To all Can-Amers... For all those that are looking for replacement levers and perches, take a look at the link below. I realize that this is only a clutch...
Here is a link that offers a different clutch plate that the normal, OEM replacement. Please call to confirm that these plates will work in the clutch basket...
I would like to wish Al Conte a happy birthday today. I will be nice and not mention the number as it might entail something from a half century ago. Happy...
Hey thanks George! Sorry haven't been on in a couple of days. Yes it is true, I just eclipsed the mid century mark. George, have a great time at Elizabeth...
How many cc's does the 250 MX-6B take, I do not have any type of owner's or repair manual yet and filling the crankcase is the last thing I need to do. (the...
... The small 6mm allen bolt is the drain plug, the "big" one with the 17mm hex head that looks like a drain plug is the kickstart detent set bolt, DO NOT...
You want to buy the knuckle from Tony Murphy. He has the best replacement design. ... From: Don To: Can-AmMotorcycles@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, October...
Sorry; Tony was listed on Mike Rydman's page so I didn't include the contact information. Here it is: Tony Murphy-Rotax (661) 944-1635 27701 Largo Vista Rd ...
Just that, from my experience, it is a bad idea. I have never seen one of those Mikuni oil pumps fail. And, Can Ams will run ten times better with the oil...
I am planning to remove the pump on my '74 175, not because I dont like or trust oil injection, I know from working with watercraft that they are bulletproof....
Does anyone know if a mx2 crank seal will work in an mx1 case ( had larger diameter flywheel taper). I have an mx2 crank and seal I would like to use but don't...
Brian, I'd exhaust all posssibilities about what could be causing the problem before removing the oil injection. Might be worth it to do a total engine...
I certainly agree with Al. I have been around Can Ams since 1973 and can say some things with a fair degree of certainty. First, they shouldn't smoke...
While I do not agree that Bing's are better than Mikuni's (no OEM is using them for a reason), I do agree that there's no valid reason for eliminating the oil...
I respectfully disagree with my fellow Can Am fanatic regarding the carburetion. When Bombardier designed the Can Am, the engineers chose a Bing carb, even...

Thanks for the ideas. I'll go a little more into detail and see if anyone has more ideas. First let me say, I do not want to remove the oil injection if I dont...
I run Amsoil in my injection system in my flat tracker and it hardly smokes at all. I did run poorly because the bing was wore right out,so I put a new mikuni...
... I had thought of setting the pump at a lower than full setting because of the better oils. My Bing was worn out, it was in sad shape. When I put on the...
OK, I added four cut down pictures of the race this weekend to the Yahoo group photo gallery. In three you can see the bike smoking heavily. At the start of...
