http://s467.photobucket.com/albums/rr37/cmra484/Cr500stuff/ Some left over stuff from 96 cr500. Front rim has no tire now, the rotor is new with only one ride on it $50. Rear wheel has good sprocket, rotor, and bearings and an mx51 with one ride on it. $120 or $80 without tire. Factory manual, exc s...

It probably has a lot to do with the boots too. Mine seem to not have enough heel on them or something. I see where you can have this problem. I really don't have a solution though. Maybe some of that skateboard stuff that they stick on the top of them or the stuff for slippery steps. You know what...

haha I slapped a cheapy non-oring off brand chain on my 500 just to make a ride and you can almost look down and watch it stretch while riding.

I am not afraid of mud. I will take my bike in the nastiest crap on a dare. The problem is, once my boot gets good and muddy it becomes a real pain to kick. Boot slides right off. I have heard of putting hose clamps on the kicker and positioning the screw assy on it to give some substance to it. Any...

anyone got black seat cover for my 96 steelie?

in the jeting sticky bob recommends a 1472 (DGN)as good starting point. Does this mean 1.4 taper and .72 thickness? What is the full number so I can buy one for my pj?
thanks!

ha ha you can' t see the weld job on the other side! Not the prettiest job( wire was too big) but it fixed it and I covered it with a little fiberglass wrap.

holy crap my bike is a mess! Why can't I keep anything clean?!
so can anyone tell anything about the pipe from the pic? It runs great. About looped it 8 times yesterday.

ok I'm an idiot and could only get one photo uploaded, don' tknow how much it will help. http://i467.photobucket.com/albums/rr37/cmra484/little%20sahara/500pipe001.jpg It was on bike when I go tit, so I've been running it. I haven't ridden any other 500s so I don't have a reference. It does make awe...

well I've never held any 500 pipes but mine but it definitely isn't heavy. I've thought about calling fmf but am a little skeptical about them knowing more than some of you guys, especially on such an apparently old product. It only has one ding! speaking of, I guess freezing it is out as it will al...

speaking of welds, I had to weld it as it cracked quite badly in the big bend that comes out to the left of the bike. this is the second time it happened. Is this common?

it's a 96.

My pipe says FMF gold series, but doesn't say gnarly or fatty. Just says "feel the power" under the logo. What is it?

I used to use the rotella but then figured out the cheapy oil from autozone has the same additives package( read: SJ, SH, all that crap) and is a couple bux cheaper. It has to be the deisel fleet stuff, like the rotella is spec'd for, appareently it is exempt from all that mileage enhancing crap tha...

thanks men!

thanks guys. yeah I'm thinking I may just swap the paddle on when I hit the dunes. around here it is 3 hrs to get to the sand so can't see going too often. Especially as the tire on it now is junk so that saves me taking a good one off at least. I'm still in the 45 minutes-and-alot-o-cussing stage o...

OK next month going to dunes to put the 500 in it's proper element.(NOT doing block long wheelies for neighbors :lol: ) I was looking to pick up spare rim to keep a paddle mounted on it. 1. what years and models interchange with my bike(1996)? Should I stay with 18" for the paddle rim? 2. are t...

for little sahara on a 500 id use a 10 or 12cup.. :D I run a 10 at dumont and its fairly steep in some places and we all do just fine.. little sahara(the one closest to me at least) is in western OK, I think the OP said little sierra in UT, is there such a place?. Uh, and while we're on it, I am ma...

Yep I would love to see 500 mill in yz250 chassis. What a perfect bike. The yzf frames are ugly!

What I really would like to see done is the 500 in the 250 2 stroke Yamaha alloy chassis. They have never been criticized for any weird handling issues as have the 4t ones, have ( in the later models ) the SSS suspension & then I'd just go to white plastics. It would be an up to date version of ...

OMG that is the biggest scam in the world! Any ad that is written like that is scam----color:red engine size:500 cc etc. This guy probably speaks very poor english. He is a few levels of accountability away from the actual bike itself, and will leave you chasing your tail for recourse once funds are...

thanks!

hey where's the thread on the rm250 conversion?
thanks

personally I think it looks pretty cool. but, uh, I don't know how many deer you gonna sneak up on with it. Deers do have ears, right? That polished swinger doesn't seem too tactical either.

thanks. Look like someone forgot to include the tool and nut when they sold it to me. That's the problem with so much aftermarket goo-gaws. I may take some angle iron and bolt it on the FWW. Then I can give it a good whack.
