Wow, you do an amazing job, so much talent. It's so awesome to see these restorations of these old mx bikes. Thank you for posting your fine pieces of art.
@sevendyseven4090 read the description of the video here, there's a drop down menu description. Trust me this Is his last build, if he sees this comment he will confirm it.
Hello TNT. I really enjoy your videos. This CR 500 build, hits close to home. I had the privilege, of owning a 1987 CR500. It was a beast, to say the least. I think this bike is beautiful. I love the gold rims on this Honda and I love them on the older Suzuki’s. I hope this is not your last build. You always do a tremendous job. Hope to see more builds in the future. Best wishes to you and your family. 👍😎
Excellent Video, Amazing job on the restoration! A lot of times those 500's are not really run into the ground is because 90% of people who bought them could barely Ride them! Thanks for Sharing! 😮
Always loved the 500's, your restos were the best, firstly hope your health is good and one day costs restore to reasonable levels, hope its going to a great home and you came close to recovering costs, you are a master
I love it!!! Fantastic job. No one knows how hard it is to film and edit something like this unless they’ve done it. Great job! I’m doing a 1985 right now.
Oupstanding work as always. Your videos provide so much knowledge and inspiration and have always helped me with my 88 cr250r build. I learned so much and restoring the tank was incredible. Now this video hits me because I regret recently selling my 1 owner 1983 honda xr350r which looked exactly like this bike. Now that I dont have it there only one thing to do. You know what that is. Im on the hunt already. Thank you for the inspiration and knowledge and motivation.
Beautiful job. I’d love to see you build my two 1990 model 250s. I know I’ll never be able to give them the true restorations they both deserve, hate doing the bikes such a disfavor by letting them continue sitting in the corner
@jackporter4180 unfortunately this was my last full bike restoration. I will do parts for people but no more full bike builds. Too time consuming. No time for my family.
The hours were over 500. hard to say because alot of time is wasted plating time, sandblast time waiting for my compressor to catch up. Too many hours cleaning every little part. Total cost to date and i know i missed stuff is $11400 cad or $8500 usd just in parts and services. No labor costs included in that amount. The bike has sold and is being picked up tomorrow.
Wow, you knocked it out of the park! It looks amazing! Can you please link where you bought the blue fork boots? I need to get some for my CR125 build. OEM ones I found look much darker blue. I like the lighter blue you have on the 500. Thnx!
Good luck kicking over your 500cc two stoke while using a "decompression leaver" lol how about you use electric start or future ideas like dyson spheres?
Oh dang!! Well I guess you are done building them now I hate that I really enjoyed your builds...Maybe find a decent one later on here in the states, thanks for all the videos..
Good Job !…I Must say tho…watching you Pull the Motor was a Joke…I would have Pulled that out After taking the Sub frame Tank & Radiators off first …Beautiful Resto tho bud🦾
Seriously that bike looks better than any cr500 I've ever seen
I had that exact bike when I was in my 20’s…that sound could bring a tear to my eye. Life was so much better back then…
Thanks , it’s a top cross bike , a think Andre malherbe , Eric geboers and Dave Thorpe driving this one nice to see this , fan Henri put Belgium 🇧🇪 👍👍👍
This is really turned out to be a piece of art. And I am only half way in the video...
troy we hope to see you again even if you never do another restoration just making videos of small parts restores are cool as well
but what ever lies ahead in the future for you i wish you the best and its been a honor watching and talking with you over these past years
im sure i speak for those who have came to here to learn and those who will in the future thanks for everything Troy
good luck and God Bless
