FS: CR500 Steelie
Posted: March 8th, 2011, 12:47 pm
Might be a long shot but with no job and too many bikes I am going to list this bike for sale.
Its a 1994 that I restored a couple years ago with the intentions of keeping it forever. I used all factory Honda parts, including the plastic, tank and seat for the restoration. Additionally, it has some aftermarket add ons like Race Tech gold valve revalved and sprung suspension, VForce reed block, Gorr cylinder, Excel rims laced with oversize spokes to refinished stock hubs, 1 new center case, new crank, all new bearings THROUGHOUT the bike, FMF Gnarly pipe and both a FMF powercore silencer and turbine core spark arrestor. Again all the parts were bought new by me (except the FMF SA and Vforce) and have ~4 hours on them MAX! All parts are Honda OEM parts. All of them except where noted.
Now the bad. The bike is located in GA. Not normally known to be CR500 country.
Here are some pics of the bike when I got it, the restoration and the finished product.
I dont want to sell it but I am currently selling all my stuff (except my AF) so I can focus on raising my new son since that is all I have time for any more. Make no mistake the motivation for this sale (along with all the other stuff I am selling) is to raise money to put back in the bank since its not getting used as I thought. I am not in debt as my stuff is paid for so I will not be interested in hearing from you if your name is "Baller, Low".
Reasonable offers however and positive feedback are both welcomed and encouraged.

After 1 of the 2 rides I have taken it on:
Current:
This bike was a bike I purchased off ebay in 2008 from CA. It has a CA title still from the previous owner (we dont title them here in GA) and I made sure to preserve the VIN during the powdercoating process so it could be titled again if needed.
This is basically a "new" 1994 CR500. So I know the market for that is small but for the right person I hope it will be a bike for them.
$3800
