just ordered wheels and brake kit and would love to see pics of your 501's to get an idea of what other people have done. this is a cool bike and id love to see what it takes to make this thing a fun supermoto machine.

I fully tuned a 501 two years ago in the UK. guy lost his job and then had to break it - well least he thought that that was his only option.
what is there to know? you can bore yours out to a 550. you can fit a cam, bigger valves, keihin carb, there are several exhausts out there all getting old now. FP and Doma are but two of those to choose from. a 41mm keihin is the more desirable one to choose from?
if strictly racing you can go for a MX ignition and flywheel. I set up a 470 for a budget hill climber in the west country and he cleans up with pretty much the above set up!

My 501 made a fantastic supermoto with all the right bits! The most important bit for me was the 6pot front brake! Made riding it a pleasure! That was a couple of years ago now and as Taffy said I lost my job and ended up breaking it! I am looking for a nice 650 now I've had chance to sort myself out!
