try heating and scraping off what you can and then char and pick off the rest cold.
Could also try wrapping it in a cloth soaked with acetone. Not sure if it will effect the finish of the exhaust though.
Hey - Selling my wr450 and on the market for a F4i and plan on setting up for stunt...only problem is I don't know of anywhere where I can stunt w/o a cop call lol. Anywhere from Barrie to Markham (any place in between too like aurora maybe willing to go as far down as York U) is where I'd...
Time to let my baby go :( I'll be moving in the summer and won't have somewhere to ride off road, Will trade for a sport bike of similar value or less + cash, wouldn't entirely mind a project bike to tinker with.
edit - changed to Barrie kijiji instead of Toronto kijiji...
you can easily check the suspension by jumping on the bike a bit, get a buddy or seller to hold the bike and you push and pull on the bars, multiple times and dropping your *** into the seat. If the forks are tweaked you'll feel it while jumping on the bike.
If the seller is hell bent on you not...
Totally fine for me, but then again I tear down and rebuild bikes that I buy. Unless the bike has been kept by a professional mechanic, there is no way the average person would keep their bike in as good as condition as mine. I tear the bike down to the frame, look for anything that needs to be...
OK so the last thing to repair on my Wr450 would be its nasty habit to STALL when it idles. So here's how it goes
ride for a bit engine works great, tonnes of power in every gear very smooth through the rpm range, close the throttle and come to a stop and let the bike idle, very quickly it will...
after lots of reading it sounds like you are bang on. Im going to do an oil change and order the seals tomorrow. [First time with a bike with a water cooling system. Im use to air cooled LOL]
thanks!
So today I picked up my new 06wr450f, upon further inspection at my house I noticed A small hole on the bottom of the engine casing by the water pump. Uhuo.... So again started up the bike. No leaks! yay!, but in the back of the pickup [started and let it idle in it for a bit so my friends...
Shouldn't be any problem there that I know of should be ok as long as the gas is mixed with the oil correctly in the tank, but you probably will have to rebuilt the top end of the engine occasionally especially if you take full potential and use of its top end power band.
One of my friends has a...
How well a bike does on a track or anywhere depends on how it handles and its power and weight. Imho, two strokes are better than 4 strokes for racing because they are light as hell and go like snot. If you would be allowed to race with 4 stroke SM's I'd rock a killer bee any day. probably will...

Re head gasket: I didn't guy before me did it was stalling
I found an add for a WR450F 2006 the guy says the bike has the airbox uncorked, and replaced the head gasket...replaced head gasket, do you think that the bike is running way too hot? or is this common.
Alright So. I am selling my 01 TTR225 and going to upgrade to a WR450F [any recommendations on year?]. I was looking into also doing some trail riding, but it would be mighty handy to ride it to the trails instead of borrow my biddies pickup truck to haul it everywhere and it would be a cow to...
