Suzuki Quadracer HQ - General Discussion / Re: 2024
« Last post by Q2W on October 17, 2024, 02:34:43 pm »
Hey guys! long time!  My poor bike has been in storage for since 2020.  Went to the dunes 1 time since then with my then GF (now wife).  Bought her an yfz450.  Had a semi-bad wreck while riding a 3rd gear wheel.   Bike and I are okay now.  Since then I bought a couple of Tecate 3's and am currently building a shop at my house to get to work on restoring them.

I haven't messed with 500 in forever but 20 years ago I had the same issue. Stator tested okay, but would only muster up enough power to spark every 3 to 5 kicks. Replaced the source coil and she fired every time.

Evey time I ran a crap chain on a built motor it slung off. I've had good luck with DID in the past.

LT500R - Engine / 88 LT500R not starting
« Last post by CP43 on May 14, 2024, 01:13:51 pm »
Picked up a couple of months ago, knew it wasn't running.  Here's what I've done:
-taken carb apart and cleaned, new pilot and main jet, new needle and seat, new mixture screw
-cleaned an absolute disaster of a mouse nest out of the filter.  Didn't see it initially, but took of the filter after not getting a start and all types of foam and insulation was jammed in their...cleaned up what got into the reeds, reeds look like new.
-cleaned gas tank, new fuel petcock and line, fresh gas mixed 32:1
-new B8ES spark plug
-compression test at 135 psi

Tried starting and using choke, would get 1 almost like it's trying to start, then that's it...I'd step away, following the starting procedure listed on this forum and get 1 almost fire, then nothing after a bunch of kicks

So I took off the flywheel, key looks ok, but still ordering a new one.  I went to look at the stator to see if timing was correct, and I'm not seeing a notch to even line up.  Anyone else ever see this?  I tested the stator and all came back ok, just noticed the R/Y and B/W wires aren't connected, which I'm assuming is because the removed the headlight. 

Any other ideas here?  Do I try to pick up a new stator?

So what’s a good chain to run. No crap chains either.

I think I'm gonna finaly sell some Quadracer parts. Powder coated 89 250 frame, almost new small reed 250, might list the Black Dog Zilla as a roller and a few other parts. Wanted to tell my quadracer friends before I list them.
