If you can ride a CR500 like that, you are the man!!! Unless you’ve been on one, People will NEVER know the effort it takes to ride that beast, let alone, like this!! I need a nap after this race just watching!!!
I love the video. I was fortunate enough to snap a old training bike..'93 HRC CR500R factory works bike. INCREDIBLE!!! This guy knows how to handle this beast! The connection between his wrist and brain are outstanding. Brings back great memories racing in Gainesville. Thanks for the video.
I sold my 2000 CR500 in 2008 for a CRF450, I wished I never sold the 5huny, raced it for years in the desert/motocross. Miss those years, this felt like I was back on it again. Thanks.
There's no comparison between a CR and a CRF. I had a 1985 atc250r when a friend of mine bought a trx450 in 2005. It pissed him off to no end that my twenty-year-old stock ride could outperform him on any surface start to finish. I thought it was hilarious!
Man that brings back fun memories from back in the day . we had a pretty good course set up in the 5 acres we lived on and I had a 1979 yz 250 , my neighbor had a new 1985 yz125 , I bought my little bro an exceptionally strong running 1982 yz 80 , my older bro had a 1977 rm 250 , and another guy up the street had a 79 yz 400 . we had a wide ditch that ended up creating a really high flying jump that would catapult us way high in the air if you hit it in 3rd gear on the throttle . The first time I flew , I was freaking out and then it became addictive . nobody else would hit that jump like I would , I wanted as much air as I could get . we used to line up and race for 10 laps , none of us were experienced racers , just doing it for fun . I loved watching you take your time and then just letting em hang and showing them how it's done , makes me miss my bike !
I was told that the best 500 riders would sound like they were going on a Sunday cruise around the track, riding smooth and using all the low end torque. You can tell that this guy didnt just hop off of a 450 onto this bike, he is good.
HELL YEA!!! NOTHING can beat the CR500. Just hearing one next to you on the track is intimidating. These things will take it out of you - like holding onto a pissed-off bull for 10 minutes, and you did it well!! Nice job brother!!!
Awesome ride, one of the best CR500 videos here on TH-cam because you went balls to the wall & didn't pussy foot it around the track. I've got a 91 & a 94 CR500 & both run like beasts.
I like the dirt on your track. Even though it appears dry and there is a lot of roost with pebbles and bits of wood (knarly), I notice not a lot of dust hangs in th air and traction is pretty good. And you my friend, FLY on that track ! Good stuff 👍
Great Ride, that Honda with its weight and horsepower is not an easy bike to ride WFO but even harder when you wanna take the inside line in corners. Good job!
Them bikes are savage....I rode an old I.T 490 air cooled when I was about 15 -16 ....I'm 5ft 7 and was 10 and a half some at the time ....It was super quick ....scared me but I put it through its paces and wasn't being a bitch on it ....really hard to keep the front end down ...the big bore moto x bikes are riden completely different to what I had experienced before ....after 1hr on it I felt drained lol....very physically demanding
You let those guys rooster your face off with those bikes? Took you long enough to pass them. What's the world coming to? Dude, for gods sake you are on 500 those guys looked like they were riding smaller bikes. Just kidding with you, great ride and beautiful sound on that beast. I have the 87 long live these great machines.
Tony Yayo On a fairy small track DEFINITELY. the bigger tracks the 500 would probably beat it just because there’s more room to use the power. Has a lot to do with the rider to.
Nice ride man ! That's cool Sandbox started running some practice races. That track isn't always in tip top shape either as far as the grooming goes but still a fun place to ride you're dirtbike. Good vid
Love them 2 strokes we use to have a 84 YZ250 yellow black plastic not metal gold wheels we had the last year YZ490 to I am probably little older then u guy's I believe 85 is was when they switched to red and white that yz 490 was a monster love those 2 strokes ride hard ! I wish I could still do it
A CR500 is a uniquely different animal that has it’s own unique character compared to any other bike I have ever owned! Just when you think you have mastered it, it will sit you on your arse just as quick to show you who is boss! You will never tame it or fully control it as it will always be the ‘boss’ of you! Just starting the beast takes balls and determination and once you start it, people come from all around, drawn by the unique sound of the ‘King of Ping!’ No wonder they keep going up in value as they will never build a bike like this again!
Use to ride a '95 CR500 that track is better for 80cc to 250's , would've been nice to see you on a track more suitable for a CR500 powerband WFO eating up terrain 🤘
I have a 03 CR 250 to ride occasionally to relive my youth. Got to respect fast bikes. I can remember when they let the open bikes go first on a staggered start. 500's put a lot of roost up trying to pass. A motos were 20 minutes
trying to kick-start it like its a 125. No starting gate= I'll get the hole-shot every time! we'll see ya! Hard to watch this guy eat all that roost! 10:46 best corner so far! Motocross on a cr500 is the most intense racing you can do on 2 wheels!
I HAD CR 500 VERY FAST BIKE. I DID A WHEELY . AND MOTOR HIT A ROCK WHEN FRONT TIRE CAME DOWN. AND PUT A HOLE IN MOTOR . DID NOT KNOW IT AND THAT TOOK CARE OF THAT BIKE. AWSOME BIKE TO OLD TO RIDE THEM NOW. BUT DAME I MISS IT,
Pinning the cr 500, eating roost the whole race, from a kx250 no less. I know for sure by the sound its a 500 and its tuned well, but damn takes a real man to go real fast. Nice bike pal.
Hard as hell to start rides like a beast scare the hell out of the most experienced rider too big fir the track really shines in the desert high speed crazy sht,
That sound when you crank it coming out of a turn or ripping down that one straightaway . AWESOME !!
If you can ride a CR500 like that, you are the man!!! Unless you’ve been on one, People will NEVER know the effort it takes to ride that beast, let alone, like this!! I need a nap after this race just watching!!!
You should thank that guy at 3:59 for helping you clean off your camera lens.
Hes like "oh shit... sorry I'll clean them off again for you."
lol
You need a rear-cam to show how fun it is to be behind a 500.
I can just tell you.
Not fun.
@@elcucuygarage ; P
Yes do it
Takes some balls to ride a 500 in the power band let alone for the whole race. Nice work.
Yeah even my Cr85 throws me on my ass
Forza_ Drifter 85s are known to hit band hard
Nah they're not .they're kinda like riding a crf450 but only with VIOLENT POWER INSTEAD LOL
Robert Smith lmao
That's no 500!! Ridding like a 125.
Impressive, being able to turn on and leave on a CR500 for that amount of time takes skill. Great job!

I love how the camera got sandblasted clean in the sand pit! Very impressive riding, great video, thanks for sharing!

I mean a KX500 beats it, more horsepower and a power valve. As well as less crude and more refined thick inverted forks.
@@greecherthecreature Not true lol, CR500 is the most powerful dirtbike ever made
First vid i've seen of a CR500 being properly thrown around, nice job dude
Awesome ride, one of the best CR500 videos here on TH-cam because you went balls to the wall & didn't pussy foot it around the track. I've got a 91 & a 94 CR500 & both run like beasts.
Let them 125 boys eat a couple chests full of that roost,take the edge off em pretty quick
I had a sezuire reading this
Jacob H 73 Makes me wanna fly the dixie flag 💀
Lol I remember getting beat up by Cr500’s when I was on the track on my Rm 125 back in the 90’s Damn I miss those days.
Those were like 65 and 80
This made me grin so hard
Damn man, you were rippin on that big 2 stroke!!! Impressive!!!
You rode that MONSTER LIKE A BOSS!!!! 💯✔😎🏁🏁 WELL DONE..
Not bad not bad..i love how you opened it up after taking the lead. Every good rider learns to be patient an safe before leaving everyone in the dust.
I like the dirt on your track. Even though it appears dry and there is a lot of roost with pebbles and bits of wood (knarly), I notice not a lot of dust hangs in th air and traction is pretty good. And you my friend, FLY on that track ! Good stuff 👍
Great Ride, that Honda with its weight and horsepower is not an easy bike to ride WFO but even harder when you wanna take the inside line in corners. Good job!
A lot of strength to wring one of those out for even a short moto. Well done!
Great riding dude I have a cr500 and it takes a good rider too stay on that long
Seeing that old wooden fencing I remember crashing through some of that when the throttle on a rm500 stuck open😃
Nice ride ! Man I miss my old 83 480 n 87 CR5OO
Them bikes are savage....I rode an old I.T 490 air cooled when I was about 15 -16 ....I'm 5ft 7 and was 10 and a half some at the time ....It was super quick ....scared me but I put it through its paces and wasn't being a bitch on it ....really hard to keep the front end down ...the big bore moto x bikes are riden completely different to what I had experienced before ....after 1hr on it I felt drained lol....very physically demanding
Had an '84 YZ490 in 86. Brutal power. I only weighed 165 lbs. Miss it, bad !
Nice riding, it takes a lot of strength and stamina to ride a 500cc hard and you made it look easy.
Best I've ever seen tracking a 500 AWESOME rider I had a 91 model I know how fast they ARE GREAT ride MY guy
A real beast!!! I saw a modified Honda CRF 450 with a Brc 2-stroke engine, an incredible thing👏👏👏
Good Job, those old beasts can be the spawn of the devil
Totally picked up the pace once you made the pass.
riding starts at 3:27
Wow I sure did love my 94 CR 250 so I can’t imagine how sweet the 500 would have been to ride
Riders in the 50 miles radius feeling the pain of the vibration in his hands

Better a roost to the face then a spooge to the face!!
GDV thinkin the same i figured a CR500 would SMOKE the others. They look like 250’s. Must be a beginners rider. That’s cool, gotta start somewhere.
@@tec61 A KTM 250 should turn faster lap times than that 500, no? Bcs/ the power is still plenty there, even for pros, and lighter and handling >
Tony Yayo On a fairy small track DEFINITELY. the bigger tracks the 500 would probably beat it just because there’s more room to use the power. Has a lot to do with the rider to.
@@tec61 spoken like someone that never left novice class. 🤦🏼♀️
Must have been playing possum for those first few laps, or just got sick of the steady roosting lol. Amazing video
Nice ride man ! That's cool Sandbox started running some practice races. That track isn't always in tip top shape either as far as the grooming goes but still a fun place to ride you're dirtbike. Good vid
you were just toying with those two out in front!
Either that sand is quite loose or that clutch is slipping! Hes moving no doubt but that's not normal 500 power!
Look at the bikes in front of him. The sand is loose as hell.
you don't ride kid!
You have no idea what you are talking about. I suggest you get a 500 and ride a track like this. You are expecting it to sound like a 125.
Love them 2 strokes we use to have a 84 YZ250 yellow black plastic not metal gold wheels we had the last year YZ490 to I am probably little older then u guy's I believe 85 is was when they switched to red and white that yz 490 was a monster love those 2 strokes ride hard !

Holy hell bro you really let the legs loose once you left those other bikes 3 area codes behind!!!!
Nice riding. You can really tell when you turned it on and put them behind you. Exceptional skills.
That was some sick riding 👍.
Old papa honda still leaving the new dirties in a dirt cloud.
Amazing stuff.
Use to ride a '95 CR500 that track is better for 80cc to 250's , would've been nice to see you on a track more suitable for a CR500 powerband WFO eating up terrain 🤘
Dude ridin' that scooter like he stole it - awesome job!
Great video! Riding that thing hard- track looks so much fun
Got arm pump just watching this guy. Awesome vid
Simple simple lovely. Bet the arm pump was unreal lol
My arms hurt watching this!
You know you are on a 500 when you clear the jump on over run 🤘🏼😂😂🔥. Hats off the rider has been behind them bars before
Cudos... that's why I commented. If you come up short on a 500, yiu better check the connection between your wrist and brain (or balls)!
That's gotta be the coolest water truck at a track I've seen lmao
Robbie Knievel used a CR500 as one of his main jumping bikes! Just donated a signed one to the Ken Kaplan motorcycle museum.
. Looked close at the start but Unleashing the BEAST is not for the faint Hearted. Well done.
I love the 90's!
I miss the 90s :(
Best cr500 vid Ive seen and the rider knows how to ride the brama bull...
Big Balls. They are beasts... you're just along for the ride
it must bring a smile to your face ripping it like that infront of your family and having them say good job
Fuck! My old ass misses flying a CR500. Thank you for this
Best work I’ve seen on a 60 plus hp water pumper 500 2T
Image how fast he could be if the weight of his balls 🏀 🏀 weren’t slowing him down! Great job!!!

You were PULLIN IT AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
Yo man I just got arm pump listening to that beast idle!

Legend has it he has a tattoo of an anchor on his forearm..beast
These big bore 500 arent easy to ride hard. Vibration, arm pump from holding on an tiring. Awesome ride
This man definitely knows how to ride!!
If you had the 85 model year in good running condition, you would have blown all of them away from the beginning. It's much faster than the 94.
Very nice🏁2T5oocc. I wonder about the roooost 💨💥💨💥💨💥 albiet the little bikes were fast and ferocious...
Putting in work bro! Badass
Kicked ass 👌love the sound of the Cr 500 👌
Really nice dude!!!!
all respect for driving 500 2stroke like that good joob
Takes an incredible amount of strength and stamina to moto a 500 even on that B CLASS track .....lol how many more laps did you have in ya?
Did u ever get out of 3rd? I remember racing one and I thought if die when I got to 4th
This is my dreambike ❤
Pinning the cr 500, eating roost the whole race, from a kx250 no less. I know for sure by the sound its a 500 and its tuned well, but damn takes a real man to go real fast. Nice bike pal.
I felt that one .. good ride!
There was no way he was taken any more roost .good ride
Well done, you tamed the beast.
Hey man I love your videos and would like to ride with you
Riding Red gets more head !
Bill Clinton
😂 😂
@@spreaddeezhazelnutz7511didn't know Lewinsky had red hair
Hey have you ever hear of the pro design super cooler for this beast if so does it work good
Nice ride man..what have u done to your suspension?
Lovin the 2001/2002 Husky #726. Got a ferrracci CR250 myself, awesome bikes. Do you know that dude?
Sob u ripped that corner at 6:30👍
2:20 the wild 2 strokes perform a mating call
If you close your eyes it sounds like someone strapped a GoPro to an angry bee
How is there almost more comments than subs anyone who is still watching this sub because he definitely deserves it
The Yamaha to your right looks like an NCY bike.
Had your big balls on that day..Nice riding.
Good afternoon, good evening and good night
Im currently in the process of putting a cr500 in my trophy kart
Damn, how long is this gonna take?!
Is s cr500 a good first bike?
Great ride great sounds
Hard as hell to start rides like a beast scare the hell out of the most experienced rider too big fir the track really shines in the desert high speed crazy sht,
Great ride you wrung it out
