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

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..... :?
