Bottom end swap?
I know it's a long shot, but wondering if anyone out there would be interested in swapping my 1990 complete bottom end less the crank for the later model silver case bottom end (92+ I believe). No case damage on mine, my one bike is a mutt with a 1990 motor in a 1998 frame and I'd like to get it bac...

Re: Wiseco std size forged piston cylinder clearance
Hit up blownbillybob, every piston will vary a little....I guess you could just slap something together but for a motor that will last years and years I'd just do it right. Send the jug to Bill, he will size it properly with the proper bore measuring equipment that will make sure it isn't tapered o...

Re: New member in OR
Dang that's good, I think my 98 was more in the 35-40 range when it was getting low enough that I was glad to be back at or close to the truck.

Re: New member in OR
On the aluminum frame bikes you have to heat and push in the gas tank which reduces the volume. I figure I'm getting about 15 miles out of the ~1.4 gallons. I'm going to buy a Trailtech Vapor (local company Battlground, WA) to get a real idea of the range. The RPM/Speedo wont hurt either. Holy shit...

Re: New member in OR
This is the place to be for CR500 info. It is pretty quiet usually but there are some good people here with a ton of great knowledge and experience with these bikes.

Re: Hello fellow 5-hundy riders
Welcome to the funny farm. Adam Millar (Roostius Maximus) is the Canuck you refer too. User blownbillybob I believe is in the SoCal area and does good work as well.

Your best bet is something like www.partsfish.com to find a breakdown of all the parts. You're going to run into issues finding some stuff (transmission parts are getting hard to come by).

Re: Hello all, I am looking for a definitive answer to the question, which Aluminum Frame is the best to put a 500 motor
The general consensus seems to be the 05-07 era CRF's are the most preferred, but there are many opinions out there. A lot of guys actually prefer the KTM steel frames for conversions as well.

I'm here too, think 500's are just dead and nobody cares but a select few...sad. Hardly. The market here in North Idaho is still healthy. I had my 98 on Craigslist a while back for $2000 and never got a single bite. Not sure there is much interest in the 500's in this area anymore except for a sele...
