Heres mine

Picked this up a little while ago, with changing jobs and moving house etc, not had any time. Finally was able to get it out for a couple of hours last weekend.
I havn't done any thing other than replace front sprocket which had two teeth missing. If it continues to go as well as it did on the weekend I'll spend some money on it.

Sweet... just watch for the dreaded siezed cam in the cam carrier, no bearings, just runs off the top of the head...

Nothing quite spells out the irony of Honda's current 2stroke policy like the "CR500" does :twisted:

I have just refurbed the steel frame with new bearings, bolts, brackets, rubber mounts (farkin everything really) as this thing likes to destroy itself regularly as anyone who owns a 2st knows they are like a masturbating robot. (I know I have seen one)
This will see it through until i get the alloy CRF frame ready for it.
Well worth the effort, this thing will rock in a fornights time on the next Club ride in the dunes and there is nothing that can scare you more thoroughly and excite you at the same time than a bigbore 2st can :twisted:


Oh yeah, I have a coupla Husqvarna's in the shed too IIRC, I suppose i better put some photos of them up 8)

Awesome which model is it?

Brand spanking or second hand?
I'm looking at dirt squirters at the moment too though I had it sorted with a TE 310 but I get 10 people telling me to run and one saying buy it.

So I'm in a quandary....lol

Why are they saying to run? great bike, i've seen them hand hills and beach sand.. pretty good all rounder i reckon - esp for starting out..
The only way to really know is to test ride it for yourself, after all it's your arse not theirs..
... test ride everything.. im going too.. mainly cause i can :twisted:
