Definitely the fastest vintage dirtbike I've ever been on. Also great bike to ride with good suspension and decent brakes. And it always starts first kick😄 The bike is still in it's break-in period!
Beautiful Bike. My best friend and I grew up well into our 30's riding dirtbikes everyday. During the "500" years this would be us in the pits, we spent most our time making and hitting jumps.. Then one day at "The Dump", there was this older guy in his 50's riding a CR500 on the track.. Just Rippin' like he was on a 250! Wildest memory I have of that pit, absolutely fearless! It was the only time in our lives we ever watched somebody actually "Rippin'" a 500 like it was meant too!
