Im dead tired and my brain is pretty fried but im pretty sure your need for larger jets is due to porting and a 41mm carb. The bigger the carb the poorer the signal. Plus the higher top end the porting the less efficient at low RPM which also requires more fuel to compensate...

When I saw 720, this is the first thing I thought of....

:D
The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

got her fixed dont know exactly what it was, but i fliped the clutch rod and changed the springs around , and now it just barley fully disengages with me using 2 fingers and the other 2 in between the bars and lever :D
( the smaller fingers between the bar and lever, and index / middle fingers pulling)
i think it this was caused by honda having lower QC standards for the real open bikes because they arent sold under their name anymore :evil:
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

I would still get a MATCHING set of springs just to ensure even clutch wear.

Clyde, you're an idiot
look at the space from the bore to the stud holes, then from the stud holes to the outside. look at glens other pic with the LA Sleeve package. Then call Nick Jr at La Sleeve and ask him about it

roostiuos i think you may be the idiot. that copper gasket was strategically placed there for the "photo shoot". maybe glen will pull it off and snap a pic, if your still not convinced.

remember "Fueltech USA" having the 600cc engine, it didnt require case trenching, the 720 does

i'm not going to argue about THAT engine, but the 720s are out there. the heads in both pictures arent the same head either, one is an N sitting with the bottom end, ones an R thats been cut for a larger bore

I will venture to say to make a piston that big work glen used straight 8mm studs instead of the 10mm/8mm Honda used.

That squish band is huge on that head it must not be a high reving motor.


My +6mm stroked 500 has no spacer under the cylinder but the new alum sleeve has the exhaust port raised 3mm and the piston pops out the top.

we do stuff like that all the time, we took a 4 cyl engine from a massey 101 and doubled the cid of it, also made it rev 3500 rpm, more than double the goveronor speed.
first thing you need to realize is that its only money

Here's a cylinder that I just got the sleeve in and am getting ready to bore, It has the larger studs and moved with h-coils to accomidate the larger sleeve and bigger bore. This is 1 of the different heads we use.Image[/img]Image[/img]

highjack away it dont bother me at all, nice work glen, whats a mild port job and head reshaping worth???,
or roosty do you have more info on your porting, not specs, but dyno sheets if the low end is that much better i might be interested but it have to be a big improvement for me to go with a low mid powerband...

glen I got an idea for a guy like you, its expensive though, aerocharge a 500 :twisted:

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwqwFjWQ ... r_embedded[/youtube]

it builds boost at high idle WITH NO LOAD, and dosent restrict flow on the top end, and it dosent need oil

you would be smoking R1 climbers on a 500 that weighs half as much :cool:

only downside is $2500 :D
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.
