1993 Steelie
1993 Steelie
My buddy just traded 4 fishing poles, some VHS tapes,, and an open set of Ginsu Knives for this monster....
It runs, so it cant be that bad.....
This actually belongs to "Solid Bro" Eric......
Its a ok bike.... Starts well and the vibes are pretty low. Engine seems fine.
It needs a few things.... And I'm calling out to you Hoons to help out where you can.
Eric's had a real tough year in business, and with family health stuff.....
These last few rides he has been on with us is the most I have seen him laugh and smile in a long time.....
So, heres a quick list of stuff the bike needs to be solid...
1. Pipe and flange springs
2. Foot brake pedal
3. OEM colored plastic and / or decals
4. Air filter
5. Chain guide that wraps the swingarm
6. Subframe (without) stripped out nut-serts
7. Maybe a set of decent radiators
8. Any kinds of swingarm or linkage rebuild kits.
I'm taking care of item number one, and giving Eric one of my OEM pipes and a set of springs....
Anything you guys can do to clear out some of the stuff in your garage and take care of the rest for free, or give a good Hoon discount to Eric would be much appriciated..
With so many A/F's build lately, there has to be some steelie stuff just sitting.....
He's also looking for a extra rear wheel in good shape... he realizes this is a "big ticket" item, and will be an outright purchase..... anyone have something available?
Thanks in advance guys....

i gave away all my spare parts to other hoons. ill take a second look and see if theres anything still laying around.
if i can find some spare parts, ill need to be reimbured for shipping charges. ive sent free parts out before and only asked for shipping, sadly some people havent even paid me back the shipping charges.

I have several spare parts but none of the parts needed. I have a rear wheel that will fit but it came off a 91 125 so it is kinda narrow. It would need a tire and even then would spin like a beast. I would stick it on the 500 occasionally when I was working on the 500 wheel and was wanting to ride before I got it fixed. The one that is on the bike is probably better off than what I have though. My spare parts are exactly that, nothing new and only get you through till you fix what was on it.

"SOLID Bro!!" I have a set of wheels, hubs with new powdercoat, bearings, seals, heavy duty S/S spokes with heavy duty lacing and new Xcel rims.
The rims are silver and the hubs are black.
PM me if you are interested.
MY BAD! should of checked which set of wheels I still had.
Sold this set quite awhile ago. Sorry Eric

The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...
