Greeting from Vegas my fellow CR500 riders! I recently purchased a 1993 Cr5oo. I put a pro circuit pipe and silencer on it, new air filter, front sprocket, chain and ODI grips. I have some boyesen rad valves and a cheng shin paddle coming also. I also bought a complete black acerbis plactic set with a seat from a guy off e-bay. Anyway here are some pics! I look forward to getting and giving some good tech from the forum!

Hi there and welcome!

what you'll going to do with the nuclear red OEM plastics after you have the new ones?

I'll probably sell them. I should have the black ones by Friday. I should also have my rad valve this week. I'm gonna bring it along to dumont for the 4 stroke wars this coming weekend. I'll probably ride my quad more though.

when I was living in hungary they were surprised by my name, since a lot of then still have names they trace back to their distant grandfathers job. they nicknamed me "siraso" which means "Male Prostitute"

DUDE! that thing looks SWEET!
If you are going to hang out and ride with Danny, watch out.
Danny and his buddies like to blow shit up every now and then.
Could get kinda DANGEROUS!

very
only a couple months until dumont season starts... although most years I start going again in late august. 2 years ago only a few of us went out right after some crazy rain, the river was flooded, it was like 80* and the sand was perfect and tacky and a little wed just under tyhe surface. possibly my best day riding ever! hope I can do it again this year.

I think it was a little warmer than 80* but the swim sure helped cool things off.

when the temps cool down, just bring 2 bikes and a 6 pack (I don';t drink much) and we'll bang out the mock up and tacking in a day, then I'll send you off to my welder here in hendo, then we can spend another day putting the motor in and plumbing everything up
just keep an eye out for a gen-3 250 definitly the best chassis to convert
