Hey guys, i would like to know all of the sites where i can find parts for my 500. I have looked aroudn quite a bit and its hard to find what im looking for. I want to buy like pipes etc, handle bars, risers you know the deal. I want make it powerful. Ive already done alot to the machine as is. Ive redone the clutching courtesy of Flagg Clutching (thanks Tyler), SRX belt, new jet settings, turned the engagement to 4500 rpms i believe and some other misc mods. Please help me find sites where i can look through parts for my machine. Thank you soo much!

Gotcha... i went to UMass Amherst, so i know the area out there pretty well, used to go off-roading in leverett and belchertown all the time.

I'd watch ebay for parts for your sled, that's where i get everything for my SRX...
 
Nice, im not used to dealing with Ebay. Everything i have bought for my sled and all the 6 yamahas in my family have been through Popolis Honda in Westfield. We are very good friends with a guy there so we buy from there. My dads SRX is now a drag machine. Not quite pro stock but its working there.
 
Can anyone post a picture of there yamaha with handle bar riser blocks etc installed. i would like to see a close up pic so i can see the unit. then i would also like to see it froma lil further away. thank you!! Im looking to buy 2, 3 or 4 inch. i havent decided thats why id like to see the pics!
 
do a search on here for bar risers. lots have put them on sxr 600/700/vipers.


do the reed notch to it. crispend my throttle up on my sxr500.
 
Here is a pic from far away. Two to choose from, second one was taken today.

3" powermadd non-pivot style riser block.

This thing really changes the sled, especially in the way it handles. Instalation was easy but make sure you mark which direction the bar clamps face before you remove them as they are different front and back. I needed to get the longer throttle cable kit as I didnt have enough clearance.

Riser Block
 
Hey any handle bar risers will work on that sled. up to 2". You can get them used on here from sxr, srx, ect.....

I put 2" on mine. I recommend it.

How mechanically incline are you..willing to drill, cut?
 
Im willing to do the whole thing. Im going to put Sportech Articulating Risers on i believe. I like the more vertical set up for my bars to be sitting. Im not into the classic, when the bars kind of come out at you. i like up straight and up down pretty much.
