Your actually suppose two let motorcross ride you not force it what two do u go were the bike goes not force it you will hurt yourself if you force movment of the bike
It happens. Mostly because people don't give it a few slow kicks to start with and they ignore finding TDC which is fairly simple. Even then, there's at least a dozen broken kickstarters from my dad's bikes hanging in the shop from late 90's CR500's and KX500's up to '98.
I knew a kid who actually had it happen to him. He bought the bike wanting a bigger bike than his 300KTM so he traded his KTM for the CR500 cause the guy who owned it before was almost afraid of it. I wouldn’t go that far but he was definitely weary of the bike and my friend, who is a great guy and a very good friend but sometimes he has the absolute worst ideas of anyone I’ve ever met. He showed us the bike and he was the happiest I’ve ever seen and he went to start it and I told him bud you may wanna watch it those things are monsters. He kicks it over and we heard SNAP! And he looked like he just shit a brick, he hopped off the bike and fell immediately after landing in his ankle and through the tears we heard TAKE ME TO THE HOSPITAL! so we rushed him to the ER and told the doctor what happened and the doctor goes oh God. We asked what he meant by that and he goes I’ve seen this before. He said he’d seen it about 5 or 6 times in the 90’s and 2000’s and that he thought it was the last time he’d see something like that but apparently not. He told us to invest in a MX boot or brace to keep from snapping that twig of an ankle. We laughed so hard that he just burned our friend like that but my buddy recovered and actually rode the bike for a bit but found out he just didn’t have enough room to really let that monster eat
Might be a bit late to the party (sorry), but this is the first video I've seen of Colton where he's not just riding and it was still awesome! What a super chill dude he is. We all know Colton is a gifted rider, but it seems like he's also a very organized mechanic and very relaxed in front of a camera. Very enjoyable to watch!
It funny for my a zoomer to think of a time that people raced such awesome 2strokes and the colourfully decorated helmet and the xc courses odd I'm feeling nastalgia for something I never was alive for
@@elmuffinmanthecartelguy7296 I'm a gen z and I have an 02 kx 2 stroke and it's green,red,blue,white,black,pink, and Mt gear is red white and blue so with non symmetrical colors and gold tint goggles so I don't look modern
I'm going back on old videos. Man, I love this build. You're living the dream, bro. The wife is even sleeping next to you in the garage while you work! ❤
I used to ride a YZ490 back in the day. Geared up for max top end. Still had enough torque to rip a huge rooster from standing. We used to ride every weekend from Friday arvo to Sunday night. Fire trails, sand dunes, steep hills, creek crossings, you name it. There were 6 of us, sometimes more, and we were competitive. Every time we rode, it was a race. It was the most fun I ever had. These days, at 63 yrs old, I'm riding a WR450F. It's just not the same.
Watched a video the other day of a guy getting tossed off one of these and it brought back memories of my uncle riding when I was a kid. This was the last big bike he had and he rode it like it was nothing. I was 10 and always stood stood in awe of his bikes because they were huge to me but I never appreciated his riding skills until I got older. He had been riding since he could walk and was the toughest sob I have ever known. Great video
Rewatching this video again. Best part is his gramps coming to drop it off to his grandson. Missing my grandfather this time of year.. my Christmas seasons haven’t been the same and kind of died since he passed away. Love who ya got while ya got them!
As an original 90's spanner spinner all I can say say is Old Honda memories here bro!!! I lOVE your garage setup and HELL yeah these bikes command respect!
Raced a 97' KX500 once and it was a fantastic experience I don't believe the power of these bikes is what makes them a beast. Honestly my 450 still scares me more with its speed. But what shocked me the most about the 500s, was the violent vibrations from the motor and how quickly it wears your arms out. Like it was just evil how this bike wears you out purely with its own idle. Definitely one of the most interesting and fun bikes I have been given the chance to ride Shame the prices nowadays just make them a museum piece
Why wasn't this recommended to me a long time ago? RUclips has failed me yet again. There is so much talent in one garage. Aaron has mad skills & excellent taste to go with it.
It's barks "Back, Back Back, Back"!!! Get behind one and you'll know why. I used to just duck when one was passing me on the track, I knew it would be throwing big rocks at me. 😂😂😂
Thank you for adding the scenes with his daughter. Great to see the real life part. Also, going to be calling the seat company you used to see if they can help me out with my 1990 Africa Twin!
Nothing better than a 500. Super easy to start, using the secret, turns well, jumps well and halls ass. I had two. Dead reliable bike. Mexico was no match. I had a Yamaha IT something kick stand and it was so useful. Great video. Well done.
I noticed at 18:48 he says that the sprocket bolts keep on vibrating loose. I know there’s a lock wiring technique that they use on airplane propellers to keep them from loosening. You have to use bolts with holes drilled through them, but that could easily be done. Just an idea. Awesome video man!
I like watching Aaron work through a project. Very methodic. A good way to go through any project. Was stoked to see a CR500 roll out of the truck. Would like to see more detail on your finishes you use and how to re spoke a wheel.
Your "cookie salsa" remark to the young lady shows me that you are beyond a stellar feller you are a real man and a father(just the kind of person who should be procreating i m o) yet another reason why I love your channel.... Fricken "Cookie salsa" 🤘🏼😅♥️
I miss my 1994 cr125 high compression, pipe, reeds, lightened crank and rod, and all the goodies on c16 with castor 927. I raced AMA district 16 for a long time. 125jr and 125B. That bike ripped, would easily keep up with mostly stock 250s. I miss those days so much. I was lucky enough my uncles buisness was one of my sponsors so every race I had new Dunlop soft tires, air filter, filter spray, fuel, and oil. I wish I was 16 again. Favorite track was always Fond Du Lac Wisconsin, the step up there after the first turn was huge. 4th gear wide open all the way through the face, easily land 100 or 120 feet out. Then always arenacross in Rockford Illinois that was always a fun track too, not nearly as fast but very technical. Glen Helene was always more of a Motocross track then a supercross track, and so sandy.
Seriously, thank you for keeping it stock looking, particularly a classic like that. No disrespect, but a lot of rebuilds these days when the bike turns in to a 2 wheel advertisement for every nut and bolt and part on the bike is a little played out.
I can't stand 99% of car shows. The only really truly good channel is Millyard's personal RUclips channel. None of the people watching have an extra $35,000 of some other person's money, to just buy 100% custom parts, and a team of 12 mechanics to do all the work for them. Car shows are completely out of touch with the average person.
What a build dude, I used to own a ‘92 wr200, loved it to bits, had awesome memories on it as a youngster, but a few years ago I had to let it go since it was getting old and it was gonna be costly to restore it back to its glory, so I sold it to one of my dads mates that repairs bikes and he got it running better than it has ever ran, I recently got back into riding after 5+ years and bought myself a ‘08 Yamaha wr450f, my dads mate comes riding with us every now and again on the 200, damn I miss those days but it’s in a better home now
Yep, humility, tough one, however necessary. Buddy of mine in the late 90's catapulted a CR450 into bleacher section at Oakland Arenacross. Great rider and track builder/designer, to much guts and glory got the best of him.
I love ya curb service. She is precious. Very nice bike and build. I feel in love with the first Elsinores, back in 73 I think. Long time ago. Ride safe.
I hab the 1989 model an I will be honest that bike put the fear of God in me an it was a handful to ride it. YOU WILL NEVER USE ALL THE HORSEPOWER THAT THIS BEAST HAS!
This is a CRINGE comment. But since you said it, go check out the FortNine motorcycle channel. Ryan looks like he is 12 years old, but he talks like a more intelligent Charlie Sheen. He has a tremendous broadcast voice.
Great job man it turned out beautiful I had a 1981 Yamaha YZ 465H that I bought for 100 bucks from a guy he couldn’t get it running and I did what you did completely went through it and then when it was all done that bike was vicious but you can’t beat the CR 500. There’s nothing on the planet like that, good job man good video
Man, you are a perfectionist, well done best looking CR 500 ever. Back in the day we all had 250s CRs >KXs RMs, one mate has "THE BEAST" an 86 CR 500, It was insane.
Old school 2 stroke trick. Because the 500 doesn't have a power value to release cilinder pressure at high RPM, the "piston port" does the job.. was very popular on the old KX 60 to improve over rev. Think of it like putting your finger over the end of a syringe in the pull action there's a limit to the speed air is pulled into it.. release a bit of pressure the speed that it fills increases. Same inside the cylinder, that's why power values were invented.. That my interpretation of it anyway.
@@surg71 I'll need to check with my motor guru Varner on that one, power valve creates back pressure so I'm not getting introducing new ways to regulate air intake so as not to create a lean condition.
Wiesco tells you to do it in the instructions for the piston kit If I recall on my 91 cr 250 the hole was to allow some extra lubrication for the bridge on the exhaust port. However I don’t think the 500 has the bridge?? So maybe it just ads a bit of extra lube to the cylinder above the port?
@@macmckie2238 great explanation i thought i may have something to do with crank case pressure on the intake stroke but i was guessing. Could be for extra oil like old m8 below said also.
It was recommended from Wiseco on the CR500 with the style of its Exhaust Bridge. This is their info note: Relieving the exhaust bridge will make sure there’s no expansion past the cylinder wall, but you still want to make sure you keep the heat as low as possible. With small holes drilled into the skirt of the piston, oil underneath the piston will makes its way through the holes, and lubricate the contact point between the piston and exhaust bridge. Better lubrication means less friction, and less friction means less heat, which is what you want to make sure that you don’t have any abnormal wear.
@@AaronColton93 Thanks so much for this explanation! I was completely stumped and now the world makes sense again. I've only "rebuilt" a couple of engines my entire life, so I'm not exactly up on special techniques that optimize part performance above and beyond factory specs and drilling the piston skirt was definitely a new one to me. Rebuilt in quotes because in one instance, my first, I shattered the piston skirt on my clapped out Honda "Red Rider" 125 and basically just replaced the piston after fishing and flushing the piston crumbs out of the crankcase. Not my proudest moment, but I sold it some time later still running quite well for an '80 125 2 stroke engine. Thanks again for enlightening me. 😁👍
I remember my first experience with the 500 very well. Practice day at a track in Tyler Texas called Swan raceway. I’ve been riding my 250 most of the day and one of my buddies brought that man killer with him. I thought I was going to be cool make a couple of laps before we went home on that widow maker. Got on the starting gate and noticed the rear tire would not fit in any of the grooves cut by the 250s and I thought that was kind of cool. I wicked it and before I could exhale I had a black streak on my chest protector from the rear tire and a broken foot. Thanks but no thanks, fuck that machine from the depths of hell
basti1255 perfectly true, keeps it cool and helps keep the metal on the bridge at the same expansion rate as the surrounding metal in the bore. The gases pumped thru the holes achieve this as well. I am not a mechanic but I do my own motors so others may know more on this subject. When you buy a piston from Wiseco it has instructions on how and why to drill these holes.
She’s a ripper! I would love to see you work up a Garage 93 BRP 650r. Two of Honda’s biggest beasts sitting next to each other would be a magicial sight.
Yes, on the exhaust port there is a division, idk how it's called in english, anyways, water does not cool it so it expands with heat and there is a risk to seize the piston. By making holes on the exhaust side oil will get on it and will cool it down more and it will lubrificate to help it now seize, hope you understand it
Its called an exhaust bridge. Hence the name Bridgeport in other forms of two stroke racing. Thank you for the explanation of the drilled holes. That was a mystery.

“I even knew a guy that broke his leg kickstarting one”
Yeah that seems fine, I’ll take 2 please.
It happens. Mostly because people don't give it a few slow kicks to start with and they ignore finding TDC which is fairly simple. Even then, there's at least a dozen broken kickstarters from my dad's bikes hanging in the shop from late 90's CR500's and KX500's up to '98.
XR500 kickstart fit my 86 CR500 and they are steel and longer.
That's because the bike will kick you back when you kick it over. Must find TDC first, and avoid loading the cylinder with fuel.

It helps lubricant the cylinder bridge so that it doesn’t wear your piston down as fast
Omg your daughter is so cute...I remember when mine were little like that lol
I hab the 1989 model an I will be honest that bike put the fear of God in me an it was a handful to ride it. YOU WILL NEVER USE ALL THE HORSEPOWER THAT THIS BEAST HAS!
Truly a MX 2 stroke legend..
CR 500
Love to have one in my living room..
Congratulations on doing a great rebuild
He looks like a 17y old boy is stuck in a body of a 30y old. Strange..
This is a CRINGE comment. But since you said it, go check out the FortNine motorcycle channel. Ryan looks like he is 12 years old, but he talks like a more intelligent Charlie Sheen. He has a tremendous broadcast voice.
@@Ritalie "Talk like an intelligent charlie sheen' fuck dude I will NEVER get that out of my mind watching Ryan now.
@@Ritalie do you even know what cringe means?
@@Ritalie LMFAO !!! i was just watching that guy ! hahah ya but his filming is aaa. same with his knowledge take care
Go look at engineering explained he looks like....a old young person
3:51 - "my most nervous moment of all time."
This guy built the engine in a day, I can’t even build a child’s Lego set in a week😃
Lol... 😂..
Me too..
Great job man it turned out beautiful I had a 1981 Yamaha YZ 465H that I bought for 100 bucks from a guy he couldn’t get it running and I did what you did completely went through it and then when it was all done that bike was vicious but you can’t beat the CR 500. There’s nothing on the planet like that, good job man good video
Man, you are a perfectionist, well done best looking CR 500 ever.
Back in the day we all had 250s CRs >KXs RMs, one mate has "THE BEAST" an 86 CR 500, It was insane.
How do I like a video more than once?
By sharing it with your buddies 👍🏼
What was the reason for drilling the piston on the exhaust side, ive been racing 500's since my first one in 85 and never heard about drilling.
Same.
Old school 2 stroke trick. Because the 500 doesn't have a power value to release cilinder pressure at high RPM, the "piston port" does the job.. was very popular on the old KX 60 to improve over rev.
Think of it like putting your finger over the end of a syringe in the pull action there's a limit to the speed air is pulled into it.. release a bit of pressure the speed that it fills increases.
Same inside the cylinder, that's why power values were invented..
That my interpretation of it anyway.
@@surg71 I'll need to check with my motor guru Varner on that one, power valve creates back pressure so I'm not getting introducing new ways to regulate air intake so as not to create a lean condition.
Wiesco tells you to do it in the instructions for the piston kit
If I recall on my 91 cr 250 the hole was to allow some extra lubrication for the bridge on the exhaust port. However I don’t think the 500 has the bridge??
So maybe it just ads a bit of extra lube to the cylinder above the port?
@@macmckie2238 great explanation i thought i may have something to do with crank case pressure on the intake stroke but i was guessing. Could be for extra oil like old m8 below said also.
What's up with taking a drill to the piston? Lightening? Balancing?
Same here, why???
i think he engraved a logo or name into it
blog.wiseco.com/two-stroke-how-to-relieving-the-exhaust-bridge-and-drilling-lubrication-holes
It was recommended from Wiseco on the CR500 with the style of its Exhaust Bridge. This is their info note: Relieving the exhaust bridge will make sure there’s no expansion past the cylinder wall, but you still want to make sure you keep the heat as low as possible. With small holes drilled into the skirt of the piston, oil underneath the piston will makes its way through the holes, and lubricate the contact point between the piston and exhaust bridge. Better lubrication means less friction, and less friction means less heat, which is what you want to make sure that you don’t have any abnormal wear.
@@AaronColton93 Thanks so much for this explanation! I was completely stumped and now the world makes sense again. I've only "rebuilt" a couple of engines my entire life, so I'm not exactly up on special techniques that optimize part performance above and beyond factory specs and drilling the piston skirt was definitely a new one to me. Rebuilt in quotes because in one instance, my first, I shattered the piston skirt on my clapped out Honda "Red Rider" 125 and basically just replaced the piston after fishing and flushing the piston crumbs out of the crankcase. Not my proudest moment, but I sold it some time later still running quite well for an '80 125 2 stroke engine. Thanks again for enlightening me. 😁👍
That was my dream bike as a kid. Just beautiful man.
My brother had a 94 cr500 2 stroke,
Dangerous, crazy power
Is this a good beginner bike somone said to me this bike powerband was like a 65cc but bigger version
😂
Whoever that dude is, he's guilty 🤣
Not just no but hell no
If you built a 500 exactly to the same tune as a KX65 you would have over a hundred horsepower. And the respect of all who witnessed its passing.
I remember my first experience with the 500 very well. Practice day at a track in Tyler Texas called Swan raceway. I’ve been riding my 250 most of the day and one of my buddies brought that man killer with him. I thought I was going to be cool make a couple of laps before we went home on that widow maker. Got on the starting gate and noticed the rear tire would not fit in any of the grooves cut by the 250s and I thought that was kind of cool. I wicked it and before I could exhale I had a black streak on my chest protector from the rear tire and a broken foot. Thanks but no thanks, fuck that machine from the depths of hell
Can anybody tell me why he drilled in the piston?
the bores he made are to lubricate the bridge of the exhaust port :)
I was curious about this as well
basti1255 perfectly true, keeps it cool and helps keep the metal on the bridge at the same expansion rate as the surrounding metal in the bore. The gases pumped thru the holes achieve this as well. I am not a mechanic but I do my own motors so others may know more on this subject. When you buy a piston from Wiseco it has instructions on how and why to drill these holes.
She’s a ripper! I would love to see you work up a Garage 93 BRP 650r. Two of Honda’s biggest beasts sitting next to each other would be a magicial sight.
CR 500cc 2 Stroke fans should petition Honda to make a 2023 model, with both electric and kick start and fuel injection.
Forget the bike for a minute.
How you interacted with your daughter wins my vote.
Absolutely credit to you ❤
And the bikes an added plus
Does anyone know why he drilled into the piston
Yes, on the exhaust port there is a division, idk how it's called in english, anyways, water does not cool it so it expands with heat and there is a risk to seize the piston. By making holes on the exhaust side oil will get on it and will cool it down more and it will lubrificate to help it now seize, hope you understand it
Its called an exhaust bridge. Hence the name Bridgeport in other forms of two stroke racing.
Thank you for the explanation of the drilled holes. That was a mystery.
@@georgeanddaddecker7563 i'm sorry but i'm italian and i didn't know it was called like that, thank you for letting me know
@@banaagiala8573 does it only work for big bore (500) or will it work with a 250?. I don't race but ride trail and sand dunes.
@@jasonsorensen6993 it works for every kind of 2 stroke engine with an exhaust bridge, i do it on my 86cc
