sent my crank off with my brother to have the new proX rod pressed into the stock cr500 crank. last tuesday I shipped off my cases to Adam Millar at MRE to have the TWIRP port job started on. Hope to have this R back up and running around 1st of the year if things go smooth

i have not done business with MRE, but i almost had him do a decomp head for me. from what ive seen those guys can probably do good work..

Tell me about it jon, I want my shocks done, my asv levers, my seat cover, front rims and tires, and my +2+1 Walsh stem chrome and fat bar clamp.

no probably about it. MRE did the decomp head i have and it is freaking perfect. The pics of work i have seen posted online for the TWIRP port jobs i am having done is immaculate. Cant say enough good things about MRE, Adam has been awesome to do business with so far and spends anytime you need texting and talking over the phone

I skipped the decompression valve and my exhaust port bridge was scalloped correctly. Kicks perfect. Too many old 5 hundred bottom end s trashed from over bores and no trim work. Ever seen one that would be fine if the kicker held up? What's this TWIRP?

Seems all I get to do to mine is look at it this weekend. Freezing rain and rain and more rain don't make for good riding....Should have a couple parts showing up hopefully so I can at least work on it a little

Nice looking bike fred, I removed paint from parts for customers and started getting them all polished up. So far I have a stock throttle cover done, front mc cover and a mc guard done so far. Started on the omf lovers for the rad and then onto the baldwin Hubs.
