I think what he may be referring to is, didn't you have a shop do some work on it before it was shipped to you?
Start a new thread, you will get more exposure and better answers. RS500R hasn't even been talking about different rims.
Cut method http://www.daughertymotorsports.com/howto/tankvalve/tankvalve.html And here's one I found that involves swapping the location of the...
I've done the vacuum delete on couple 500 petcocks. Pretty straight forward, pretty much just cutting out the center of the diaphram and using it...
Boots are different because the 84/85 and 86 carbs are different sizes. Are your carbs super easy to install?
Whatever parts you need for the drive you can have for the price of shipping. And thank you for the kind words on my 500. It's in line for some...
Awesome. Never can enough toggle switches in a van. OK, so you're doing an "extra" frame. That's like shit I do. Friends think I'm insane.
Why do I keep staring at that van?! Because it's rad! I kept meaning to ask, what's the second frame for again?
That's (gonna be) fucking cool. Projector?
Sorry, I mis-spoke. The outside diameter of the exhaust at where you would cut off the muffler is under 2". But it doesn't matter, a muffler...

Ideally, you should. Even stock bikes can benefit from an increase to the pilot jets. But depending on which mufflers you choose, you could...
Yeah, it looks like I will be switching to 84/85 carbs on my 86 the next time they come out. Ridiculous....
Wow. Congrats and Welcome!
Hacking up a set of decent original mufflers for the connecting pipes is blasphemy. Here's what you'll need off of donor mufflers, this is a left...
You could find some crashed mufflers for the pipes, buy two L/R mufflers, and then have some 2" connecting pipes made. Example:...
Yes, I love them. Look and sound great. I bought some crashed mufflers so I could cut them up just for the pipes. [IMG] I have a brand new set...
I still don't get the mounts at different locations and differing lengths at the front. I really think they are from two kits.
8 hour drive? Prob not worth it then. $1600 quote for carb work is laughable. But if the bodywork is decent and doesn't need every other...
