I will took a picture today when I get to the shop and post it tonight.

I just broke the frame last weekend, I believe number 12, the last guy to get a frame from the ass until the storage unit find. I race worcs and moto, run the A class. The frame broke at the pretty weld on the down tube about a 1\8 crack all the way around. You can see the dowel sticking up in to th...

oops I ment 1993 not 03, as you get older the years all seem to just come together into one big long year.

It seems that the pick up bar and its location play a part in where you set the timing. Also of course the cdi box it self, according to mike a mt racing [Vortex] the 99 box is a stand alone ign. And I believe it's just not the plugs are different than say a 97, 96, 01. The biggest difference in whe...

I had 1 map thats stock cr500, 2 of them are cr250 maps, of the cr250 mapping 1 has even more advance than the other, the rest are a mix of traction and control. I call the cr250 maps my gp maps. In 500 setting you hold it wide open and run through the gears, when you run out of rpm hit the switch f...

I'v seperated the the fly wheel before, it's easy, just when rewelding it, it almost has to be submerged to keep the heat down. I have spent alot of time trying different ign, I have done 85,86,03, 99. I have a pretty good idea how each one feels. The best set up and worth the money is going with a ...

I'm running a 99 with a vortex, I'm going to seperate the flywheel and reclock about a 1\4 inch see what happens. The 93 flywheel is very close to the stock 500. I don't know why the 99s pick up is closer to the keyway. Right now you realy have to retard it to make it work. By reclocking the pick up...

update, after writing a pretty good letter to Mike [aka mtr racing] and telling him I was going to send the same letter plus a link to the build up on this website to australia the parent company he seems to be wanting to work with me now so we will see what happens. The Vortex was for a 1993 cr 250...

it was for a 93 cr 250 ignition [analog]. Are you putting it on a analog or digital? That guy mike is not a very honest dude

I was ready for the worcs race at speed world, 500 lined up right next to Ty Davis, he was on his 300 husky. He got a little western as the flag fell and we both backed out. Half way through the first lap the bike shuts down, cools down starts up again and then does the same thing. I think it's the ...

I had RG3 do mine two weeks ago and they missed the mark. The springs were right 4-6 in the front 5-4 rear. The rear does not have enough slow speed damping, and it blows through the stroke on acceleration chop, I increased the spring to a 5-6 to hold it up in the stroke and of course that just chas...

Checked the reeds, they were not good even though they were new. There was one side that was not closed very good. Bought a complete new boyesen rad valve installed it. Cleaned every thing up but I still have a stumble right as it starts in to the mid, like it is lean. When I went to a 55 pilot it w...

Its has new boysen reeds and the plug is dark brown to black, if there was a air leak it should be white correct? It is a 41, does any one have a 41 with 250 igniton and if so what is your jetting? My needle is a ceg in the richest clip. I believe a 58 pilot is going to be the next step, tried to ca...

My 86af motor has the 250 cdi fly wheel. My carb is 41 from john at sudco. The bike starts with 3 to 5 kicks. Idles good fuel screw 2 turns out the pilot is a 60 main 195 , I have 4 needles from john , The richest needle is the one installed. The bike would always rattle at about 75% throttle, just ...

Kenny, I'm getting another suspension so I have two to work with. I'm racing the team race at canyon saturday then grindingstone on Sunday. I'm using them as bike set, it is just a team race. Should be fun you guys should come race. I ordered three needles from sudco, I can't get the rattle out of t...

Your right about the rod statement .Did a gp race last weekend,1 hour race. The start was bike running and front wheel between your legs. flag dropped and get on and twist the throttle. I was third in to the first corner, moved to the front by the off road. Held that position for two laps and then p...

Well Danny you have a point with the higher bars pulling you up on the seat. There for your head is farther forward. I am going to take small steps with the ergos. The reason I used the 86 is because racing is about corner speed/ entering and exiting. There is where 90% of the passing is done. You w...

two af500 on the same track was cool, Kdizzle [Kenny] 500 has Hugh bottom end, it was much easier to than mine on the track, two reasons his suspension was set up for his 250 lbs but was very plush, and his 38 pj with porting made for big bottom end made the rear hook up good and stayed in the rut w...

Thanks roots, I have a extra head I was going to use I would like to know what your idea is for putting the comp value in. And do you know what e-line skid plate would work for ttm frame. and can that valve go in the side of the head or the does it have to be the top?

97cr500 cool project, how did that head work, did you like it? The water hose #for the water pump to the back of the head is EBP 80nh75 or the other number on the hose 2257t EBP I believe is the brand name.

I have a head so soon as the decomp comes I'll get started on it. I need to clock the water out lets a tad. I think this idea is a must when you have the motor apart. Sometimes every 500 just is hard to start for some reason. I took the kick starter apart and there is some worn gears and springs so ...

I found the decomp, did you weld it in or how did you install it in your head. Also mike at Vortex kept trying talk me in to using the 500 fly wheel, it took me awhile to convince him that it was not going to happen, I don't want that rotating mass even milling the 500 flywheel to the same weight as...

I plan on running the rekluse, most likely the rekluse pro, haven,t completely decided need to do a little more research on there new one. the fly wheel weight is adding to the rotating mass and that directly affects turning\ braking, but does help in the traction for sure, everything is a give and ...

My leg in about to fall off I have kick it so many times. When I went to the track I just push started and it would light right off. I check the kick starter and it seems to far down before it engages going to open it up and look at it. I emailed mike at votec about custom mapping his ignition so at...

Do you know anything about the Vortex ignition for a cr250, I think it would be a good set up with on the fly switching, what are some thoughts on it.
