Pastrana racing an rm 500?

If he really wanted to be special we would have fit the LT500 motor in there. Maybe that's what it is :?

Looks like a CR500 motor, pretty sweet looking though I'm not an aluminum frame fan (too much feed-back off-road).  I can see why he'd used a 500 2str in a newer chassis for a rythm/whoop race.  Our '04 KX250/500SF conversion is to this day, the best bike I've ever ridden in the whoops.  There is no wrong gear, it just goes straight and stays on-top with next to no effort.

not surprised here...Flubba's one of the fastest rhythm section guys to exist...

here's one of MANY YouTube vids of Pastrana on his CRMZ-500 that've been posted in the past few hours...note the back flip at the end!
