes tire installation a lot easier, holds the bead down. If you change a lot of tires or put on a few ice racing tires these things are worth it. I just installed a set of Marcel Fournier two way ice tires last nite and these helpe...

FYI so everyone knows. The man that has built/designed the MF44 tire has nothing to do with MF44 anymore. His website is www.marcelfournier.ca, his tires will not be legal in AMA events. Uses the lagonacross for 19 rears Uses a Motoz for the 18 rears (just got my set last week) He uses 1 1/5 screws ...

Mikuni carb with many many patterned little hole drilled in the bell of the carb in a swirl design. I tried one on my 96 250 for oval ice racing. it was a mother fucker to jet correctly, but once it was jetted correctly that thing would rip. everything affected it, humidity/Bar. pressure/atmospheric...

I think the broker fee is waved if you have it shipped priority air. It ends up costing the same, but you get your parts in a 2-3 days after being shipped. I agree that the UPS thing is total bullshit. I hate those pricks.

I used a 95or 96 subframe Airbox is 92 to 94 ish Sub frame needed minimal bending to get it to work. Seat fits OK. I need to re-cover it (Seat bends up at the tank and wrinkles the cover) Been riding this one all winter and love it. This thing is a blast on the ice. I have a 05 KTM 525 set up for th...

Tore down 500 and the 450, I determined that i would need a another swingarm. Picked up a 03 from ebay ($30 + shipping). Bought $68 in 6061 metal.

I bought a frame from Eastern states to have it shipped to Calgary Alberta (2-3 yrs ago). End result was that UPS and customs totally fucked me over (I think UPS started the pile up). Long story short - I told the shipper to label frame as (Used Bike Parts), he did not, he labeled it “Motorcycle fra...

Sorry about that I just seen the ad and figured, what the hell, forward the info to you and help a fellow hoon out. Its a SOB here in alberta trying to sell/buy bikes. Five yrs ago I was selling a 92 CR 500 and it was listed for 2500 (low hrs on it, 9.5 out 10 shape) Every one said "way to high...

Hi there Found this ad this morning. A guy in Fort Mcmurry Alberta is looking for a cr500 engine Ben @ 780-838-7555 Rather then tell him it's on the Banned site. I thought it might be easier for you to contact him. http://edmonton.kijiji.ca/c-cars-vehicles-motorcycles-motorcycle-parts-accessories-CR...

GST, RIV fee, and duty. (as stated above)

I have had a 500 since 91, raced 250-500 MX (intermediate) from 91-94

500 for really tight single track is tough going. Like Caseyracing222 stated, a 250 is better for trail riding

But a 500 for desert, fire roads, ice, they are fricken awesome.
