And the results are in... Up to the look out, down to the creek, it was all good. There's a vid... Doesn't really show me, (my 600 running), I'm the camera man. I got great shots of my old 82 XR500R and a crf450 riding the single track trail. If you go to 6:20 on the video, that's where bill stands his bike up and pivots around, then drops it... I really liked how my bike did so good over everthing. I'd ride a section then wait for these guys to show up...

Hi guys! I will have to replace the COUNTERSHAFT because of the wear of the teeth in my XR500r. I want to use the NEW XR600R-2000 23220-MN9 - 980 COUNTERSHAFT (I have all the necessary gears to the shaft). Can I use OEM XR650R SPROCKET (14T) - 23801-MBN-670 together with NEW XR600R-2000 23220-MN9 - 980 COUNTERSHAFT? The thickness of the OEM XR650R SPROCKET (14T) more, she will be able to maintain the correct position of the chain? Sorry, this has already been discussed, but I find it hard to find the exact answer (my English is very bad). Thank you.

Question for anyone. My 93 xr600 starts up no problem. When it's running it seems like its missing a bit. Kinda of like da da da da hhhh da da da da. Any ideas?
Hi all I've asked a few questions about cylinders and performance parts here http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=798285 I started a thread so's any answers wouldn't get lost on this one This will be for a winter re-build Adviceso far is to get in touch with cyclewizard I'm in the UK , but happy to purchase from anyone anywhere that knows their stuff Anyone like to chime in ? Cheers Stu
Make sure you do not have any leaks on your rubber intake boot. I fought a long battle with mine until I found this simple remedy. Also, make sure your mixture screw is adjusted properly if the "miss" is happening while it is idling.
is it ok to run my bike at wide open throttle in 5th gear down the highway. as of right now ive only been to 80 mph on it but im scared of messsing up my engine btw i have 14/48 gears . it seem like my old 83 xl600r would do like 105 mph topped out. and was never scared of blowing her up.
Thanks for the input I'll look at the rubber intake boot, doubtful that's it. How do I know if I have the mixture screw adjusted properly. I'm at about 2 full turns. The bike runs great and starts great, just this one problem. Thanks again Oh yeah! 2 wheels!
tell us more about your bike... 80 is low, 90+ is stock...anything over 100mph is pretty good especially with knobbies.... Im just under 100, not quite the ton bummer! jajaja christian
Started first kick....no lights...measured voltage at the ni-cad battery....nothing....AC/ 6 volts....rev it up....2 volts a/c... Un plug the stator, stator shows 14v then up to 50v ac revved up, so that is good....plug in JUST the regulator/rectifier....stator volts drop to 6v a/c... I am quite sure this baja regulator is toast...the battery is for sure. Thanks Steve, I love KNOWING it will start up first kick when you put the motor together It is a nice bike, too bad i gotta sell her.
What do I have here hiding under my tank? Here is a closer view upsidedown for easier reading... So how do I know if it is still working, or how it is supposed to work?
I pulled out my very old White Bros catalog and I didn't see it so I just searched for Roost Boost and this is one of the things I found: the roost boost is nothing more than a simple RC,resistor capacitor, circuit. The system basicly produces a more consistant spark which is supposed to help the low end, but if the bike is tuned correctly the roost boost does nothing. There are a few other variations in names, I have one on my 406, and had a spare so i cut it apart and found a 2200 ohm resistor connected in series to a 400 micro farad capacitor, guessing on that are it was really hard to read. BTW... I have one on MY XR600 from way back when.
roost boost! jjaja sounds like something RC cars would have, anywhoo your xr, wait what? does that thing even see daylight or pretty much just when you open the garage door it gets a brief glimpse of light and its poor hopes up? hmmmm? jajaja kidding hey had an awesome ride on friday,...bike kicked ass! me wants more power now! so hand over the goods will ya? yeah yeah I know not yet
How about a JE 10.5/1 CR piston? I have a spare XR cylinder I could get bored for ya. This and the CW 628 piston should wake your slug right up. I even have a spare XR head that can get the CW love. Port 'n polish, big fins,TI spring kit, the works. It's only money honey.
is that je slug he famed over comped piston? unlike the wiseco which is under comped, I read about a guy having a 10.5 in his bike and it was actually more comp around 11+ and he was having pinging issues Im already getting the valve springs, ti keepers, seals etc...from cw right? anything in the mail yet? you meant 628 cam right? anywhoo, I have my head that already has new kibblewhites, valve guides, seals, etc...it is not ported or anything wanna trade some stuff? I got cylinders too... Id love some headwork that I could use with my old stainless headers, that would be sweet huh? anywhoo shoot me a message with the deals! well see cheers
Yes I meant cam and yes again the JE piston. I forgot that the Ti springs are on order. Nothing happening with the parts yet.
well heres the deal, I have 4k mile piston at the most on my stock 87 long skirt piston, oem rings...on the bike now I have 2 cylinders, one the 88 with crap sleeve job but stock, and the one you sent me last time around... I also have a prox used piston with about 2k miles on it the prox is ok the honda piston set is in excellent shape... the cylinders are both good I also have the cam and rocker set in trade for the cw stuff If any of this interests you in trade plus some cash cool if not Ill have to hold off and only get the CW stuff maybe just the je piston a nd cylinder? cant afford the port and polish dont think... you know the BAR! jejeje $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ cheers bud take care
steve I forgot I also have my rebuilt buchanan black excel original wheel too remember? new axle, bearings, and spacers, also speedo assembly I had it sold, but the guy in hawaii had a baby!jajajaj sooooooooooooooooo I could trade or sell that jajajaj just thiking out loud here! I have stuff I dont need even an IMS 4 GALON TANK! jajajaja
Next time you come up this way bring the excess stuff. If you do want to do the JE piston let me know. I bought this cylinder just for a spare. You know me and my SPARES. I got spares for my spares. :eek1 :eek1
yeah I learned from you apparently! Yes I would love the je high comp piston setup with the hrc cam, if it can be done let me know anna can take some stuff up right? again let me know maybe we can pull it off jajajaja this is like my rebuild thread all over again! jajaja cheers bud over and out!
