Sorry no, I think it was mistaken as firewood and burnt that night.

After responding to several inquiries and getting the build pictures out, I remembered what went into this bike.

Other than an electric start and less vibes, I don't think the 450x is going to be the fix all. Especially when you look at the maintenance or even worse the repair cost of the 450.

I like 4 strokes, I have a big bore crf250 (291 Athena 280 with hot rods stroker). It's a fun little bike, but nothing compares to the 500 at Glamis.

for now, I am staying true to the 500.

Call Stiles... ( RedRocket190)

He rode a nice 450, and his CR500A/F in back to back rides at the Elsinore GP.

Was the 450 easier to ride.... yup.

Was the 500 a kick in the pants, with a ear to ear grin...... yup.

I spoke to him HOURS after the race.... he was still all pumped up about the 500 ride.

Gotta' love it!!!!

:headbang:

Next time the motors apart, call these guys.... I have heard nothingh but good reports....

I got a STR crank. My next one will be falicon.....

He used to get $350 for a crank, now that he likes us 500 dudes so much he's upped the price to $450 just for 500 cranks. Falicon is round $275, pretty sure apples to apples comparison.

I do like my crank job, kept me on a 500, I'd be on something else before I'd continue putting up with the vibes of a stock crank.
