I had an 86 CR125 with atac valve; It worked awesome on the low end when the atac chamber fell off, essentially giving me infinite volume, but with the chamber on it was fairly worthless.

So it's been a couple years, you must've had time to tear down the motor. What did you find out?

Looking good :cool:

How the hell is the front sprocket guard mounted?? It looks like it's just free-floating above the sprocket.

For this I'm going to form my own company. It will be a health insurance agency and you can pay me $100 a year for coverage. You will have to pay all of your expenses out of pocket, the same as if you had no health insurance, but you now have proof of insurance and you won't have to pay the $600+ ta...

I think the efi conversion has the most potential on a supermoto or street legal 500. The only hurdle I see for ANY efi setup is output power of the lighting coil. As soon as someone starts making the eline kits (or something similar) that gives us 200 watts they'll be a new topic called "EFI C...

Sounds like you want to try out your a/f conversion before getting all the mounts in. You could do it and putt around with everything else nice n tight, but as soon as you crank it wide open there will be lots of stress on the cylinder mounts. Worst case scenario: cylinder rips right off the case an...

I'll be making a muffler, that does not need packing, later in the year - purely mechanical baffling. I've got together with a mate who's a thermodynamics engineer, and done some research, and we are confident that we can do a muffler, that still provides the stinger effect, that will not harm the ...

Hey bearorso, can you post some pictures of the long quiet muffler, both the external and internals? I don't think we have anything like that in the USA, but I could build it if I had a few pics.

Small update: I tried out a 45 pilot and the engine didn't like that. Went to a 50 and it's idling ok, but doesn't feel much different from the 60. Might try a 52 or 55 later. I also messed with the needle position, which didn't help much for that choppy feeling while cruising. I'm thinking that it ...

You should get a new float valve for the carb if it is constantly leaking through the overflow and your float height is set correctly. The vibrations kill them quickly on a 500. I had the same problem.

You need a new choke too if it doesn't click when you pull it up. Have you tried cleaning it yet?

The only thing I don't like about ebay is the automated lowest offer.

example:

buy it now for $100
or Make Offer

I make offer for $40 and it gets rejected less than a second later :roll:
