The sudco catalog shows what they do for their jetting, Ja, it's evil lean. Rule of thumb is to start with a main jet of the same number as exhaust degrees, I'd go 176 for a starter on any stock jug 500. The pilot relates to the slide, if it's a 6 slide it's probably a 50 pilot , if it's a 5 slide ...

Well, my PWK has arrived, and despite pre-purchase enquiries to the vendor regarding Sudco's jetting (to which the response was it has model specific jetting from the factory, whatever the fuck that means !) it arrived with, get this, a 160 main, a 60 pilot, a DGH needle (although the box is marked ...

Thanks Kevin. I couldn't believe how much difference it made to the vibes, the thing is like silk now !

Unfortunately my homeowners insurance would not cover the bikes. I have been selling off my race car stuff to do this. :cry: but I'm moving on and when I hit the lottery I'm going racing again. I got a custom insurance policy for this bike that covers every dollar I put in it.I lost about 6k on my ...

That thing looks the tits, mate , really nice. I'm guessing then that the insurance paid out coz you never got the stolen one back ?

. . . . another "for sale" on the first post . . . !

Yeah mate, but plans have changed a bit now, I'll be on my '09 Berg, and we are only staying in Kal for 1 day now. We won't have time for a ride, but I'd still like to catch up and buy ya a beer ?

Thanks Bob, I have that wiring diagram, and that's what I set the harness up by. The queries I raised are where the actual harness varies from that diagram (ie, the 2 coil leads rather than 1, and the mysterious red/yellow and black connector, and the red terminal block that is apparently partially ...

Thanks Kuma,
I actually AM a member on the christian site, but have visited it maybe twice . . . . I didn't think of that, thanks man.

I am finally getting around to fitting the Service Honda ignition stator and wiring that I bought off a hoon on here, and I am in need of some guidance / clarification please. I was hoping that someone out there with a genuine Service Honda with lights etc could take a close look at their bike and p...

I have parts headed your way, instead of 3 shipments I'd like to group them all if one of you Australian boys is willing to distribute them within the country. I'll know what I have sorted on Monday, same with return freight, I have pieces needing to come back here also. I can do that, if it'll hel...

Welcome fella. Last time I tried to misbehave at Lancelin on an "apparently" unregistered bike, I had the Gestapo swarming all over me while it was STILL ON THE TRAILER ! ! ! All was cool once I had shown them that it was in fact full A class rego, but Jesus, they were on me like stink on ...

Nice work on the Berg other, does that have the slanted engine? last time I heard anything they have gone back to standard configuration. I have a gen4 af, I just had to get a few hassels worked out but it seems now I am well back on track, and now my only problem seems to be my fitness. LOL to muc...

For trail work stock everything works pretty good.

Agreed, but I'd qualify that by saying gear for the terrain, and fit a Rekluse. It is THE trail weapon of choice for everything except desert. I'm a recent convert, but they rock !

Actually, with the little girly stabs he was taking at the kickstart, and legs that look like Cheese Strawz, I thought that was gonna end up a whole lot nastier than it did ! The boy got off light, I'd say . . .

when my chinese rads hit the pipe i grabbed a hammer and went to town, surprisingly they were pressure tight after the downside to chinese rads is there friggin heavy, i think it was a pound heavier per rad or something like that A pound ! Fuck, mine were less than 200 grams per side heavier, and s...

Hope was O.P was a complete success other so you can keep it on 2 wheels for many years to come. I very much enjoy reading and seeing where you are up to with your build, so please when you have time keep the thread going. I dont have the skills or know how to do what you are doing but its great se...

Photobucket has finally finished smoko, and got it's ass back to work ! https://bannedcr500riders.com/images/auto/8c581801c70ae781d684fb635cf9068f.jpg https://bannedcr500riders.com/images/auto/dbf32f8b84028f9264244f24ea5d7109.jpg https://bannedcr500riders.com/images/auto/3f14098b37ff4fc077f907d1ae4c...

G'day to anyone actually interested in this build thread, I finally got back to the overdue business of building this thing ! Was laid up for a week or so following spinal op, but then straight back to the busiest period at work I can ever remember. Just finalised that contract, and so now have a we...

Looks like some of the build will be tough to figure out, but you can do it!! At least I hope you can I'd love to see a YZ conversion. I wonder if you can get an intake that has an angle to it pushing it to the left? If you can't buy one, you can always make one. My first engine conversion back in ...

I think everyone involved appreciates what you tried to do here, and the fact that you stuck with it when it went pear-shaped. Personally, I would rather thank you than hang you.

True that ! At least all you're gonna get in Oz is a belting with a baseball bat, and that shit don't kill you while you still have a helmet on !

Looks to be about as tight as the equivelent Gen 4 Honda AF conversion. Certainly there ain't much room on those either ! If it was me doing it, and accepting that the cradle needed modding, I wouldn't concern myself with the lower mount, I would set the whole thing up on the swing arm bolt and chai...

I know what would have been said in Australia !

You guys don't know how lucky you are over there . . . . an 18 month old KXF450 that looks pretty choice, for four-and-a-half grand. Shit !
