... Hi Don! I am a guy to make a kick starthub in Quebec ,for this moment i d'ont have a other Knuckle but i will make other soon ! Thanks Remi Leclerc...
I can not get the clutch on my 175 to stop slipping. I got new plates and springs from Tony Murphy, installed them (I soaked the fiber plates first) and...
I've heard rumour of the wrong oil caausing that - never experienced it myself, however when in doubt, I go back to the manufacturer recommendations and work...
I guess I'll try ATF. I've seen lots of clutches slip with regular car oil, but I've never seen one slip because of Gear Saver, its specifically made for two...
Brian - please let us know what happens - I've seen lots of debates on gear oil vs atf and whatever - still, I can't imagine atf being bad, but I'm no expert ...
Folks, I also posted this question on the Vinduro list as there are several Can-Am and SWM (which use the same Rotax engines as we do) guys and one of them...
I see you are on the IT list too. I just bought an '82 IT465 last weekend, its got no plastic and the engine is toast, but I only paid $150 for it. I may...
Yeah - I;m all over - love most all old bikes IT465s are awseme bikes - undeerated I think. I liked the motor better than my 81 YZ465 - a little heavy though...
hey Brian - still got those YZ125 forks and wheels? ... _________________________________________________________________ Turn searches into helpful...
Steve, Thanks for the cones. They will come in for the project. Thank you to Brian for the post of the Frame. It came in handy. I will post the results soon....
I dont have any YZ forks, wish I did though the forks on my IT are rusty. The IT is going to get rebuilt, but its so rough its going to be a very long term...
Does any one have a good picture of what a 79 Qualifier looks like I am going to pick up my EBAY winnings and i cant wait to put it back to original . I have...
I have an original Qualifier from that era and also have the manuals. Let me know what you need. ... From: Brian Taylor To: Can-AmMotorcycles@yahoogroups.com ...
Hi Brian, I had a fair bit of trouble with my MX2's clutch slipping when I first built it up (from a basket case), and it didn't seem to matter what oil I...
I have had the same the experience as Martin with different plates for different baskets, also I found that the amount of oil you run makes a difference. I...
Brian, I noticed the pic of the Circle-F pipe for the 125 MX2 in your photo folder. I just bought that pipe from Kevin Felle. Can't wait to get that thing on...
I'm eventually going to get that pipe for my 175, mainly because it looks like it tucks in much closer than the stock pipe. Thats the only thing I really dont...
Does anyone have an exhause pipe for an MX-6 400? Beggars can't be choosers, so an MX-6b 400 or even a Qualifier 3 400 pipe would be considered. Thanks....
I've got the sickness to put together a big bore Can-am but need help on picking a motor. Does anyone have experience with the 400 vs. the 370 motor? It seems...
Steve, Generally speaking, you can just pick one and go for it. The MX-4's had sand cast cases, and were about 5 pounds heavier than the MX-5 370's. The...
Dang it - now you've got me thinking about yet ANOTHER project (406 powered rat bike....) ... 4's ... same ... but my ... into ... chassis, ... know ... ...
Hello everyone, I just joined and thought I would introduce myself. I rode CanAms as a kid and just finished restoring a 400 Qualifier. It's good to be back! I...
Congrats Can-Am enthusiasts. The brand is alive and kickin'. We are now up to 54 members. Some great big bore projects coming together here. As Steve just...
