Gentlemen,

I have an '86 CR500 languishing in my garage that is in need of a bit of fettling. The last time I ran it she smoked like an old chimney and I think water has gotten into the gearbox oil so am guessing the crankshaft oil-seal has gone?

Can someone please recommend me someone competent to carry out the necessary engine rebuild who will do a decent job but wont charge the earth - preferably located in Kent but I do travel about a bit with work so would consider further afield for the right person - thanks!

Taymar Racing may be able to help. I remember them from yonks ago, so might not be trading anymore...

About 10 minutes from Brands.

Thanks will give them a shout. Also came across RSK 2Strokes near Headcorn in Kent - anyone heard good things about them?
