So, I have the shock sitting in a box and I can't decide what to do...

The more I think about, the more I wonder if it really is blown. It has 45ish psi in the bladder, of course it could just be air for all I know. The shaft is perfect. When the shock was installed, and I bounced it up and down, I ...

Would a '95 really not do? I didn't think Honda made many changes to the CR500 in that era. Anyway, if a '95 is cool, check eBay auction number 130229405040.

Thanks guys, I'm a little embarrassed...I assumed Honda didn't support bikes this old, my apologies.

As far as what it needs, I don't really know. Right now it's all spring and downright dangerous. I would assume it needs the standard rebuild plus maybe bushings. It's super clean, and has hardly ...

WTB: Intake boot for '86 & misc.

Hello folks, I'm looking for the boot that goes from the reeds to the carb, as the rubber has cracked.


Also looking for:

Rubber piece that attached the gas tank to frame.

Bracket that attaches exhaust pipe to frame, the one that's right about where the gas tank and number panel almost meet.

I ...

1986 CR500 Shock needs rebuild

Where do you guys buy parts?

If you wouldn't rebuild it yourself, does anyone know who will service something this old?

If I'm at two strikes already, what are the odds of fitting a newer shock in there?

Hello folks, I just picked up an '86 CR500 and came across this site while looking for parts/info. I'm in northern california, and have been riding dirt off and on for about twenty years now, but this is my first big bore two smoker. It's a kick in the pants for sure!
