Steel frame 500 best offer

Post by lewisclan »

I will be selling a friend of ours CR5 looking for a best offer, Ill throw up some photos and details tonight, Its Bruce`s bike some of you guys know my Buddy Bruce anyway he wants to dump the 5 for the best offer. I think it has a fatty pipe & PMB kick stand and it has a fresh piston & rings frame is a 95 and not sure but the motor is 97 or newer.
dose not seem like a lot of compression for a fresh pistion Ill ask how long ago was the pistion installed

I think 1350 is a fair price , it also has a scotts dampener on it, the frame is kinda bent at the bottom and it comes with a extra rear wheel & paddle I think the tires are in real good shape maybe 1-2 rides on them but the bike has been sitting for a few years.
Local pick up would be best for me. so local guys get 1st go

Contact Al Gava, he is always looking for a good deal on 2Ts, and $1350 is a great deal, engine alone is worth that!

make sure you change the graphics and gas cap before putting a 500 in that
the 450 will have less power and will be harder to start, and will be heavier, but to make up for it it will require more maintenance.

LOCAL PICK UP ONLY $1350 you come get it.

I do not have the time to tear it down & ship it or the time to drive it anywhere, something like that I couldent even think about until mid August
sorry guys I just dont have the time .

I am leaving in a few days and wont be back until 7-9-12 and I really dont care if the bike sells before I go or after what I do care about is me not having to dick with it

:lol: :lol: :lol: I once sent a heckling e-mail to a somewhat local guy who was selling a "gay" CR500 with pink tires, the dude had a shit fit and flew off the handle (via e-mail, mind you). What a dick! I thought ALL CR 500 owners had a SPINE and could take a little ribbing now and then..... :?
