Bob... I just took a stocker out of your recycling program...lol
I just picked up a stocker off Flea-bay for $15

give us a ride report.

Hey Roost, I took a pass on the 89 roller that we were talking about.

Hmmmm, maybe I should help Bob with his recycling program.

Hey 87CR500... Might cut the frame this week... Come on over for the special event..lol

Sweet jesus, I finally got a good engine!! Now, next question for you hoons... What pipe? PC platinum or the FMF Gnarly.

Which one and why

Paul,

do you have mounts that work on Gen 4- CRF250?

Zach

Hey Bob... sold the 250F yesterday... going to start cutting the frame as soon as the new 500 gets here.

Tacoma... you may get a few hoon´s that would be interested in your stays and other little bits that you make.... I really liked the pipe mounts.

OK... Im off to Houston this weekend to look at a complete 89. Rossty, ill send you pictures of the roller if I bring it home. Also, I found an 87 thats in good shape inside, but where the hoses attach to the water pump housing it severely corroded. Can these spigots be changed?

I have a complete 2008 CRF 250 that has 21 hours on it. Its been sitting in my garage waiting to get a 500 conversion. I was hoping to ebay the complete engine ignition etc for $1200.... seems to be the common price these days.

No need to take the bike for a spin. When I get there they are dragging it down the street trying to get it going... I smile, say hi and tell them to stick it. Bike was clapped, cleaned up nice but underneath the new plastic it was rough..... NEXT

On my way to look at a clean 1990. I have not ridden a 500 since 1987 when I ice raced an 86 CR 500 up in Canada. Looking forward to it. I have heard a lot of you mention that if the thing has too much vibration in the steelie chassis that it is probably crank related. I hope I can feel that--lol An...

After looking at way too many beat or just unknown engines, I have decided that I am just going to look for a complete CR500 to buy for my donor. I have a pristine 2008 CRF250 sitting in the garage waiting to get torn apart, so its time I get a 500 and get this project started. I was hoping to get t...

Spent the day riding the new 350 KTM at Cycle Ranch here in Texas. I´ll start off by telling you that it is the best handling KTM I have ridden, and out of the box, it was pretty good, just a little soft for my weight and speed. I ride a 09 CRF 450 (while I build a 500/F) and spent the day going bac...

well my CR 500 that i bought was a roach... After chasing the guy around for weeks, I go to get it and find out the 2000 has a 85 engine in it, and everything just looks like shit!!! to say I was bummed is a major understatement...Lesson learned on internet finds... So I am still hunting for a 500 e...

small world... I just went and looked at that bike here in SA. Seems its a buddy of the guy I ride with every week at Cycle Ranch. From what little info I do know... its the real deal. He has a McGrath bike too.

saaaweeeet super bee... Im Canyon Springs (off 281 and Stone Oak) You get to Cycle Ranch?? If ya do look for a couple Hondas with 714 on the plate and a silver F250

ok... Plans are all changed.... again! I just bought a very nice 2008 CRF250 so my 450 will stay together..... Anyone want to adopt a hoon in Texas...lol

Does anyone have pictures of a 2009 CRF450 frame conversion?

Thanks Roost... I sent a fellow Canuck your way a while ago for som 500 parts. I think you got him all dialed in.... Thanks

Thanks to Danny and Bob for answering all of my questions... Im starting to put together parts... Just bought a complete 2000 CR500 (might actually ride it) My next question, has anyone done a 2009 CRF 450 conversion? I really like mine, and was thinking I may convince my wife Ill just keep it for t...

I have some conversion parts to do a gen 3 CR125(billet head stays/ wye, and some cradles), The guy I bought them from did not know if they would work with the 250. What differences can I expect? Is the frame where the head stay mounts on the 125 / 250 in the same place. Is the down tube where the ...

Am I too old, or is it just not a hoon friendly city??

speaking of swapping parts... Will the CRF style rad shrouds fit on a 03 CR tank. I am looking at a Gen 3 conversion but like the new style plastics better.

I am new to Texas, ride at Cycle Ranch and am looking to do my first 500 A/F.
