- this bike is coming out better than I could ever imagine. however, I will be pulling the engine back out to put in its original chassis! so I will be keeping an eye out for another CR500 engine.
As a legally blind person, the POV rides bring back good memories of when I use to ride Yamaha IT 250 in the 90s as a teen. If people can't handle a 2stroke, those single tracks are fun on bikes like the old reliable Honda XR 250R.
LOVED watching this video- your remarks after your ride are spot on- just get out and ride! Even if it's short spin. Dirt bikes equal mental therapy. Well done!!
Ok where ever you're riding reminds me of my youth riding bikes, good old Utah Desert
I personally love that bike
Watching you ride almost makes me want another bike. Even though the last one i had put me in the hospital and it was a year before I learned to walk again.
That looks so good in that new chassis
Cool!!! In so many ways!!
The way you describe the different in frames is very informative.
I'd love to ride there! Looks epic! That single trail is what I have done for decades in Australia.
- And the mountains in the background at the start, what a view!
Man that thing purrs!! Yes sir little man looking super good on the 112!!
I put a flywheel weight on my 500 af and it made the tight trails very doable. Bike could dang near stall out and keep going. Sweet ride!!
you have to ride it on a sandy track and let it really work ,and yourself too haha !!! that is the feeling of true power of a cr 500 !!
Bro, i remember taking my 97 yz250 down trails like that out in cali, and i HATED it hahaha just 2nd gear idle the whole time.
It would be cool to retro fit 85 plastics onto the af, to have the 85 looks with aluminum chassis, but modern suspension to me that would be sick
I think it was IMS that made a wide ratio gear box for the CR500. I think AJ Wagner got permission to clone it. You might just add one of those at an E-start. That would be pretty sick build for the Desert single track for sure and likely something not a lot of guys have.
The best thing you can do for any bike but especially a vibrating 2 stroke is install a Mako 360 bar clamp, it's pricey but worth every single penny, it makes a huge improvement, many top pros like Cody Webb and Graham Garvis use it and it's some of the best money I've ever spent on my bike, as far as as the stabilizer is concerned it's only good for high speed desert racing.
Where do you live? I'm so jealous of your riding spots
Get after it.👍🏁💯
Where do you live now? You in Reno? I live over in quincy. That'd be cool to meet up and ride some day.
Man were you guys ride it looks like the moon with a beard
I've always struggled on an aluminum frame bike, very rigid and stiff. Maybe its because im used to riding a different style and an AF kinda cramps that ? Haven't found one i like yet with a big enough cockpit. My Xr650 is is a peach.
I love when lund gos all ADHD. Come to Michigan and ride some real trails
Forgot to put the goggles on after a bit 😂😂
YOU NEED TO LET THE BEAST EAT. LOL The FRAME ITS A LITTLE TOO RIDGED FOR ME. GREAT JOB!
Your kid's riding looks awesome.🏁
