I am having a problem with my 4 strokes. They are slow to idle down.
This first happened on my DR400 and now is going on with my DR650! I
cured this problem on the 400 by changing carbs but there must be a
better way to cure this problem. I have checked for vacuum leaks on
the intake boot and changed the o-ring and checked for cracks, seems
fine. WHAT IS THE CAUSE??? Any help is greatly appreciated. Oh
yeah....Project RM500F is in the works......beware!
Thanks, Jay

We'll miss the next race because we are doing a vintage hare scramble
down here, but will make teh last race plus 3 Hammer and Tongs races
during the summer; Washougal, Goldendale and Longview. MD.

I know at the local shop I go to they have a tail light set up with a
rubber flap for the plate that mounts to the fender. Also you could
probably just hook up a Maier headlight/front plate and be OK. MD

I am looking at 77 xt 500 that is very good mechanically but has no
lights or battery. I rode a tt500 about 30 yrs ago that had small
headlight and taillight hooked up. This is what I woud want if I bought
bike as our local enforcement is very lax and I wouldn't be doing any
real street riding at night. Just something that burns. Anyone know how
this could be done now.

Thanks

Honda called for ATF in these forks. I normally use that but have switched, or at least tried various new fangled fork oils of differing wgts.

 

If you like a soft front end, by that I mean, absorb everything but not bottom out ... I think ATF works best. Otherwise, no more than 10w ... max!

 

I've got the spec at home for q'ty and will look it up and post. You may need to remind me...remind me...remind me...get the drift?

Not really looking, but have seen some of the bikes and they want a
lot for them and some are 'Funky'. I have the RM250, MX250, CR480,
Penda, and SL100 for now. MD

Hey, Theuns!!!!

Good to hear from ya!! What kinda shocks are available down there for you guys in South Africa??? Can you get some Progressive shocks? They're the old S&W shocks, & are a pretty good deal for the money..... Hope you can get that Yamaha out & have some fun with it!!!

Mad Dog, it was'nt your price at all that changed my mind about those fender/number plate combos..... It's the fact that I'd have to do quite a bit of exhaust re-routing/muffler changing to be able to use that number plate, & still clear the rear tire & the number plate. I simply don't wanna go through all that. And I hope you can come up with one of those RD400s, or SR500s, or the Beemer you mentioned. All really great bikes, fer shure....

Bobby, Congrats on the new H-D!!! Are you gonna still ride a few of the VMX races?

Best Fishes, Jimmie

How was everyones Christmas?? Did anyone get any new bike toys? I got a
street bike for Christmas and the weather has sucked everyday! I have
the day off and it is SNOWING ! ! No riding going on around here not
today thats for sure! I hope everyone has a get "NEW YEARS"         SD

Hey Theuns, It's nice to hear about things like SUN and WARM...lol I
wish we had some of that here.You need to put the shocks at the top of
your list it sounds like:-)Have a great day. SD aka MXBG aka Bobbyg

Will do Stray Dog, Those plates look pretty trick on the XR and XL's, and you can'y  beat the price.  They even make those CR's look like factory bikes.  Next race bring the jerseys' or send them to me. MD

Lap Dog, still need one of those number plate rear fender combo's? I
just got a red one. MD

MD,

Thanks, but no, I've kinda rid myself of the idea of one of those (neat, I think...) number plates.... I had no idea those things were as pricey as they are!!!! Rick (Dought, I believe???), the guy that runs Vintage Iron in SoCal somewhere, has 'em. When I emailed him about them, he eventually responded back that it was $150 or so!!! Skeered the Heck outta me!!!! I asked him if he was kidding, thinkin' that was a little bit on the high side for a back fender. He emphatically stated there was a market for them, & that was the price, take it or leave it....

I've since determined I have no need for one of 'em, even if it was 1/3 that price. Thanks, MD, for askin', but I'd rather use that money for entry fees....

Hey, Mad Dog, & All !!!

Hope everyone is set to have a really Great Christmas!!

Projects???? After I get some work done on finishing one of the rooms in our basement, I can squeeze in some work on the bike projects. Been amassing some rebuild parts for an XR500 engine, & I bought a '98 KTM 300 MXC recently. It needs a coupla minor things (handlebars, front rim, radiator guards.....) to be in shape for trail or track. It's kind of a cool bike; defintely way lighter, faster, & easier to ride than "Tank #23", ya know.... I actually have all the parts I need for the KTM, except for coolant/antifreeze, & gas to mix with some Golden Spectro, but no time for worky-worky..... And gettin' used to mixin' oil/gas again, plus dealing with coolant (first bike I've ever owned that's a waterpumper) is defintely gonna take some gettin' used to, for me anyways....

No riding here, until I get some projects done, or it dries up a little, sigh.... Been really soggy & cold around here. Most of the off-road type of riding areas I've been wantin' to hit have a whole buncha snow coverin' them up. Just drivin' there could be a challenge. If I can ever get the KTM ready, I may think of trying some of these indoor riding areas around here (Clark County Fairgraounds, Salem Fairgrounds, Hindsight, & etc...... Sometimes, on the XR, I kinda feel like I'm "in everyone's way", & just trying to "survive" out there, rather than riding, when I'm on a modern track with youger, modern-bike riders, ya know. I might, possibly be able to clear a few obstacles with the KTM, rather than "be" an obstacle, hee hee....

Bobby, like MD said, we been missin' the Stray Dog! Hope things are well with ya. What're you up to???

Mad Dog, & everybody else, what's on your "Dirt Bike To Do" list???? Is there any dust to ride in down your way, Mad Dog?

Best Fishes, Jimmie
