KX500 water pump modification

That will be sweet!
But until I do, the saga continues...

[Motorrad]

have you considered what this big ass hole does to the flow?


If I were on this mission of counting my pennys. Id tig it up, and smooth it out to match .. then if you want to drain the system, either pull the cover, or pull the lower hose...

Awesome!
4 more cent's into the morass of my life

I took the high edges off the impeller... No biggie.

Now that Motorrad gave me another idea I'll be working on that tomorrow Or not

For those of us with 100Watt of power on board.. we could always take the cheater way out.

[Sandblaster]

Yeah but what's the fun in that?
Mr, MZB

That is quite the flow.
I wonder how that compares with the clearanced cover and the motor at 6K?

Halfway down the page... Guy running system as total loss to see just that

Yeah, looks weak in comparison...

First trip to MR. Tig didn't work out so good
That's ok, he works right next door...
In all fairness he told me that he had trouble with it and this might be the result after I cleaned it up.
