I dont think I'd spend that much on a mini...if it had a 500 motor in...maybe... ;)
The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

For the price of that I could buy every bike my kids need until they reach the big keeper stuff. Bikes are like shoes for kids 8-16!

And I do not understand the whole adult mini craze :roll:

for me mini riding helped alot my big bike riding mostly in body position, cordination and just plain fun factor, But I also rode on a mini "national track" and had a mini supercross track to practice on so maybe that is why. It is hard to match the fun of banging bars with your friends for an hour and relizing it only cost you a half gallon of gas(two bucks), they were z 50's

Don't you remember I had one mini left a klx 110 and was selling it here but, I built at least 20 of those mini's. I sold one with the sproket bolts that didn't match for $6500 some of those mini's I built were way more trick than my conversions! :wink:
