Addressing the survival of the legendary CR500!

Cool. I have 4 days at the track on mine and I'm loving it. I did have to put a new clutch in, but other than that, a fantastic bike. Mines an '05 (very, very little difference from the '08 ), and its pretty modded, Eric Gorr 265cc kit, port and polish, PC pipe w/shorty, V-force, Enzo revalve/respring both ends, and subtanks, and so on. Anyway, its great. When I saw it for sale I had to have it, so much so, that I sold my AF to Ported and Polished. Not regreting it YET, but I am riding with Terence this weekend, lol.MojoScojo wrote:I took it out for its maiden voyage yesterday. Basically just a putt around the riding area parking lot and up a couple of the dirt roads. The people at the dealership put in about a half a tank of gas mixed at 15:1 for break in...
I fouled a plug. I could feel it loading up, but didn't dare to blow it out.
At any rate, this machine lacks NOTHING, except maybe a comfy seat.
I don't have enough seat time and never exceeded half throttle, but I am optimistic that this unit will be ideal for me. Just need to change the gearing. Stock is too tall for the woods.
I'm getting anxious to get out for a real ride.
