Didn't know AJ was a lurker here.  Welcome, man of big two strokes! 

[AJ]

Thanks!

I will try to get some decent resolution photos up soon.


Havnt been able to test it seriusoly yet,, but when i do i'll post some feedback from myself,,
(unfortuantly that will likely be biased?  lol )
and from other variuos riders.

I like it! I love the way you used a CR500 pipe. But looks tough. I'd be curious with a Dyno/AF to see how the CR500 pipe effects the motor.

Let us know your progress, I always loved the CR500AF in black you guys did for Singletracker500.

about the pipe:

Its a test bike, and  runs good now,,
but before i sell them as a model it will have a pipe made specifically  for it by PC and FMF..

and at that time  i'll also likely  do a newer style digital ignition/CDI  ,

(like i did for the CR500AFX ,(and stock CR500's)
that follows the OEM stock CDI mapping but runs a bit cleaner and crisper, and starts easier. and adds the ability to have 120 watts of lights)

So this is going to be something you'll be building and selling like the cr500af?

Any thoughts when this might go into production and will it be in the same price range for the cr500af? I'll be keeping my eye on this. I want one.

Now if only there was a way to add an electric leg.

Now if only there was a way to add an electric leg.  

lower the compression, flywheel weight, jetting on par. Should start like your 250.

[gwcrim]

My 500 starts about as well as I could hope for.  Maybe I shouldn't have bored her out to 520.  It just takes my whole body to move the kicker.  With the 250, I can kick from a seated position.

Yeah, I'm a whimp.
