HONDA CR500 VS CRF450 | LAP TIME BATTLE

[@bazwax77]

You look visibly faster on the 4 stroke……🔥🔥 really enjoy all the content you, uncle Bill and Ed-it put out, can’t get enough guys. Looking forward to the next 2pro1slow 🙏🏻💪🏻🔥❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@garethtrethowan3137]

would love to see you on the 500 with the suspension setup and some jetting done. EPIC

[@slayer6936]

It sounded like it was running a little rich and the suspension looked to stiff for him..

[@Darylbarker]

Keep it coming boys 👏 …. More 500 shenanigans please 😊

[@mikeowen6605]

One of the best channels around, all the best from NZ Tommy. Farkin early over here 05:45 what a way to start the day.

[@TommySearle100]

Haha good man

[@andrewnewcomb3889]

Tommy Billy and Ed beach race on a 500 2 stroke that would be a great vlog👍

[@garretthorner]

Tommy “Science Man” Searle giving us the answer we all want Top vlog 🤘🔥

[@chrisbatstone9742]

Hi Tommy looking sharp champ another great vlog good luck in next British championships buddy great riding as always Mx forever vroom brapp

[@bikevault2302]

nice one Tommy - keep them coming. We love the weekly vlog

[@iainmorgan7888]

Double check the float height, bit of jetting and K-Tech on the suspension would do the trick. Sorry but 500 all day and night. Great vlog as usual 👌👍

[@slayer6936]

I still love my 2 stroke..lol but 4 strokes are nice but i am old and need a light bike and I am a die hard..grew up with 2 strokes and i can work on it!!

[@bayselec]

Great vid Tommy looked so much faster on the 450. Love the 500 be great seeing you racing at VMXdN on the new bike.. 🚀🚀

[@nickhill3868]

500 sounds so so good!!!! Miss that sound so much, and the smell!

[@Coyotethumper5]

I think if you get use to the power band on the CR you set better times. I have always heard to short shift them don’t rev out

[@angelosantaniello4113]

Cool vid!!! Man I miss the 500 smokers

[@onlygazza]

I had a kx500 back in the day and to be quite honest it vibrated so much the grips came off the bars and it was so rapid when ridden hard you couldn’t stop for the corners, I sold it and went back to 250 and rode faster !

[@Sn0w1981]

Ripping that 500! Even if it might not be the optimal way to ride a 500. You can see you ride both bikes exactly the same way. Same clutching and shifting. Nuts!

[@sAu54g3]

Where are you? Where’s the Monday video at lads? 😢

[@459MRD]

Bang on 6pm! It’s the highlight of my week 😁

[@jasonrathbone2937]

Swear to god i thought i saw you grow a mullet when you were on the 500.

[@andrewhamilton-gill]

Sweet 500, prefer the smell, but 450 for me every time. Top man Tommy…

[@imtom246]

Both brilliant to watch you ride them

[@nathankennedy7471]

Top video again guys.. very nice 500 but love to see you on a proper 80s/90s cr 500. Two smoke all day long for me 👍✊💨

[@robertwoods2505]

Well, we all could see that you would be faster on the 450. It's so much easier to go fast on.

[@jakeveitch6982]

Definately wants some fettling on that 500. You can hear its not running sweet just yet

[@jamesshaver7977]

I loved that video Awsome job guys

[@TheYzfjimbo]

I think you and Bill should do a head to head on these bikes 🤔🤔

[@aaronbadger2628]

The 450 was a little to responsive when you landed on Sunday lol 😂😂

[@dustedstar5158]

Like you say lots to learn about the 500..good show

[@andy5786]

So cool vlogs Tommy great head to head between honda 450 500 Tommy keep videos coming class👍💯❤️😊

[@ohboy2118]

It would have been interesting to have had your KTech suspension on the CR500 with a little jetting work on the motor. Maybe a big bore riding class from bossman and I think you might be equal on both. Whether you could last a full moto on the 500 is another matter! 🤣

[@travis10ist]

That would be nice to see him get used to that 500. It requires more time to get better on it

[@swbikerdad]

For someone looking to start out would you recommend a 2S or 4s obviously not either of those beasts.

[@dr.hugog.hackenbush9443]

I have a steelie CR and they definitely need suspension help in stock trim. Get your suspension dialed in and youll get faster- much faster.

[@TheBuuurnz]

I kind of want to see Bill ride a BRC 500

[@neiltanner8473]

Excellent comparison but think if the if the suspension and power could be played with and you could be given more time to get used to it, I definitely think you could even out the times on these two bikes and would be good to see it happen

[@baby-sharkgto4902]

I raced a CR500 for about 5 years straight and then I bought a brand new 2006 CRF450 and I was 7 seconds a lap faster on about a 2 minute a lap track. After years on the 500 the 450 felt like a damn moped. It was an amazing time for me. I am still very fond of the CR500……. But I know what’s up.

[@murraeblair-park4344]

When are we getting TS TV it must be only a matter of time. Tommy the content creator. We need more personal appearances and maybe commentary on the junior races for Moto x . Stars if the future with some 1 2 1 interviews. Just a thought keep it coming, GMTV in 5 years time

[@murraeblair-park4344]

Cheers, Tommy keep up the great work king of the content

[@chris-living-the-dream]

what are the vibes like through the bars and pegs tommy , i built one myself around 08 into a 204 crf250 roller and the vibes though the bars were insane , was fun for a couple of laps but no more.

[@cliff1551]

Rock on Tommy 👊👍👌👍 whatever you ride it's the taking part that counts ye 👍

[@aarongood220]

A comparison with your suspension on the 500 at a sand track would be better .

[@johnnyv673]

Hi Tommy a race or a lap between you on the 450 and your Boss DT on the 500 that would generate 1 million views.

[@cmbscx1084]

Awesome riding. Pretty simple the way i see it. You are utterly scared of the 500 and how it delivers power compared to the 450. ZERO and i mean ZERO shame in that. With your skills and a little tuning of the 500 i bet you would kill it on the lap times. Just shows a 500 of old even in a modern chassis is no joke and we all should bow down to the riders of the era for manhandling them for hours on end.

[@aaronroe4127]

Gwan tommmy lad! 500 for more likes, bring her out again with your suspension swapped over in the off season, that’s what we want to see! On the pipe, 2smoke for the poke!

[@georgewright8584]

i was surprised it was only 4 seconds faster on the 450 it looked visibly quicker i thought it was gonna be more like 10 secs

[@dennismillus4581]

Please do this again. But do timed three laps.

[@jamesstenner8335]

That 500 is awesome ,, you should buy it tommy and get the team to pimp it up

[@petergriffin4629]

I really think they should do 450 vs 450 and 250 vs 250. Two strokes are way cheaper to run. And a bored out 300 KTM could be plenty good to being privateers far in racing.

[@danieldaniel43]

Where’s the cr 250 build

[@dennismillus4581]

You are correct you are not failure with the power and torque of the 500. But, the good thing about it is you will only get faster the more you ride it. Where the 450 4puke you will only get to be so fast. You can push the CR500AF way faster.

[@ninja_wolfofficial]

It looks like you were able to throttle out of the corner earlier on the 4

[@medjoolmaker]

didn't see you shift once on either bike, looks like you were scared?

[@David-mo3tv]

Top vlog again. 👍👍

[@dennismillus4581]

Please setup and get more used to the CR500AF. Then do another lap comparison.. You will only ever be so fast on the 450 4puke. Where you will only get faster and even faster on the CR500AF.

[@claretbuck1882]

Awesome bud cheers 👍🏻

[@mickmacman]

put Nev Bradshaw on the 500 to set a lap time.

[@dylanenoch6151]

What’s the chances of you riding that at a round of the nationals Tommy?

[@petergriffin4629]

I wrote this comment a million times. People really need to understand what it means that this engine is 38 years old. Like go and look up catalogues for the major manufacturers for 1984 and compare those bikes to today and then consider the performance of the cr500 engine

[@elliemawbs]

what camera do you film with?

[@jollyjim81]

4 strokes put the power to the ground so much more efficiently than 2 strokes.

[@db1988]

500s front-end looks like a jackhammer

[@discooz4452]

The 500 😎😎😍😍😍😍😍😍. That blew me away, I thought the heavier 450 would need more physical strength to ride than the 😍😍😍😍. Then again have only ridden 250 & 450f’s since switching from road, need to pop my 2 stroke cherry 😊

[@craigdavies8099]

You will enjoy sevicing a 2T than a 4T!! I have had a 500 for 10 years no major crashes or injuries, brought a new 450 and crashed twice from the engine braking. I would back off the throttle if a drift went a bit far and the compression would lock the wheel and down I went, the 500 would just roll around and straighten up. My 500 has electric start and ohlins suspension so it's a dream to ride, love the handling of a modern bike. The 450 has more horse power due to it's high revving but the torque of the 500 will wheelie where the 450 will not.

[@Stormsniper01]

Try using the clutch on the 2stroke.. lack of experience.. poor bike challenge..

[@nicksidell4797]

You need to give the 500 a bit more time Tommy. But they are both animals in their own right to get the full potential out of them.

[@icsbay7932]

he looks like a different rider on the 450, so much more confidence

[@brodymcaleese8585]

The 500 needs a good jetting, 450 is always gonna be quicker

[@Duppavich]

Awesome 👍 probably not a real good track for the 500 also.

[@charleslynch1618]

Hey this is Charlie from Western PA USA bye I know the 450s is a big class out there but man you got to dump it and go with the 500 get your butt on there and run that mother Tucker love to see it it's a lot of meat to to ride

[@RussTnut]

Thing is, the 450 is easier to ride fast, but not everyone could ride the 500 at full chat. Some “hero’s” would get spat off it, then the beast would come back and finish them off for good measure 😂

[@wtfftw24]

The 500 wasn't properly set up. Carburation looked a bit rich and suspension not we'll set up. And, not less important, you need to ride a two strokes more than once to exploit its real potential.

[@Mxbikes_getbetter178]

Tommy I asked for ur signature on my forehead yesterday

[@shallah777]

[@dirk6001]

2 stroke rules

[@edpink3141]

Hi,I thought you rode that 500 like a seasoned pro

[@davemangamer7365]

It’s because you were scared of it. The 500 is a reason why you were more caution it and riding slower lap. That’s the only reason why the450 because you were used to it I’ve spent more time on a 500 two-stroke and I’ve rode four strokes the 500s much more powerful but unpredictable

[@ericthull]

The 500 definitely has way more power. He just needs way more time on the red rocket!

[@danondaleske3912]

On a bike without suspension work, that you never ride, you almost beat the fully setup bike you are comfortable on. In other words, with suspension, and 1 month of practice, you would Smoke the 450

[@howardwoods342]

2 strokes 4 life. Nothing wrong with 4 strokes, but man they don't put smiles on my face like two strokes.

[@bernardjeffries7735]

short shift!!

[@garyrice6795]

Would like to see you rip a 125 round would be singing 👌😎

[@DavesInHisGarage]

If that 500 was dialled in and you had alot of time behind the bars you would be a right weapon on it just like you are on the 450 but main thing is they are both red 👍👌

[@hicky]

that 500 is sweet😘but where's your ,250 tom?

[@hansbertz2079]

El problema es que el ya está más acostumbrado a las motos 4t, un piloto que acostumbré a montar más las 2t sería mucho más rápido . Se nota como el tomaba las curvas de forma mucho más técnica y más rápida The problem is that he is already more used to 4T motorcycles, a rider who used to ride the 2T more would be much faster. It shows how he took the curves in a much more technical way and more . 6:34 6:34 6:34 6:34

[@jakeeyeington92189]

Billy can teach u how to fang a 2 stroke Tommy.

[@Kalus_Saxon]

Can’t really compare when your probably holding back a bit on the 500 not feeling as comfortable as the 450 with your set up.. Get a rider who has a 500 set up for him and do a head to head.. ?

[@udubidub]

500 needs smaller sprocket its a sweet bike

[@ShiftGearsMoto]

Idk why, but it made me laugh someone started the 500 for Tommy.

[@howardwoods342]

Someone who rides 4 strokes all the time, 450 4 strokes all the time is gonna be faster on a 4 stroke then a 2 stroke, especially a big nasty big bore 2 stroke that's not setup properly for them.

[@dennismillus4581]

Set the 500 up for you. Then ride it. The more you ride it the faster you will get. The 450 you can only get to go so fast. The 500 has way more to give.

[@markcardwell]

Yeah 500 was to stiff looked like and yeah you'd be faster but do us all a favor and stay off that rocketship. BB57 likes bouncing off earth, trees and rocks- let him have it!

He was on the brakes more on the 500.

[@dennismillus4581]

You should give yourself more time as well as properly setup the Suspension for you. On the CR500AF. Your only going to get faster on the CR500AF. Face it the time you posted on the 450 4puke is probably the fastest time you can get. Ride the CR500AF and setup the Suspension properly for you. Do this again......

[@AMSRMX16]

You should try an actual CR500 rather than a CRF450 with a CR500 engine in it.

[@zachfarkash6430]

I think if you put in more time on that 500 you'd feel more comfortable and a lot faster on it. Technically that 500 has more horsepower than your 450 does it's been proven time and time again. Don't get me the 450 is an awesome bike but I would much rather have a CR500

Id rather have the 500 too but the 450 easier to hold on to if you're main purpose is fast laps.
