Re: The Burning Question...?

The RG has the issues with the tranny, but I never did with mine. The RG is faster in steering response and throttle response then the RZV (that's what I have) When I made that comment that you need an RG so how the RZ should have been made. It was a conversation with Wynn, Rick Lance and Ken Smith ...

Re: The Burning Question...?

Ok is not on any of my motorcycles but on my 911. I try DOT5. The pedal felt spongy. I don't know if its because the 911 is 1971. The hardware has been replaced and the calipers are upgraded to 930 (turbo calipers)

Re: VJ22/RG500

The forks and swingarm are 1994 GSXR750. Here are some pictures. The gas tank is a VJ23. You can see in one of the pictures where gas tank mounts are different. The bracket on the frame for the gas tanks will need to be alter. The subrames on the floor. The VJ22 is on the left while the one on the r...

Re: VJ22/RG500

Well if you support drilling to the heads or using head stud for support. Then call RGVSteve and confirm this.Now all it takes is common sense not to buy a kit that drills into the head or using an engine stud. I wanted this kit for a long time, but it made sense to wait till the makers of the kit s...

Re: VJ22/RG500

No John Take a look at the link and what I posted. The fabricator that I bought the engine kit was making it erroneous. He is in the UK. He started making the kits like the one I bought. Why is it so hard for you to understand the engine kit should use the RG500 motor mounts. RGVSteve said the kit h...

VJ22/RG500

Here is my new project. A VJ22 frame with a RG500 engine. The engine kit and the RG500 motor was installed in Florida by RGVSteve. As you can see in the pictures. The engine kit is not the erroneous type where the front mounts are bolted to the heads. I included a link where fabricators are using th...

Re: The Burning Question...?

A previous posting mentions how I think the RG500 is better than the RZ500. I own a RZV500 and a Walter Wolf RG500. I like both bikes since they are both 2 strokes. There are definitely differences between them when it comes to the power band. I also included a couple of links on the Tranny issue wi...

Re: The Burning Question...?

I’m a member of this forum since it’s started. Now if John has an opinion since he knows so much. I like to hear it with the different options. The same way he feels that Wiseco pistons are the greatest and can walk on water. I have the right to post they are junk. As you read before OEM pistons are...

Re: The Burning Question...?

well John I see that you like to continue with this thread where you again you accuse me of not contributing anything to this forum. Are liners available for the RZ500 cylinders. I need to ask you since you are very knowledgeable on the RZ500. You can enlighten us with such knowledge. You are the on...

Re: The Burning Question...?

John you should have said this earlier and saved all the time praising Wiseco. The OEM pistons no need for warming like the Wiseco
