I know Clyde and myself have used several different porting guys including Glen, Packard, CTI, and Jerry Hall, and ridden bikes done by Pete Loomis and Eric Gore. And the only reason for the porting was for max power out of the bike and the ability to win drag races. Clydes Jerry Hall bike simply ki...

to be honest, Brits "race porting" isn't very impressive on the power it produces off the bottle. To be honest, Brit has never taken the time to tune it... bolt it together and run it til it fails is his modus operandi.... Tune what? You have a simple 2 stroke motor and the worlds most si...

Come on! LOL who is this "it runs sometimes" character? Come out and show your true identity. The real shame should be in hiding behind some unused member name when you are already someone else on here! :lol:

I've always heard f the piston doesn't fit in the new cylinder, you should whack it in with a hammer until it fits! But I prefer to buy octogon shaped pistons.

And a trail port doesn't exsist, it's either ported full out race or it's not ported at all. Making the engine have massive torque down low is the trail port, the kinda thing where you never have to shift cuz it just lugs from anywhere. That's a stock cr500 trait, all you need is the right gears an...

vs a gnarly or pc pipe, these pipes sign off real early and the FMF pipe sooner than the PC. You know that, and I know that, but people that don't drag race their bikes never experience that. People that say things like "your bike is fast enough stock, you need better suspension to go faster&q...

Hey guys Clyde didn't have a camera crew for the two short vids, he took those two vids and that was that, but he did ride for alot more testing, including reving it out. He told me the bike felt like a whole new motor, and this was on his mostly stock engine. The drag race engine will be tested wit...

I rode my freinds new 08" Kawasaki 450, what a piece of junk! Worst motor I've ever ridden, felt like it was going to blow up so I handed it back to him and never wanted to ride it again. Rode a 08 Yamaha 450, one of the best bikes I ever rode, awesome.

Absolutely! Iwould cut down a muffler like that one you did Clyde and see if it runs good. That stinger is cool, but I value my hearing to much to run that loud a bike.

I want to hear the ride report. If this thing boosts the top end substantialy, I will get one. That's the one thing about the 500's I don't like is the falling on it's face in 5th gear pinned, it needs over rev badly for the riding I do. That expansion chamber gives hope that it will over rev alot.

Don't you have insurance? Not to be a dick but that's what the cops told me when my bike got ripped. You have zero chance of getting it back, unless you personally do the legwork because the cops won't. :?
