Not fussed on the MotoX paint and red chain etc,but that just has to be a wild ride. Probably one I'd be happy to hand back while I'm still in one piece!

Re: HONDA CR500 BY BOYKO RACING
I rode a CR500 SM when I had my KTM525, massive disappointment on tarmac tbh. It's reputation as a fearsome beast prob comes from the MX world but on tarmac and in SM format it was rubbish and slower than a 525 KTM 4 stroke single

I had a go on dirt on a 1987 CR500, it wasn't at all scary, it was a bit of a torque monster

That looks like a sensible version of the Husky. Might be fun for short rides.

Re: HONDA CR500 BY BOYKO RACING
Mudguards? [X]
Airbox? [X]
89mm diameter piston? [X]
Lobsterback bend spannie? [X]
Fat tyres? [X]
Big brakes? [X]
Aye, go on then.
Getting 80 or so horsepower out of one is interesting mind, standard they have about the same as KX500s at 55 or so rear wheel. About 100 kilos weight mind.
I'd be interested to see where all the extra power came from cos even with a 520 kit it seems a tad optimistic?
