Re: making RD500 wireharness work with RZ500
Retired, Best suggestion I could make would be to make a drawing of the relevant plugs and wires. Since you know what wires lead from the lights to the harness; and what wires lead from the switches to the harness, you know what switch wires should be used to control what light etc. Then look on the...

Re: Choke not working/plungers stuck
Instead of trying to force them out you may wish to try soaking the carb bodies in solvent. You can get gallon buckets of solvent from most autoparts stores. I've used it before to clean carbs. Let it soak overnight and they come out looking like new.

Yeah, I'm kinda liking that stylized 46 as well. Has to be some connection to Rossi. Especially since he has expressed his affection for the 500's.

making RD500 wireharness work with RZ500
Have been working to get Mickey's RZ500 working and because I was having electrical problems, I decided to get a new wire harness. The old one had suffered some damage in the past, looked like from overcharging by the previous owner. No matter where I looked I could not find a RZ500 harness. It's pa...

Re: Mickey Krupa Tribute Build Thread
Well, I hope I got the video issues sorted. I didn't really want to use youtube bc of their privacy policy (you have none once you post) and so I used archive.org. It's a non-profit project to archive the electronic content of humanity for future reference. Nice to set simple goals, huh! Anyway you ...

Decided to put a lot of the bike and car projects on the backburner over the winter and get caught up on some house projects and fun s...

Fringe. I like that. LOL! No sense running in the herd, you cant see where you're going, can't see where you've been, and all you really see are a bunch of a$$holes in front of you!

Re: I hate to say it....
I think its also related to today's modern world. Everybody wants the "quick fix" "newest thing" and nobody's willing to learn how to fix anything anymore. I wouldn't even consider myself you the same league as people like you and Brian Turfrey; but I repair and maintain all my o...
