Guest Nickjaxe Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Hi guys, what year did the blue top 582 come on the market. Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maj Millard Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 At a guess I would say 99..........I just happen to be looking at the parts manual on the 582 today, most differences between the grey and the blue are external, and most of the internals are the same.....................

farri Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 G`Day Maj, I was about to search the net to find out the difference between the grey and blue head 582 and saw your post. Is there any difference in the crankshaft and bearings?, some time ago,I heard they had beefed this area up in the blue. Cheers, Frank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maj Millard Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Yes Frank quite possibly, I didn't get into checking part numbers down that far but I will next time I've got the disc in. Rotax does seem to improve a few things as the new models come out lately............................................................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzietriker Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Hi Gents, I can confirm that the blue top 582cc motor came into use around mid 1999 as my 582 grey top was the last one to be fitted by the trike manufacturer (airborne) in April 1999 cheers Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
