My 98 doesn’t have that roller at 4:32... I’m going to inspect the frame in a bit to see it got hacked off or something

Any chance you can show a 91 or newer cr500r linkage?

I'm rebuilding the 01 model and i'm struggling so much with the long screw that holds the shockarm and the chainslider. Both nuts on each side of the shockarm are stuck. I've tried penetrating oil, torch, a breaker bar and an impacto wrench. Any help would be appreciated. Ty for your tutorials!

Nice video, John. What about the "dog bone"?

[motomash]

Hi mate I did the linkage on my 98 cr250 today but I still have a very slight amount of play but not as bad as it was. Is this normal?

My bolt from the linkage won’t come out

Having trouble with the bearings in the frame
