Looks great! What are you going to do for your rear shock? I wanted to put a new shock on my 85' but the way the frame is laid out you have to stick with a remote resovior. I would love to update to new forks and shock on my bike.

Thanks amigo! The pipe was sitting since and helped free up enough cash to rebuild my YZ250 motor so I can get back to spinning laps in the fall. Thanks agian for the kind words. 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 ...

Check your PM's

I'll do 150 for the pipe plus shipping. I can check on shipping tomorrow morning, I wouldnt think it would be more than 20 bucks. If it is I'll try and work with you to keep it reasonable.

I Have a DG Pipe for a 1984 CR500 in very good conition. Less that 1 hour on it and a 1983 CR480 cylinder and head in good condition. I bought it as a only having 1 bore on it but I never verified it and the project I bought it for never panned out. I greased the cylinder to keep it from rusting ...

Hey everyone! I ran across the other 2 stroke site I'm on. It is an ATAC style powervalve the guy is hoping to manufacture for a bunch of different bikes including the CR500. I dont know many of the details with it but you can see pics and hear his explanation here:

Dood, I rode a RD400 in highschool....

:wink:

Thats awesome! I havent been around here lately because I got balls deep into my RD400, now its my daily driver! Here is how it started:

Rebuilt motor, re did oil ...

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 ...

I know I am posting faster than ya'll are seeing this but did some more moving around and believe that I have it in there the best way, but it is tight. I am not sure be might even have to have removable mounts on one side but I cant tell about that yet.

All these pictures are with a bolt through ...

After finaglin' the cases in this frame I am having a hard time figuring out exactly how I would attack this. I have been looking at othe conversions and 4t cradles seem to have more room and it is more moving the "Y" than anything. When bolted together at the swingarm pivot it seems to be lined up ...

Upload them on photobucket, or you can email them to me and I'll post them up. tsh336@hotmail.com

Do you have a link to these pics? I have searched both sites and have not been able to come up with much.

What's up guys! Havent posted in a while but still lurk quite often. I got an RD400 and have kinda been messing around with that for a bit and have been doing a little dirt bikin'. Coming off a separated and dislocated shoulder injury right now. Anyways glad to see this place is still awesome.

My ...

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 ...

Hey guys, havent posted in a long time so I figured I would post a couple current pics. Im trying to get this thing done but I moved a couple months ago and my shed is still getting leveled and wired. Been a mess and have l been having to re buy bolts for this project and my yz that I have been ...

I do like the round silencers better, but this FMF one is starting to grow on me. Doesnt look too bad, and I am about to have to tighten my budget up so I am going into the "Just get it done" phase. Here are some more pics. I like to do a little and then stand back and look at it lol.

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 ...

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 ...

Like I said, I don't understand a lot of this information but I think it should work great for my application. I am planning on using some led enduring fog lights for head lights (2) or maybe one on all the time and a second for "high beam" an led brake/running, and a small led for the license Plate ...

2strokesforever, I am really interested in this setup. Do you have a part number or a place I can order one of those dc to dc converters?

Also I am electrically dumb, where would you wire this in, before the ground? maybe a simple diagram of how it works? This seems like a really great idea!

well I was pricing pwk's on ebay, is a 39mm the go to size or would a 38mm work? There seems to be a big price difference and I figure its because the 39 is the go to size. JW

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 ...

Get a DG pipe for a 84 CR500 it should work..

Thanks for the info, Would an 84 stocker possibly fit? I was pricing the dg and it sure seems like money well spent. I just wonder in case I found a good deal on a stocker.

Here are some pics of the tail section. decided to weld the sheet metal on ...

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 ...
