That's getting expensive! A low-budget approach may be to keep looking out for used heads of decent condition and swap out parts for better ones...
Not on the 500. They never went gear driven.
Anyone - What would be a reasonable price to pay for the disassembled motor with no heads? Rebored, new Wiseko pistons, main and connecting...
I was considering a repaint of yellow over the winter if I keep mine. I used to race yellow suzuki mx'ers years ago. Thanks to you, I have a...
yes Yes on the heads. It will be obvious. Not sure on the cams without looking at the ones I have kicking around at home.
Yes, well said. I was trying to think of a way to say that and come across properly as you have. Kudos.
Interesting. I guess that answers that question. I wonder what else is different...
Invisible Cities will likely have some input, but my hunch as that they would work fine. Essentially what you would have is an 84-85 motor with...
No. It sounds a little dishonest based on him posting a pic of another bike as you found out. I want the motor, excluding heads from the guy near...
Looking at the pictures that he sent everything is 84-85. Give away things to look for are the number of bolt holes on the cam holders (86 has...

Interesting thought. However, I can't see how you could modify the 86 pan to make the right fit up to the front manifolds and the rear pipes. I...
No pump on the 1986
Yes, I got turned off my idea of a 1000 when I did some searching and found that parts availability is no better then my 500. The parts issue is...
Because it sounds like most of the work will be on the front head can this be done without pulling the motor? I think I would try it that way and...
You need a 5mm screw with a washer. You can get it from you dealer or bring one off of one of the other three heads to a good fastener shop to...
That is the point of my thread. No one here has reported being able to find a dealer that has or can get the springs. If this company does have...
I feel real bad for you. It's pretty frustrating. I had so much fear getting mine started after pouring so much time into it. Fortunately for me,...
