Genius

Kick started a 490 in flip flops. Impressive

Beautiful bike mate. Classic Harley looks.

great job! absolute beast of a bike and you did a killer job on the build. I have an 89' I am currently building and racing in the Revolution class here in the U.S. Cheers to the yz490.

Restoring a 87 yz490 at the moment. Really like the side panel decals on yours, any chance you know where I can find them?

I still have my 86 490. Love it. EGR porting, balanced , lightened and Polished crank and rod. The head mod I had done to mine was for more compression

Brilliant video nice bike 🤘🏻👍👨🏻‍🔧

Nice🥰 I have a 21 model with stage one and Vance and Hines big radius. Almost the same as yours and also have the screaming eagle air filter. I went chrome pipes and filter box. Also have the same sissy and rack. Nice taste brother. I’ve got 28,000 on mine now and faultless mechanically. 😎👍

2004 FLSTF in White. 🇦🇺

Yeah I'd give her a thumbs UP as well!! I've got the 2019 model and it's a dream to ride and classy to behold. ENJOY

Head mod is the most important single thing you can do on a 490. Changing squish band and rejetting makes it run clean down low. Glad you guys know the specs.

Hi Jason...but...the sissybar is original HD ? Your set is exactly as I want. Very good

Ho visto è una bellissima moto anche perché ce l'ho pure io la 490 la Yamaha uguale identica a me è del 1984 è bellissima come la mia

Beautiful example , do you know how it compares to other 500s

I watched a vid of a guy with 490 who had either advanced the timing to much or the wrong ignition and when he kicked it over it ran backwards

Hey mate, looks fantastic! Do you still have it? I’m trying to decide on one myself.

Hey mate, what did you use for the joiner between the to lengths? Cheers

Simple ideas 💡 the best and lightweight to well done 👍

I have been looking at purchasing this bike. I think when the bags and fairing are off it is one of the best looking m8s. The front end looks great and a pity the windscreen covers it.

Will need to make one.. 3metre 25mm water pipe. Two 19mm T piece joiners 1x19mm 150mm joiner Cut 4x 13.5cm lengths off of the 3metre pipe. Cut whats left in half Join legs and T piece together and DONE. Thanks mate, i made one for my double swag ive had since 2010. Works perfect. Cheers 🍻. Packs up inside the swag too. Can pin this post 🤙

Bloody nice mate. I'm just about to get one. 2022, I think.

What are those pipes they sound awesome!!

Mate, you're fkn Legend. this fixed my Tigerz11 swag 100%...a little trimming to get the right lenght, but wow.. NO more sag in my swag...

Lovely bike mate. I'm in NZ. '04 KX500 low hour and '01 CR500R in the shed zero hours. Not impressed with you starting it wearing flip flops. I started my KX500 wearing my Nikes and it kicked back and tore my calf muscle apart, along the length of it. 2 days in Hospital. 24 stitches. i wasn't wearing shorts but a long pair of training pants.

What is the length of the pipe please

What length is each pipe please?

Have had mine since 2018....tried all the HDs.... nothing came close....the best of both worlds....cruiser and tourer.....very nimble yet powerful...... comfortable.....a bit of a chopper look which i love and yet with all the layest tech.....just a smart choice

Thanks for your idea and video. A good cheap fix... My swag is a DUNE but the problem is the same... it's a pity the manufacturers didn't put a bit more effort into sorting it out.

Could you add a link for the poly pipe purchased? Looks like a great idea that I would like to try out. Could you also do a quick tutorial on making the ends and middle part of the hoop?

Lovley looking bike mate sounds mint fair play to you

Mate that is beautiful. Im looking to buy one atm, 1 is a 1984 yz 490 and the other an 86 model id prefer the later but both are mint.

😮

@jasonracer hey mate I’m here from the swag video (I can’t seem to comment) I’ve went out and bought most of what I can to make the anti-sag supports! I’m just wondering if you could share the measurements for the flex pipes that worked best for you? Im also struggling a bit to get a good way to connect the two in the middle 100% (I’m no handy man lol) cheers mate

That's a beautiful bike! I'm 99% sure my next bike will be a Harley and my heart tells me to get a Fatboy, but my head says the Sport Glide will give me the same level of pride and pleasure, but with more flexibility and usability. They're expensive of course, but you get so much bike for your money! Congratulations on a great choice. Ride safe and be well brother.

Beautiful bike! I thought they got discontinued but maybe just for the US market.

Nice looking and sounding bike. I'm thinking of getting a Harley and if I did then I'd definitely look at one of these depending on the seat height

Sick build cobber 👍, sounds absolutely beautiful. I’ve been riding since I was 9, I’m nearly 48 now. & I never came across one of these beauty’s. My neighbour had a yz 80 87, & his brother had a yz 125 88. We used to cane those bikes, & they never let us down. Great bikes, but this beast here is on another level. This “ thing “ would be horrifically fast, it even sort of look’s evil. Top job sir 👍. I ridden so many bikes before, but I’d love to take one of these babies for a little spin.

Awesome bike

Nice bike, very familiar. With a bit of jetting,pipe and taller gearing I loved it! Never needed to touch 1st gear

Love it!❤

Un bijoux magnifique très rare bonjour de France 🇫🇷👍

I've got permanent scares from those machine!😂

6:17 I think the bike looks great just like that, a little fairing and nothing else

Great to see another Aussie making videos

Absolutely beautiful, thanks for sharing

Sounds like a snare at a DCI competition. I friggin love it.

Hi Jason, I spoke to Chris today top organise jets for the Air Striker conversion on my 490 (going to get him on to my KX500 engine also), how did you do to absord the 15mm (ish) reduction in carb length? I can see on you other video that you have some sort of extension/adapter at the air boot/carb junction but I can't see enough to work it out. Thanks mate

I had one of those when they first came out. Just plain stock it was a monster....a scray monster ,almost killed myself a few times way to much power just goose it a little and you will eat the hande bar.. All I can say is you better know how to ride before you take on a beast like this.. Nice bike
