« Last post by motorman455 on November 29, 2020, 12:09:04 AM »I don't notice anything odd about my new style triple clamps and Emig stem. I also have an underbar steering damper and newer style forks. I love the setup.

KX500 Original / Re: Jetting a 38mm airstriker
« Last post by RoostDaddy on November 27, 2020, 02:16:58 AM »I don’t think you will have to much trouble jetting it, once you find a good baseline. I know some people like the Yamaha dual tapers and others like the Suzuki triple tapers. I guess it depends on what you have or feel more comfortable with.

« Last post by swindog on November 26, 2020, 05:36:05 PM »Mmmm most interesting.. I've heard someone say one of the benefits of the 38 airstriker is they are easier to jet. Doesn't sound that way!
Thanks for the reply lads, I'll get my hands on a N8RW needle and have a crack with that. Will also start with the 48 pilot. Real keen to see how it goes

KX500 Original / Re: Pantera Electric Start
« Last post by jeffro351 on November 26, 2020, 02:26:56 AM »My riding buddy put one in his cr500 conversion. It worked flawlessly after he replaced the solenoid it come with. The one it came with seemed to be a cheaper lawnmower type. We replaced it with a streetbike type from cyclegear and it has been perfect since. The one it came with would hang open. My friend just purchased the smallest lithium or agm battery he could find and we put it in his airbox.
