anyone here ever race a CR500R or CR500AF?
1alldave:
Mike, I think any big bore fan would like one-unless you are a pure desert racer.The K5 is just better in this role. One thing for sure, if you want to try one,you wont get hurt on the deal if you buy a clean used one. These bikes are way durable and hold their value. My brother bought a used 2000AF for $6500 after riding mine. He rode it for a year and a half, put very little into it, and sold it for $6500.Service usually has 1 or 2 used ones on it's web site. Like you,I still love my K5.Both of my bikes have the same motor work-trued cranks,ported,bored carbs,big compression.The K5 is about three bikes lenghts faster on the hill.I may not be able to afford the trickest truck or a nice trailer, but 2 stroke 500s will always rule my wallet.Long live REAL open bikes.............

When I had my 2003 KX500 I smoked my buddy's (i forgot what year....one of the last ones) supposedly beefed up CR500. We would be rioght with each other til 4th....then I'd start pulling a little on him....in 5th....I pulled away from like he was standing still. And to top it all off....a friend of mine has video of it all. The video didn't do a lot of justice....but it shows me clearly winning every time.
BigKX:
I have seen 1alldave race his AF and KX at the dunes . Both are so heavily modified that the only one who can beat him on his AF would be me on his KX.
BigKX:
Oh yeah, 1all dave....Beware, Arigato is coming up on ya!!!!
1alldave:
Big KX- you might get me! Then again I might have to mill about 20# OFF OF MY GUT! That is about the only cost effective mod I have left.
