New Jersey sr500 tracker/scrambler

dropping the wheels off tonight and I placed the order for the sparck moto rectifier I don't think it comes with a terminal so hopefully I can reuse the old one
 
Wheels dropped off, hope he can get to them quick or else I'll be moving this thing with no wheels on it :(

Wish I just paid to get them done the first time so I could be on to carb jetting already...

Fixed my gauge mount the stock gauges are enormous but it's all I have right now

Once the wheels are on I need to adjust the clutch it's hard to pull and timing chain tensioner then it's ready to go... Kinda :eek:

Sweet is this thing plug n play or do I need to put wires where they need to go?

You will need to sort the rectifiers cables with your wiring loom's, then finally fit the connector to the r/r in the correct order, so you can plug and unplug easily

when I started doing the search to find a replacement I was bummed to find out there were no alternates then I was bummed when I found out how much a rewind would cost... there's always the complete electrical upgrade kits but it was a bit more than I need for a internally stock engine.
 
Finally an update!

Brought the wheels to a shop cause I kept fuckin up tubes, turns out the rear was fine and held air so the guy pulled the tube from the front put a new one in and pinched it!!!

He put some sealer shit on the side wall/bead and a tubeless valve stem so now front is tubeless hope it holds but I think it will be fine I've done a little searching and there isn't a difference between the tubed and tubeless rims on the sr's apparently...

Mounted everything but the speedo drive is not sitting the way it's supposed to and the front brake is rubbing I'll take care of that once I get it out of the basement and to my new place

Almost attempted pushing it up the stairs but I don't have fluid in the front brake :(

Actually, there is and it was WELL vetted close to a decade ago on the SR500 forum. It was memorable because a few got close to getting banned over it. Short answer from all that, if the wheel doesn't say "TUBELESS TIRE APPLICABLE", then use a tube. BTW.....there's more to it than just the bead. Those of us that were around back when mag wheels started to appear more and more on Japanese bike know this is true. Use a tube.
