'87 cr500
« on: August 21, 2013, 11:13:18 pm »
I'm starting a rebuild on an '87 cr500.
Wanted to run it up the road just to make sure everything worked before ripping it apart.
First attempt I snapped the foot piece off the kicker  :o
Fitted a later model cr500 kicker on for starting dutys.
It's been sitting around for a while as the air filter was bone dry,muffler packing was blown out.
So I stripped and cleaned the carby,oiled the air filter/fuel and repacked the muffler.
Started easy enough.

Cool bike!  Were those ladies from your family or just disgusted passers by?  ;D
