Engine rebuilders

Post by Repeater »

Fellas,

I've come to the conclusion I don't have the time to research the parts and outsource stuff I can't do. I' ready to drop some cash to rebuild the motor and hop it up a bit. I plan on doing the Fram body and stuff. I can sort all that out then send off the motor.

So who do you recommend for a good build. this would be a weekend warrior and maybe tack a few laps at the track. I currently race with CVMA in CA on a GSXR 600. I'm slow as heck butI enjoy every lap.

Also after market cans seem to be only coming from the UK.

Any parts recommended would be great.

Thanks.

Dennis

I sent my T500 crank and jugs to Bill Bune Enterprises in Minnesota. The rebuilt the crank, bored the cylinders, bead blasted the jugs and sent the whole thing back with new pistons. I had to assemble the engine myself, but that's pretty easy on this particular bike.
