Nice and Beautiful 2 stroke Vintage Motocross Dirtbike with lots of power. Where do you live, brother?

One sexy and badass monster of a bike right there! Will blow the doors off of a new 4 stroke MX Dirtbike if it's healthy and running correctly. Sounds very healthy and running well to me. These CR 500's run the best with PK Air Stryker Carbeurators on them.

I'm 51 years old, having grown up with all of these two strokes. Makes me very happy to see young people like yourself riding them, loving them, and making sure the 2 stroke riding revolution continues on. Somebody has to carry the torch. I won't buy any MX Dirtbike, unless it's a 2 stroke. I hate the heavy and way overpriced 4 strokes that so many kids like and ride these days. So so many advantages to owning a 2 stroke dirtbike, over owning a 4 stroke dirtbike. I started riding 2 strokes at the age of 5 in 1978. They're the only dirtbikes I will ride. The last 2 stroke MX Dirtbike that I bought is a 2022 GasGas MC 250, that I'm about to put many nice custom parts on. 4 stroke mx dirtbikes give their riders a very tame and boring ride. It takes alot more skill as a motorcycle rider to handle a 2 stroke. The biggest and most enjoyable healthy high, is cracking the throttle of a 2 stroke and waiting for that powerband to come on the pipe. That's when a rider better be able to handle alot more aggressive power, because if they are unfamiliar with how 2 strokes ride, they will find themselves flipped over very quickly, possibly breaking their back or neck. Keep representing little brother. You have a Real Man's Bike in that CR 500. That's a monstrous 2 stroke that takes alot of spine, courage, and balls to ride. Most people are deathly afraid of them. There's a damn good reason why most CR 500's have dented rear fenders from their former owners flipping them over. In my time, it was common to see many 2 stroke 500's racing in motocross races on TV. You really missed out having not been alive back then. Take Care Little Brother..Much love and respect to you from Sonny in Louisiana. You have yourself a new subscriber to this channel. PS. Since you like big bore 2 stroke mx dirtbikes so much, you might want to check out the Kaplan America You Tube Channel. They are friends of mine that own the New England Motorcycle Museum in Rockville, Connecticut. I bought my GasGas from them brand new. They also restore many vintage 2 stroke motocross dirtbikes to looking brand new, but much nicer than what they looked back in the day, when they were originally bought off the showroom floor. Ken Kaplan Sr and Ken Kaplan Jr on that channel are expert level motocross racers both riding CR 500's with that being the MX dirtbike of their choice and their favorite motocross bike of all time. They also have many fast streetbikes on their channel that they both restore and sell, as well as having many vintage mx dirtbikes and fast streetbikes in their motorcycle museum. Hope you enjoy that You Tube Channel if you don't already know about it. It's the best motorcycle channel on You Tube that is always coming out with new videos, most every day. ****KAPLAN AMERICA YOU TUBE CHANNEL****

I had a yz125,rode a friend's cr500+i was hooked. Sold the 125 paid cash for cr500. More brutally acceleration ive every experience!! Another friend just bought a new 1986 GSX-R 1100+was singing its praises about how quick it is so i jumped on+yes it was fast but nothing close to the power of the cr500!! I still have my cr500 to this day!!

Superb bike!

What year was this vdieo made?

How many rear wheel horsepower?

The fastest CR that Honda ever made, officially det-uned after this year. Pros were on record talking about how the '85 was just a little bit too much.

Che bei ricordi la musica del 500 3 tempi a anche i 250 i125 e cosi bia oltre che a duono la coppia che svevano veloce e rabbiosa tutto dubito io svevo una huswharna 500 sncora rsffreddata ad aria con 4 marce non sapevo mai in che marcia mi trovavo dempre pronnta a tirarti fuori

I had a 81 465. And I can tell you that bike is sooo much faster than he shows it to be. Get someone on that bike who is not afraid to really crack back that throttle and then you will be very impressed at what that bike can do. Even by today’s standards. Every time I raced it, I had to start from second gear first gear was not an option. Power!!

Had a 85 yz 490 when I was a kid. Love those big 2 strokes. Sweet Cr man💪🇺🇲

Sounds perfect!

Quando e 500 2 tempi non ce stiria che sia honda che yamaha che sia kawasaki che sia suzuki che sia ktm e sempre pra adrenalina rooook

The true widowmaker

1:10 respect to cameraman who risked his life to go front of cr500 passing by

that machine is ablosute beast

My friend MARK Farrell (unfortunately died in a Skydiving accident a couple of years ago) had a Little KX 80 converted into a 100cc (two-stroke air cooled) Way back in the 80's...I was still at school but a proud rider on my Yammie MR 5O. That KX was a BEAST!!! If you lanched that little green 2-stroke KX in first gear and that powerband kicks in... 🚑 😁. We used to just respectfully take off in 2nd gear... 2-stroke bikes RULE!!!👍👍👍❤️🇿🇦

Ive ridden one of these and they are nothing but raw power...scary fuckin power! Mine was a left foot kickstart that could break your fuckin ankle

Was the 85 the one they called the red rocket?

Brilliant vid, thank you.

loved my new '83 CR250 !

I had a Husqvarna 430 open class bike bought it for $1200 off the original owner sat in his barn covered up for year's.. that f**king bike was scary fast never rode anything faster

Scariest bike i ever rode.

Adrenaline russh! Gods blessed 2 strokes

Here's to living the good life

Cr 500 wheelies in all gears. Scary bike.

85-86

Is that white bike in the background a Bultaco or Maico?

Never rode the CR500 but I have a KX 500 and it was a beast of a bike to hang on too. Be nice if Honda still made the XR400

rider seems to change clothes at 054 in

ROCKET

The C R 250 was to much for most!!! Netalone the CR 500 that was insanely crazy!! Like the Suzuki Quadzilla that also was 500 CC!!

Nothing but raw

KTM 495 was mine. That sound. Goosebumps all over.

😂 thx man what a blast from the past ... 👍

Cool video n beautiful 500!

All u hear nowadays is 4 strokes riding around sounding slow af ain’t nuthin like a 2 stroke when hear it u kno it has power

My first 500 was an 84 CR, the last air-cooled model. I got a smokin deal on it because the dealer just got the 85 water-cooled 500’s. When I took it to the MX track and the sand dunes, I beat every 85 CR every time in a drag race! And I was the only one to climb over a particularly tall sand dune. Plus the light weight of not having all that wet weight up high on the air cooler made this thing agile! I’ve owned a half dozen 500’s since, but the 84 was my favorite of all time!

I hope that smelt as good as it sounded 😀

You see that's why I always end up in the ER. I have a really hard time not twisting that right hand until the end. 👌

I like how much louder bikes were in the old days I got a 79 Y z two fifty You could hear me a mile away

This guy has seat time.

Two stroke engine. You should be seeing a little smoke coming out of the exhaust pipe when revving it, which I didn't see. It means the engine is running too lean on fuel. The very crisp sound confirms this. Should be running a little richer on fuel to extend engine life.
