- Got it from my uncle as just a frame and the bottom end. New cylinder, piston, head, etc. Painted. Rear shock getting rebuilt, because it's apparently missing a rebound and quite messed up, hence the crate. A hose between the radiators wasn't hooked up (I pointed it out but he insisted it was fine) so it spewed coolant everywhere. Worked fine once we hooked that up.
I had one of these, great bike wish I still had it.
sounds brand new! sweet bike!
Fresh pump seals and bearings for sure and your ready, and a shock rebuild , and your ready!
Motor has since seen a full rebuild, gaskets and all. Shock was rebuilt to my dad's weight as well. It still runs great. Super fast.
I can't wait until I get mine fully restored 100%.I just hope the warp 9 rims fit on the bike so I can make it street legal.
Beautiful bike
Where’s the rear shock?
It was being rebuilt. It's in now.
Like how his foot comes off the kick starter after every kick ffs dick
@@gruntabro1 screw you Mr G
The Magnesium water pumps from that year till 1987 did that when the bike set.
Ken Harris Yup jt had a hole in it which was leaking coolant into the main case. In this video, the leak was just a hose being unplugged.
Woo wee still crisp ! Choke it to kill it
That's like my dream bike
Sounds really strong even though you messed up the restore by painting the plastic
George Micheal did not paint any of the plastics. The frame, slightly, but not the plastics. They look like crap in person. We didn't want to restore it perfectly, just get it in good running shape so we can have some fun with it around the logging roads and mountains here :) it's been crashed a few times. Motor has since been rebuilt again and it runs even stronger. Maybe one day we'll restore it properly :)
Runs great, once rad hose hooked up. Didn't paint any plastics?
Stop holding the throttle wide open when you try to start it just kick it over three times to prime it and give it a good kick at tdc, it should start in two or three kicks at tdc, and finding tdc is Critical, you’ll be kicking it for days with the throttle held wide open like that just my advice! And you want to avoid touching the throttle after prime kicking it. trust me I have made that mistake on my 500s and I couldn’t get them started at all, I found my own trick hope it works for you!
thanks, this was my dad's first time kicking a dirtbike in probably decades and the first time this engine had run in 20 years. she starts first kick every time now!
@@IHazABone sweet man glad you got to share this moment with your dad!
I agree somewhere between 4 and 500 percent. I once wore out my leg when I first bought my 85 XR 600R which was an absolute BEAST to try and start. I learned the routine , NO GAS, whale on it at TDC. Repeat. I once almost broke my thumb because it backfired so bad on me that it catapulted my leg straight up to the handle bar and smashed into my thumb, another time my knee actually almost reached my ear. NO GAS.
Looks like a bad radiator cap, my 1984 rm125 did the same thing when I fired it up for the first time in 23 years, replaced the radiator cap and haven't had a problem yet
2 stroke Machines we missed a hose lol runs awesome now, we run it up and around the mountains and logging roads here (I know, MX bike, oh well) and it's wicked fast.
1984 was an air cooled bike. This bike has wings on the front of the gas tank like a water cooled bike would have on a 1985 cr 500r.
1981 was the first year for water cooling.
Not on this year and model if its in fact a 1984 cr 500r. 1984.was the last year that honda produced an air cooled cr 500r. I dont wanna debate it. Im just stateing leaning facts that I kmow to be true.
Incredible machine btw.
@@slickone1slickone117 it's a 250 my guy
My apologies
He hasn't got a clue wot he's doing
Gee Gee. You're an idiot.

@mike hunt chrew
oh oh
Wasn’t 85 the first year for liquid cool?
84 was the first year
@@IHazABone 82 model is liquid cooled
the CR 500's first year for LQ was 85 but the smaller bores got it beginning in 1981.
Where are you located
Tool!
