Yo! First post here in a few years. I'm going to try and update this thread as I wrench on this bike and get it going.
I bought this sr500 sight unseen on Ebay. It appears to be an old race bike, or in the process of becoming one. Unfortunately, the previous owner didn't know much of the history. Just that an ex-racer was putting it together before he sold it.
This is my first sr500 and I'm excited to get this old bag running! She has some go fast bits on, a GSXR front end and wheels, Tracy body kit, a steering stabilizer, quick pull throttle, oil cooler, Mikuni carb, big brakes, swing arm, etc.
I hope that you dudes can install some knowledge about the platform and this bike in particular. First thing first, I have a few questions:
WTF is this thing attached to my throttle cable? some funky accelerator pump?
Does anyone know who made the swingarm and rear sets? Curious if i ever need parts.
Mikuni vm34? i'm not positive what carb i have.
Thanks in advance!
