Boy those big bore's sound sweet don't they !!

 

[86 400 XC]

Love em...

Got the nice tank in the house in a safe place.

Saturday I might go for a rip.

 

[86 400 XC]

So i got the internal flywheel the bike never had and hope to give that a test soon.
11 tooth front sprocket to snap her up a bit with the 4 speed box.
Might be time to see what some added timing will do with the easy starting situation.

Internal rotor, 11t sprocket, advanced timing... Reminds me of the Jeff Foxworthy "Hey, y'all, watch this..."

 

[huskybear]

Hang on!

Time it to the 1984 timing specs, NO kick back or broken cases

 

[86 400 XC]

Or some where in between 82 and 84 timing specs will be tested

And for the love of the Bronco here is a update video

lol at the tune that was playing on the radio, not planned.

How are you liking the 4spd gear box on the 500? Any desire to make it six speed now that you've been out riding?

 

[86 400 XC]

I hate not having a normal first gear, feels like a salt flat bike.
You have ride the clutch a lot or dump it with a ton of gas.

 

[adam6402]

I see you picked up an 11 tooth for the front. What are you running on th back sprocket wise? Debating whether I should replace the 4spd with a six speed on my 500 while I have it torn apart.

 

[86 400 XC]

I am going to put on the 11 tonight and try it, on the rear is a 56 tooth.

 

[86 400 XC]

Wow the 11 tooth made a huge gain in first, felt dang near normal.
Low revs in first gear were responsive, not laggy or a bit of a bog.

That little sprocket looks like a chain stretcher though. lol
I got this 60 tooth rear coming from Huskydoggg and then was thinking about going back to a 12/13 front.
When it has the best hit all around with sprocket swaps, mag/flywheel swap time.

 

[86 400 XC]

Well the 11 tooth and the flywheel made this bike awesome. Easy start still and revs instant in first gear, U turn in putt mode with no clutch not even close to a stalling situation.

Steve,
Yeah they said the 4spd was really only good for serious MX, in the original tests, & the 6spd were much more user friendly in the 84 tests.
I'd watch using that small of a sprocket, sure would suck throwing the chain thru the cases, & messing up such a awesome original bike .
I'd go the 12/13 tooth with the 60t, if it was my bike.

[86 400 XC]

Well the 13 and 60 sprockets work like a damn! Man was i flying today on the MX track

 

[ruwfo]

oh yeah , you go Steve. I was going to race my 500 this weekend, but my back was hurting me so i stayed home, probably next weekend.
