I bought this quad from california with a stock front end and a +8 swingarm, set up for drag racing. I am putting it back to an MX machine. Heard there are only 6 of these CR500 Laeger Chassis.

O Yea the motor is right around 90HP

So did you convert the no link rear to a CR500 link on the quad in the pics?

I'm confused haha...is this a 250r frame with a cr500 link that is actually running a no link swinger???

I cant find out what linkage setup it is, so I found a setup that will work for the mean time. CR500, stock, crf links all dont work.

Wow those front shocks are way too short for this application,just looking @ the angle of the t-pin.

They are 19.75" long they are set at the lowest they will go. Like I said it is still in the build process. I was setting it up for ice racing, but now I am doin something different.

I know your still in the process.. but just thought I'd let you know the "correct" length for your protrax shocks should be 19" Now I know pretty much whatever fits a protrax but just an FYI.

I know that, I am just trying to make this rideable and gather parts down the road. It is hard to find parts for this machine especially for the rear.

That rear end looks like what they call a "no-link" cuz it looks like it bolts directly to the swinger and frame

Very cool. Would love to see a video of a trx500r on a mx track dominating. Keep building.
