Anyone here have one? I'm looking very closely at one that is like new. Wondering what I should look for, what they are known for etc.
No longer have a CR500.

I have one. Pretty much a bulletproof, air cooled machine. TONS of engine aftermarket support.

Test rode it. Like riding a fine swiss watch. Low speed was kind of precarious, it took a lot of effort and arm strength to hold my balance.
Test rode a FZ1, instantly felt at home. Looking at FZ1's now.
