The distinct sound of a 1985 CR500! Not just the short rod, but the aggressive ignition map and high compression. That baby just barks. Thanks for sharing this, there's not any videos like this of an 85 CR5 in the wild actually ripping and not for just 5 seconds. Awesome bike bro!
Had a ‘88 Cr500 and rode the hell out of it for 2 years straight , only thing I replaced was clutch plates - sold her in 91 and missed her everyday since!
Stroker crank cr500r! The widow maker 😅 they definitely are sweet bikes. Did you upgrade the magnesium cover that tends to rot out with waterpump to the newer aluminum style?
The stroke is same length all years. The rod is 7mm shorter 84-86 yrs. So is the cylinder deck height. What you have is more crankcase pressure and less mass rotating so they spool up and hit much more aggressively and have more torque. Not that you can't stroke a cr 500 but they aren't "strokers" stock any year. 🤙🏼😎
First 500r I ever rode was the 85', man I wanted to keep it. I later bought a 84 and raced it, both were similar, but my 84 had a explosive power band and the 85 was smoother.
Que maravilla de máquina japonesa ...que placer ver esta maravilla de máquina japonesa oír su sonido de escape y motor ...es una pena que no se sigan fabricando ...ese sonido de dos tiempos suena como música.....
I bought one of these in the mid 80" and not a pro rider at all , Had it less then 2 weeks about killed myself legit , Man oh man they are wicked fast and not meant for novice riders i found that out haaa !
Had an 87. Rode in New England enduros. Registered and street legal in NH. Lights , horn , mirror and a quieter silencer. Stopped by police many times, had all paperwork and inspection sticker in order. So much fun. Put thousands of miles on it. 35 years later still miss it.
I've got a full power 85 in my kitchen in england, exactly the same look as this bike....just looking at it every morning before work gee's me up....a classic dirt bike if EVER there was......✌
Puts a smile on my face. Sounds so crisp
That’s great to hear!
Hell yeah! Love the matching, period correct, retro riding gear, too.
One of the greatest dirt bikes ever.
The king!
THE dirt bike ever 😉
POWER MONSTER
My 88 out of all the bikes I've owned is the only one I regret selling!
Competition ready five hundred race
Braaaaap! Braaaaap!! 💕💕🎶🎶👌👌

@@orangeryno Thanks! This bike is definitely more than the average rider can handle like me😃
@@TopRevs The best open class riders of that day where asking their mechanics to de-tune them!

Things a torque monster sounds so good.
What a beast! i have that same Dep silencer on my 88 KX500.
@@trxmh Awesome!
У меня тоже KX500, только '93г.💪🤘
The best year for the 500 after this year, they tamed down this classic. ❤
David Bailey loved his '86. His favorite was the '84 RC 500 and then the '86.
Finally 🙌 Someone who REALLY knows the half TDC kick and return lol! Awesome bike 👌✨
She starts right up if you kick it right 👍
Would love to have that! A true collectors bike.
1985, the real production CR500
I miss my 500 as much as my youth.
I like your helmet fitting in with your retro bike
You are a monster on that brother!!
Sounds great!

My first CR500 was an 1985. Wish I still had her. My second is a 2000. In the garage now. Love them both dearly.
I don't mind you riding my bike, but go easy on her, dam. Lol
Always wanted one, but I'm too short and can't get my feet down 😢😢😢
My cr480 was nastier than my 2 cr500s,they tamed it to go faster on track.
Здравствуйте сколько цена на 500 кубов
