This week concludes 5 month meticulous restoration of the Honda CR500r 1987.
So another worthwhile project hits the screen. No less the beast, a 'Man bike', Cancelled in the name of safety, What ever you want to call it. This is the last un-restricted crazy idea from Honda to produce a bike you simply can't use to it's full potential. Dull 4 stroke restricted racing still sees the CR500 2 stroke competing and winning in many unrestricted races after 30+ years of so-called- development. I want one. I want it in a glass case just to know I have something that belongs to another age.
Lets see if it is up to the hype..

We were already getting worried... Almost 3 weeks without news! :)
That turned out magnificent!
You have a talent! Keep doing the hard work. I’ve been subscribed for a while now. Nice to see your subscribers increasing
That is very kind. I’ll try not to disappoint! Thank you
Stunning bike best years to own are 85 to 90 in my opinion ❤
Nice ! Been a joy watching this thing come together!
If you haven’t checked out this guys channel do. It’s very good. Entertaining and good content 👍
Raced one in 89,these bikes are beasts! They just want to pull your arms off!
😂
Outstanding a real credit to your hard work
Thank you 🙏
Just subscribed found your channel today and just watched all cr500 videos in one go fantastic going to watch your other restorations too
Great effort on the CR500. I once had a similar CR250 and the idle speed was adjustable by rotating the choke pull knob. it is an enrichment adjustment and can speed up the idle. Hope your carb is similar.
Very impressive! Well done mate!
Wow nice 👍🏻
looks spot on
Great journey to completion 👍🏼nicely placed decals too. Would be nice to see the process of finishing the plastics off a little more which is a tricky thing to get right but Loving your work M8
Thank you. Yes when the dust settles I’ll look for more tutorial type content 👍
Beautiful work!
Well Done!
Congratulations mate , she looks beautiful, please next time you ride it wear a helmet, we need you to be safe for more restorations like this!!!!
That CR looks amazing. What a good job. Lekker
Thanks 👍
What a great job all round, those plastic parts are not easy to restore. A great bike the Honda 500 is.
Looks amazing. A true labor of love. I hope someone actually rides it in the dirt, though that probably seems painful at this point.
Yes it has to be run down a lane pinned…then into the house!
You knocked it out of the park!! Amazing work!!
Just come across your channel

Another great restoration Rob. Congratulations on bringing another old bike back to life👍🏻.
Thank you David
@@MyRestoration1you need help with the jetting? I’m very knowledgeable with these cr500’s. Looks like a PJ carb on there
@@blanchard899great! Yes it’s a PJ27 B
I’ve got a 1.70 main
1370 needle
and a 58 idle
Running a proRace pipe.
This was one the bike when I got it.
Fuel is E10 (95 octane)
In the video I started a 1.5 turns but it’s surging and hard to get it to idle.
I haven’t run the bike since the video.
Cheers 👍
@@MyRestoration1 what elevation and weather temp you ride in?
@@blanchard899 around 120/30m above sea level (390ft ish). The weather is (0-12 degc) 53f at the moment in England.
Excellent work with a great end result.
I enjoyed following your progress.
Thank you very much!
Oh my! NOW I know what I want for Christmas.!
What an unreal restoration. I am super impressed.
Highlights are the plastic restoration and putting together all the correct pieces in the right shades of red/orange.
And that seat - the colour and the vinyl work is just wonderful.
Congrats on a wonderfully well done project. It's been a dream to follow.
Can't wait for the next video - go crazy! :D
Very nice comments. I really try to deliver the best I can. This one came out better than I thought!
that'll get the blood circulating ! it looks...and sounds.. amazing , you nailed that seat and all the details :)
Lovely sound
Just wow!
Thank you 🙏
Marvellous restoration and what a sound !!! 🎉
Absolutely amazing work! You should be really proud 👍
Bike looks great.
How’s you 87 coming?
Ran into a hi-cup on one of my last builds. had a slight cold seize right before the guy came to buy it. Turns out i had a failure of a brand new transmission side crank seal. Fixing that right now so that i can get the money to start moving on the 500. Getting a new cylinder for it this weekend as the original one is at its last bore. Looked everywhere for a sleeve and no luck. @@MyRestoration1
I sold my cr500 1989 for £750 back in 1997 thank god i’ve owned and raced one of these beautiful machines because these days just turn into a money pit alone with massive profits, human greed 😠🤷♂️
Outstanding restoration. Bravo!
You must be over the moon fantastic build
I am for sure!
Amazing Job, again! I cannot believe how you get these results from where you started.
Magnifique!
good luck bro
Outstanding 💪💪🎉🎉😁😁
Woohoo!!
amezing😍😍😍😍
Just casually restoring a CR500 with my Rolex Sub on 😂
Must be one of the best in the country!!
If it’s not I’d like to see the best. Thank you!
Fantastic job you did there 👍 The look on your face riding it in the intro clip said it all 😁 These motocross bikes sound scary and must take a lot of nerve to ride at full potential. Looking forward to seeing you ride it proper after some tweaks.... but hope you don't get it too dirty🙃
superb brow
Thanks ✌️
bike life 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Outstanding build, the bike looks and sounds amazing. Congratulations, you should be rightfully proud of your achievements.
If you are looking for a willing pilot to test ride the beast on the dirt, I have 36yrs experience of racing these machines (I race a 1996 model currently) I would be happy to take one for the team and stretch the cable for you !!!!!
Hi Paul. Good timing. I’m looking for such a person. We’re are you based though..I’m in Surrey
I am in South Devon but would be willing to travel the length of the country to ride such a beautiful machine. @@MyRestoration1
❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Looks good, just needs fine tuning.
wooow
Brilliant job of doing the bike I am currently taking on a job to restore one for a friend would it be possible for you to to all the oem stickers for the bike and ship them to me thanks Tom
Pm me Thomas. I’ll have to look for them..
I was wondering where you’d gone 😂
Work was ramping up so a bit over stretched..
Well Done I never new you could get the CR for the seat or the honda
How do I do this did you get it made please Regards Craig
Hi Craig. This seat is the 3rd attempt to get the correct one. I made it myself and as you can see I sprayed it with decals I made at my work. If you want to do this right you have to do it yourself. Story of our time..the previous video goes into some detail on this job..and no I don’t make them to sell 😂
Hi Paul. My contact details are in my channel if you want to contact me thanks
