1986 KX500 Engine help
« on: January 24, 2012, 07:52:07 AM »
I am looking for someone to rebuild my crank and bore my cylinder for my 1986 KX500.  Anybody have a recommendation?

Ive heard a TON of great compliments on eric gorr's work. He is probably the best for the job. I would think just purchasing a new crank is cheaper as I did for my 60 but it may be different for a 500.

Absolutely not gorr , ugggh. Ask Motorrad if you dont believe me. My jug came back all sorts of slagged up from him, & it didnt get port work like it should have.
Try Pinsonault, he answers his own phone & his customer service is good. I ordered the wrong size piston, he got me straightened out no hassles. His prices are great too.
if I only had a pair, I could actually ride this thing
