I'm definitely going to test ride one if I get a chance.

Not a lot of chatter in here. Whats everyone think of the new African Twin? I'm kinda of excited but also disappointed. I have a short inseam so it's really tough for me to street tall bikes, not much easier in the dirt but I manage.

Also kinda sad it's a 500lb machine.

I sent you a PM good sir!

Pretty sure xr650l forks will fit, in fact pretty sure its the same from end as the 80s generation cr500. I can get a OD measurement for you if you want.

Is it possibly the HRC 500 lighting setup?

Hey guys

I just updated my for sale thread. If it's not in the test list it's gone.
I don't have any paperwork for the frame and it has the typical cable rub that's worn away the center digits on the vin so I think getting paperwork for it would be tough. Everything is located in 21048 and I'm ...

You'd be surprised. Programmed correctly I can't imagine that cover taking much more than an hour to cut out.

The triple trees I posted above, take 12 minutes for the top to be cut out and 15 for the bottom. Obviously the cover is a little more intricate but I can't imagine much more than and hour ...

Hi everyone,

looking for 1984 cr500r tank. the one year air cooled tank. Hoping to get a hold of on for $50 or less shipped to 21048. it could be damaged if it's cheap enough. I'm looking for one for mock up purposes.

Pretty sure he already makes covers like that. lol

tvalliere27, I sent you a pm. I was hoping to get your files. I have a friend that makes triple trees for me and I'm certain he could make these parts. Check your pm's and we can chit chat. I'm sure we can work something out.

Here's the part number and price for just the right cover.

You can buy a early 90's CR250r quick change cover for about $25 on ebay and save a few dollars. after that your just need your water pump parts, hopefully your impeller is still good. Also order new seals, and the needed gaskets. SHould ...

All years clutch cover will physically bolt up.

Most of us buy a 2001 right hand case and the quick change cover. The clutch cavity with the quick change cover is a little deeper so you may need to space your brake pedal over with a shim/spacer.

The only other issue you run into is the newer ...

Wanted: Trashed 90-01 CR500 frames.


I really like the head tubes from these bikes to build trike frames from. I'm not interested in the vins, I weld right through them, it's just cheaper to buy dead frames and cut the head tube off then having head tubes machined from raw material.

Anyone sitting ...

Never understand why that man on ebay is able to gouge $240 out of those covers.

Service Honda sells them for $150!

COVER, R. CRANKCASE $150.29

Parts zilla lists them for 145.90


Here you go, call Partzilla 877.473.4595 ask for part number 11340-MAC-670



Are people really that lazy that they ...

What chasis do you think it's going in?

It's for a custom trike frame I'm building. I'm building the frame around the tank but I want to stay Honda parts and use the twin spar style frame.

Can anyone do me a huge favor and snap a few pics of a non-FI tank next to a FI tank, focusing on the the differences in the bottoms


I'm working on another project and I really could use a little more clearance and the hump in this 04-05 crf450 tank is a real hangup. I'm hoping a FI tank will give ...

Definitely feeling better after speaking with mxdogger. We spoke, he realy seems to know his stuff and is willing to help me straighten out my disappointment. Make a note, if you didn't already know, good hoon here.

So I did make it in the garage and a hour or so I have the lower mounts removed and ...

I'll give you a call a bit later today. About ready to be done with this.

Well...

This is a frustrated venting post so beware. I'll post pics later but I'm just going to get this out in txt right now.

My buddy can weld for sure, but I think I'm a victim of "laid off guy lazy + oh I have a job again I better get that bike done".


He fixed my 89 engine case very nicely ...

I need 2

forgive me as I don't mean this as heckling like I'm sure it reads.

I think the point is until there's something physical to see, your thread is nothing but words that mean little to anyone here.

I mean honestly anyone of us can sketch up a theoretical e-start setup for these engines but its ...

proof of concept is really a necessity with this.

You'll get plenty of hecklers sayings who needs it, but for every heckler there's probably 3-4 people who would buy it if it was reasonable.

Unfortunately talk of doing it isn't enough, drawings and pictures of something real will be required to ...

WTB: early gen (02-04 I think) Honda crf450r fuel tank and shrouds. Aftermarket is okay but looking for CLEAN parts. No stripped threads. Red shrouds preferred but not necessary for the right deal.

shipped to 21048 let me know what you have/make a deal

If the slide is that rough I'd kinda wonder how good that carb body is.

I love rekluse clutches but yeah, at 525$ shipped I'm not really scrambling for it. It may be new, but I'd rather buy one used at around $300 with little to no wear. Its really easy to find people who 'tried' them and didn't like them and sell them cheap.

I also would not be surprised if you could ...
