Cr500 makes 56hp low stock to 63hp with some cheap mods.These bikes are used for hillclimbing for a reason with 70+hp highly modded. If someone wants to run mine on a dyno I think you will see a solid 60hp. The bike the cr500 replaced was a KTM dxc 550cc 2 stroke 1992. compare to this graph: ![]() 12 grand and a 45 minute drive gets you best bike you can buy, without question. http://www.servicehonda.com/honda-2010-models/500af Not only a cr500 will out perform new 4 strokes but also a "lesser" KTM 380 will make new 450s look slow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bh9kMQ1ytM dougfromindy screwed with this post 01-22-2013 at 04:18 PM |

I'm sorry Doug, I couldn't hear you over the KX85 passing that cute cr500.

great dad
putting that kid on a 2 stroke that sounds great.
Let that kid ride the 500 in the woods with throttle pinned, that would be way cool. Everyone will soon ride high-tech 2 strokes and then you can say "I guess crazy old Doug was right afterall." And we have not even discussed the simplicity, reliability, ease of maintenance, and lower cost of a 2T. |

I am kinda glad the seller of a TE510 sold it out from under me as I was there to pick it up. I can wait for the new 2 stroke DS that will return us fans to ultimate GLORY! ![]() ![]()

the 85'CR500 was really unrideable until it was de-tuned.
