i think something wears a hole. maybe thats what happened with bob ?

if that engine wasnt assbackwards it may have some popularity on the conversion scene. be a sweet setup in a modern chassis

them 250s make all kind of wierd noises. '04 sounds just like a rod knock but it aint. dont know what it was

How do you guys get a good holeshot on these things? My rear tire is TRASH, for starters. This will be rectified very soon. It spins first and second, and will start to grab and wheelie in 3rd. Might as well do 3rd gear starts. Drag racing a 250F, It gets me out of the hole every time. By a solid 2...

made some phone calls and i guess all cars get a doc fee. $389 seems steep though. 16k toyota only had $199 doc fee. not happy about the "$189 extra" charge. i should of paid more attention :x . doubt ill ever go to a dealer again unless i buy brandnew and that will be many years down the ...

i dont see how brit sleeps at night

so we all know most car salesman are snake in the grass :lol: and i think i got hosed today but maybe you can clarify somethings. dont want to tear up the toyota running it to work so i found old beater at the local dealer. get down there and he says they want $4400 but since im a freind of a friend...

chumly should hang up his boots and part out that bike. i got first dibs on the cylinder

dont need to call in experts from around the world to sort this out. :roll: . my first post explained it in simple terms. its blowing through the right side or the center gasket. both scenarios go into the tranny. hard to say which is leaking. could be leaking at both places for all we know. rather ...

got a leak on the right side at the seal and collar or center case gasket. is it a new engine you bought ? probly be a mosquito fogger if you fire it up.

it could be made by kehein. hard to say without seeing it. got some prox jets but still havent checked the holes to see if theyre accurate

60* should send it towards the plug. dude must really have it angled up. 80* or so

how you get a airlok when the carb is below the tank and you only got 3" long hose

best way a first timer could learn is buy a $100 bike off craiglist and grind on that jug

why we talking wiseco. website says they dont even make rod or crank for cr500

alot of posts on TT about shit wiseco cranks flying apart. no offense to anybody using one but go read for yourself. figured out why theyre selling like hotcakes. $161 to your door for crank, bearings, gaskets and seals .

not sure why chumly mentioned the pipe bullshit. acts like its simple as making loaf of bread . i guess everything is easy when your breathing sea foam fumes all day

s/h shows $327 for the crank. you think its $100 postage ?

that prox rod is only $80. cant imagine postage more than $40 if even that much. install is only 1hr deal. $100 labor at the most. thats what they charge over here anyways

welding would be the easy part of the whole job. alot of discussion on other sites if a computer program can make the perfect pipe. some say yes and others say its just a tool to help

whats a brandnew one from s/h cost to ship over there ? should be less than $400. the whole point of rebuilding a old one is its usually quit a bit cheaper but if its the same price you better off getting a new one IMO

$88 is hell of a deal. last one i bought was $100. probly gonna order another one from that link i posted

im not sure there is a correct way to do it. ask 10 professionals and you likely get several different answers what works best.

prox is japan. most likely same place oem is made. cant confirm it but that would be my guess

talked to wiseco directly about them being part of hotrods. said theres no connection. talked to them both on the phone about where their shit is made. wiseco is china hotrods is taiwan. not saying thats bad... just sayin. not even sure the pistons are usa. says so on the box but who knows. hit and ...
