Damn Bob, good luck getting one of those. A brand new green sticker 500, you can't go wrong with that.

Hey, I've riden my AF twice and have to change the seal on the counter shaft now.

I'm thinking of yanking both motors out and getting them both built the same.

I was gona say, you'll have to send it back, wrong side stand.
I was worried about the seat too. Its been ok, probably cause I've riden track mostly. But the JB rides haven't caused monkey butt yet either.

Two rides, a leaking seal and now rebuild the new motor

It's not the new motor. He was having to many problems with it so he sent his motor in it.

The Comfort going to the aluminum bike from the steely will be like going from your favorite leather recliner-rocker in the family room to the rought iron park bench at the corner.It'll fly nice and straight and go through the bumps though.....
Make sure you get AJ to throw in a set of these with extra thick buttocks pads..................

It looks cool, but I think you would like a cr250 conversion more. My buddy has a 05 SH 500 and it has alot of stuff going on that seems crappy to me. If you build it yourself, you can make it better. New engine means nothing, just build a good engine. Port it, bling it, new seals etc.. And have someone weld the 250 frame for you. My buddies SH frame welds look like ass. Hard to believe this place gets props for making good frames, welds looks like they don't know what they are doing. And they detune the motors for some reason. My buddies has no bottom end, at least compared to every cr500 I have ever ridden before. When he let me ride it, I was like, what the hell, sure doesn't have the snap mine does. And a Eline stator would get you the headlight you want. That bike does look cool, but for the money, you can build one better imo.

what is it with women and handbags??? my cousins wife bought herself a coach purse for the same price as my cousins cr500 when he got it so that it would be "fair". My wife on the otherhand gets her handbags at target mostly because she'd rather spend money on ink.
