MX500 back in the saddle again after a four year hiatus.

A quick "How ya'Do", and a photo would be nice.

MX500 back in the saddle again after a four year hiatus.

Post by MX500 »

Hey guys, I doubt most of you remember me, My name is Daniel. I was on the old CR500riders website around the time it went to shit then I sold my bike in 2007. I just yesterday bought an all original 1987 CR500 for $800. It runs well but should be rejetted for optimum power. It's a good start though. I'm glad to be back on a CR500!


I'm either going to restore the bike for a clean backup bike, or swap the engine into a street bike chassis or of course make an AF. Now that I finally have a good job I can afford a badass project bike. :D

I've got work through Saturday and won't have time to register the bike for a couple weeks due to my work schedule. I just picked up a 130/80-18 M5B today.
