That's possibly the most beautiful dirt bike I've ever seen. Not exaggerating. Seriously, it's amazing. I'm exactly the right age to appreciate that look. The graphics are killer. Great work Ping.
Thanks Morley!
@@whiskeythrottlemedia great bike and that jump at 4:10 ... very nice.
"Plain" graphics translate to a clean look. Some graphics today are too busy. You guys nailed this build man it looks awesome.
When Honda released photos of this bike months ago I was stoked to see the blue seat and gold rims....but the iconic wing was missing! Honda missed the mark with the graphics on this anniversary bike- glad you did it some justice. This is the way it SHOULD look. Well done!
So nice to see younger guys connecting the past to the future. David is the renaissance man to our sport.
Although I am a loyal Kawasaki bike owner, when I first saw photos of the '83 works Honda's in the magazines of the day. They were like glamorous supermodels in the room, you just couldn't stop staring at them. Had the magazine's made the photo a full centrefold, it would of been hung on many a garage wall irrespective of brand loyalty.
The colour scheme just popped out at you with drool factor. It is a timeless look that still turns heads. It is no wonder the top MX riders of the day sought highly a Honda ride contract.
Love that retro look. Brings back memories of when I raced during the 80's & 90's.
This was extremely well done. I do love the look of that era. The simplicity of the graphics look so good. Well done guys!
Thanks, sir! Merry Christmas
Clean look is best look.
That color way is timeless! Cheers Ping, and Merry Christmas
Great looking bike! i love it. I'm 59 yrs old. I grew up riding Honda's during those vintage look years.
Beautiful whip@ 4:09! 😊
Love the retro look and you touched up just enough. 👍
I love it! Even the slight orange tint is perfect.
One odd thing- this really makes the modern plastics look skimpy!That's the only flaw
Reminds me of my 1986 CR250R… I like the looks
Ping!!! Hell yeah!! Workin mans build!! Good stuff. Stripped the paint off my yz pipe, polished her up and blow torched it for the factory blued look. Came out sweet, fun project. Cant always afford the best. Also probably not the smartest idea to dump all your money into your dirtbike right now. Anyways. Keep on rockin in the free world!!
Btw any more ask ping episodes coming up?!
Yes, they will pick back up soon
I grew up riding mid-eighties CRs and didn't really like the look of the stock throwback models...but this one looks great
Sicc retro graphics. I love the shorty silencer coming out in the back
Excellent Video! You guys know that in a local racer's mind, having a "FACTORY BIKE" look really scores points with the Chicks! Awesome job!
So Ping you’ve ridden this gen honda with the full pro circuit and the slip on, i have a 23 and am about to pull the trigger on a slip on. Is the t6 worth it?? Does it change the power, sound? Thank you
85 is the year Honda went red white and blue on the Honda wing. My favourite but this 83-84 style wing isn’t bad.
Looks sweet!
Love it , brings me back to a more exciting time.
Awesome Job
Thanks Wet Dookie

Oh wow 🤩

I’d love to have those graphics
Hit up D’cor visuals they can hook it up!
I still want a 92 cr and I’m a kawi fanboy
Hondas the way they should look
Love your videos. Merry Christmas ping
Thanks James, Merry Christmas
Were the plastics dyed or where did you get pre 92 red
Stock plastics
Wish it was a 300 injected two strokes!😜
Ol skool cross bar renthals ? Bike is sick 🤙🏻
Stock bars! Thanks!
Economy going in to the crapper… That’s the Democrat Run America, like every other time! Vote with your heads people, not your feelings!
AMERICA STRONG
STAY FREE
LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC
I'd crash that any day of the week!
😂😂
Only Rich people can afford these bikes!!
Needs some Camel stickers....
LMAO A budget 4 stroke race bike!
Thanks for stopping by!
fork oil? lol.
Yes. Lol?
"Economy going into the crapper..." Demo's an almost $10k dirt bike
@stuckcamping Yep, we're very fortunate that OEM's trust us to review their new models and provide the community with our opinions on them. However, that doesn't change what is going on around in the world around us.
The point you must have missed is that we kept the build modest when we could easily have bolted on another 10k in mods that nobody can afford right now.
Thanks for stopping by and for the views!
It sucks
Thanks for watching buddy!
