The guy want's $30.00 for it, so I should give it a try. The sticker is going to come off for sure. It looks like the OEM one is about six inches longer.

Is it going to be as loud as my FMF Turbinecore? I would like a quiet OEM one, but it might be difficult to buy a nice used one.

so is it plulsing when you are stopped and flash the throttle? does it come down off its max rpm with 3-4 clear fires before reaching idle, or come down with 10 or more half-hearted drawn out attempts to catch its rpm? I would say 3-4 clear fires but I'm going to ride it and double check. I know it...

I just got back from a ride. I was on some quad trails and in the gravel pits. The last thing I need is more power, it's way too much bike for me, but it's a lot of fun. I'm still trying to dial in the jetting. The only problem is when I let off the throttle and glide, the bike still fires about onc...

Ha ha,i thought the same thing when i first rode mine.... then i took it to a mx track :shock: anyways, sweet bike man, gen3's come out CLEAN !!! where did ya pick up the ohlins from? let us know how they go I bought the Ohlins shock and forks off eBay for $500.00. I never really rode the bike with...

I have a few hours on it now, just driving up and down my road. I thought it would be more powerful, maybe when I actually take it off road that will change. I rode my friend's stock CRF450, and the 500 feels tame compared to it. We might go for a real ride on Sunday but there still may be snow on t...

There are a few good shock manuals to download on this site.

I found out that ktm125sx have pwk39 on them. So looking on ebay i found alot of them for about 100 cdn ............ So are they the same carbs i would buy from sudco........can i bore them out to 41.5 ................ By the time you pay for jets, buy a different slide, and pay someone to bore it ...

The one that I have is 82.16 grams. I'm not 100% sure if it's OEM, but the piston was.

I am pretty sure I have a stock one. I will try to get it weighed tomorrow.

One was a little banged up on the bottom and needs a shock bearing.

I got it centered with the spokes. I loosened one side, and tightened the other. I did this a couple of times and it didn't seem like it was moving but all of a sudden it went too much. Now I have to true it again but I need the practice anyway.

I was thinking that could be the problem also but the Excel Pro Series come laced from the factory. It still is possible.

Isn't 3.5mm a lot to move a wheel with just the spokes? The right and left spokes seem to be threaded in the same amount.

What did you guys do here? My Excel Pro Series is also off center, it's 7mm closer to the right fork. If I machine the left spacer a little narrower, the rotor bolts might rub on the fork guard bolt. I am going to have to get low profile fasteners, like button heads. https://bannedcr500riders.com/im...

Some pictures of what you get.

I am interested in a spring from this ad, but you have to be registered to use it. Is it possible to get the seller's email?

I have a few sets and three different bends for sale. 58mm-67mm-18 degrees, 72mm-57mm-15 degrees, 92mm-53mm-13 degrees. Two bars and one set of clamps, $50.00 plus shipping. I don't have any pads. I have a few other bends that I want to keep but I could change my mind. There are 1 3/8 bars so you ha...

I downloaded a few of the manuals but they don't cover my exact shock and fork. There is enough to get by though. I would like to change my rear shock oil but it looks like I am going to have to send it to an authorized Ohlins repair center. The forks felt strange at first, like thay had no oil in t...

Might work from 97-99 also but I'm not sure. Must be willing to ship to Canada.

Problem sort of solved. The Gen III mounting bracket was the same from 2002-2003. In 2004 they used a different style bracket but used the same caliper. I have a 2004. In some diagrams they list both styles of brackets.

I have a headache from looking through parts diagrams.

I just did some research and Gen II and III use the same caliper. Gen 1 and newer CR500's seem to use the same caliper. If someone could get me the 500 bolt spacing, it would be appreciated.

Does anyone know the distance between the front caliper bolt holes on a Gen I and Gen II? I am putting some Ohlins forks on my Gen III and the caliper doesn't fit the forks. I need a caliper that has a 104mm bolt spacing.

I picked them up today, they look all right. I can't find any information on them. The guy that sold them to me was supposed to give me a manual, but he didn't. I think the rear is a 46PRX which seems common, except mine is a copper colour and the newer ones are silver. I can't find anything on the ...

Sold.

It would be a lot cheaper to pick one up yourself in the US. I brought mine back without a motor as parts. I didn't have to pay the RIV fee that way. Some border crossings won't make you go through the RIV and some will.

What year are you looking for?
