  1. He did say the woodruff key failed in the bike but what fixed and replace so I guess that issue has been fixed on the bike. I guess if there is a fix for it or if you are always having to mess with it..... Thanks on the hot start plug. Did not see that problem in the search engine. He also upgraded to the 04 starter system.
  2. I need to find out how to post a picture but the body of this bike is super clean and well taken care of. Complete powder coated frame with brand new white plastics and black tank. Has all new bearings throughout the frame. He tore the motor down to freshen it up and noticed the crank had some play in it. He has his eyes set on a ktm supermoto so is letting this one go. This thing is as clean as my new yz450 almost. This isnt a typical craigslist beater but I understand its more or less a "roller" as you stated. He is pretty much selling me the bike for $700 and the rims for $800.
  3. I am buying a 03 WR450 that is street legal and setup for supermoto from a buddy. The problem is, it needs a complete engine rebuild. He tore it down and said the crank bearings were bad so I figured I will buy a hot rod crank kit along with new piston kit. Not a big prob and local shop said they will rebuild motor for $200 labor so I can do this pretty cheap. My main question is, what do I need to go and replace? I heard these motors had horrible woodruff key problems. Would a new crank fix this or is there some upgraded parts I need to throw in? He has upgraded the starter motor he said. I just dont want to dump money into a new rebuild and have a part fail that I should of replaced when it was apart. I have done a few searches on the issue but I want to make sure I have everything figured out before I start dumping money into this bike. As a side note. The bike is titled, street legal, comes with super moto wheels and tires as well as the offroad wheels and tires which will most likely never be put back on. He is asking $1500 for the bike as is. Does this seem like a good deal? I realize that is still a lot for a bike that does not run but considering the supermoto parts and the hassle of making it street legal is already done, I think its a decent price. Oh course I can prob get him to come down on price.
  4. I just bought a 7x16 v nose enclosed trailer and I am wondering the best way to run power to the trailer will be. I want to run just some basic 110v lights inside the trailer. I will prob get some fluorescent strip lights for lighting. I will also want to run 110v volt small stereo, 20 inch tv, a couple fans, and maybe a game console. I want to know how to run all this to connect to a single honda EU2000I. All the posts I've read seem to talk about running 12v and 110v together. I have no need for 12v setup as I will always have the genny going. Would it be best to do the simple route and hook everything up to surge protector strips then hook the strips to an electrical cord that runs to the generator? Or should I hard wire everything to a breaker box, then run a cord to the generator. The Honda EU 2000 does not have the rv style 220v plug unless you run two so keep that in mind.
