Looks great. How bout some more angles when you get a chance. Good job.
20K is not high mileage necessarily, but I guess it depends on what happened in those miles. Good luck and report back.
It is fairly common on bikes that have sat or sometimes when new clutch plates are installed. They plates are stuck together. My Honda Hawk GT...
So... what IS your problem, exactly? The hydraulic clutch appears to be moving the pressure plate just fine. Is it that with the clutch pulled...
OK... so I made two of these shocks out of the two nicest, low mile OEM shocks I had. At the time I was building a guest / rain RC15, but wanted...
Hmmmm.... weird. Not sure how I would feel about that. Anyway, enjoy your new 500. It does look sweet.
Please elaborate on what that means exactly. Oh, and NICE LOOKING BIKE!!!

I would never trust that switch out on the road. If you wanted to eliminate for testing, and sourcing a replacement, you can "hot wire" the bike...
WooHoo!
Gotcha. Start with plugs as Terry states and go from there. Also, how does the air filter look? Does it run ok again after sitting for a while...

Not really, no. The real early ones had a different internal reflector design tho. Not sure what your inventory looks like, but I might have a...
PM me about some proper rear winkers when it arrives. It looks like it deserves them.
Correct. While it looks like the other valves mounted right to the tank, its just the selector. Petcock is inboard bolted to the bottom on the...
Anyone who has seriously rebuilt a 500 usually has a parts bike.
That is a "restore", but seems pretty nice. The rear signals are an odd choice. Baz, you would love a properly sorted 500.
@RogueRC24 Take this over to your thread...
HAWK: It is the clutch from what you describe, for sure. NSR: But the throttle snaps back if you release and doesn't hang? Are they strictly...
Separate names with a comma.
