I did that chassis for him :lol:

Well then thank-you. It worked perfectly other than having to adjust the silencer mount on the subframe to work with my FMF turbine-core.

All I have left is to rebuild my forks and maybe get an oil change for the shock and it's pretty much done.

Minor tank mod ...

Welcome from another Albertan. I used to ride my 84 500 at Cloverbar and Bruderheim back in the 80s when I lived in Edmonton with trips to Cadomin, Limestone and Whitecourt thrown in frequently. Been in Calgary since the early 90s though. Some great riding around here.


I haven't ridden cloverbar ...

I got two top end kits with it and both pistons have a window cut into the intake side of the skirt which he say's boosts low and midrange power. I ...

The guy I got it from sent it to the US and had it done there. I can't remember which place it was done but I could find out if your interested. It wasn't cheap and unfortunately he had it done in a bore size that the pistons have been discontinued. I just put in a fresh one and have one more new ...

Long time CR500 rider of about 10 years, just finished putting the motor into a gen 1 chassis and am very happy with the results. A little more vibration than I'd like but I think a little experimenting with the head stay and shims in the motor mounts might help it a little. I hadn't ridden the 5 ...
