Now I feel like an idiot because a few days ago I searched every combination of "cr" "500" "motor" and "engine" I could come up with and I didn't find much.

I guess theres not many CR500's are scootin around the nasty northeast woods.

I'm in north New Jersey.. around 30 miles from NYC. The only whole bikes I've seen are 1500+.. I know I'd get alot back in the end but that initial payment might be a problem.


And yes, you were right britincali.

Yeah I definetly think that the grinding out/strengthening way is what I'll end up doing. I weight in at a wopping 140 pounds soaking wet so I think it can handle it.

This sight has already proved very helpful. Shanman for the headstay, dannygraves for the motor mounts.. sounds good. Now I still don't really know what you guys do to the Y's.

Hey guys. I just joined this sight, as directed by britincali from TT. I currently have an 03 CR250 that I would love to stuff a CR500 engine into.
