I have ran both pro circuit and fmf, they both fit decently.
Any 91-01 cr500 silencer should bolt right up like stock to the 91-01 pipe.
Don't try to use a 250 silencer.
Get one for a late cr500.

I did this on my first one, it cost about $0.75, and has been holding up for years.



I had Roosty make this one for my second build.

Or you could have it put on the other side,

You could cut the pivot point off and weld it on lower.

That's the wrong ingnition cover for a 500 that you have linked.

You probably won't be able to find a fancy brake pedal. If you want it lower, you'll likely have to bend / cut it, and if you want something fancy, you could put a hammer head tip or something like this on:

I'd just buy one of these:

I sat on 13 sets for over a year. Sold 1 set as well.
Kept 2 for myself, and gave the rest to roosty.
If you want some, he has some.

I used to have a Yamaha sled with dual plug holders.
Roosty could probably make nicer ones...

I ordered a whole kit full of pullers on eBay.

All you need is the 27mm puller for CR's.

Like so:

Any motorcycle shop can order you one.

You need a flywheel puller.
If you try anything else, you will be sorry.

My kingdom for a set of those orange rad shrouds!
I think you got the last set on the planet!


Looks good!

Another fine head decompressor by Millar.

My 85 had 491 on the jug. I'm pretty certain they all do from 85 up.

I've got a crisp $50 bill burning a hole in my wallet!

Kidding!
(Ok not kidding!)

What do you think it's worth as a roller?

I used a stock gen1 97-99 cr250 rad hose to go to the top of the rad from the copper t on the head. Just trimmed it a couple inches.

My KTM is an 08, and has around 50 hours on the stock engine. Has a recalled camshaft still in it (auto decompressor doesn't work) this bike is harder to kick than a CR500 but luckily it has an easy button! (Which is why I have never bothered to switch out the cam shaft.)

Reliability is good, but they are different than owning a Honda, for sure. The only trouble I've had is with a leaky cam chain tensioner. I swapped it out for a manual adjuster and had no problems. Oil must be changed on both engine and tranny side every couple hours, or it shifts badly, and starts ...

That's a samsquanch starting a mini-bike!

If I had 2 hoses, they'd have to join together to go into the single rad inlet anyway.
So no, it won't run any hotter.
The gen 1 has 1 rad, so only one hose in, and one hose out.
Cools perfectly.

I had this, (which has worked flawlessly for about 5 years now)


Roostius made me this,

I hate to admit it, but my KTM excr 530 sees way more use than my CR, and its street legal, so I can ride it to the grocery store. Great bike, big torque curve.

That's going to vibrate like Micheal J. Fox.

They aren't the same o.d. You have to drill out the cases.
