That seat is fantastic!! Really nice. Too bad those non-oem plastics don't do it justice.

Other wise it looks awesome.

Tried first firing it. It's as hard or harder to kick over than it used to be. No luck starting it I was in Nike airmaxs and my foot can only handle so much. Getting spark and it almost came to life a few times. Water pump drain plug is leaking, not sure if it just needs tightened or if I forgot a washer or seal or something.

Anyone know of anyone doing a compression release on either the stock or cool head cylinder heads?

Wow that seat pattern looks good. It really slims down the old girls waist. The yellow is a yellow that actually matches the plastic yellow. When you started with the yellow and black I thought it may look like a bumble bee. I thought not my taste but to each his own. Derrick, I must say she is a thing of beauty and looks awesome! well done. If she runs 1/2 as good as she looks you will be so happy! Nice build all around!-mike

Stock style graphics but done in black, yellow and gray would look bad-azz... like the guy from th U.K. had on his.... Austin was his name maybe?

For whatever reason, it took forever to get my fresh rebuild to start. But after I did, its easy to start. Jerry mentioned the 500 takes abit to prime with fuel.

It was in gear with no chain so as soon as it would fire it was kicking back real hard on me. Need to get a new shifter.

I now have about 4-5 hrs on my top end. Yesterday i was riding with a bunch of 4x4s and was stopping a lot probably kicked my quad 20 times. I dont know if it was starting easier as it was breaking in, or i was just getting better with my technique. I easily start my bike with 150 psi compression in sneakers on 1-2 kicks today.

So got the chain in and tried starting it in neutral this time it's still firing and kicking back real hard. I know Alkyzilla said timing is what causes kick back but I didn't mess with the time and the dots on my gears lined up. Might there be some time adjustment done behind the stator that I don't know about? I never pulled the fly wheel.

nope. no other marks. 5 kicks (not starting kicks) with choke on throttle shut. choke off, key on, roll past tdc and kick it hard.
where is your air screw at?
there is a jetting thread somewhere where guus have added their own jettimg. could help you some.
