The 500 is a beast, at first I didn't think it was that powerful but as soon as i jumped back on my 450 I was shocked at the power difference, I can see what all the hype is about now

You can't beat the sound of a 500 2 stroke. 👍
👊
It's the torque brother. A CR500R makes way more torque than a XR650R
@@TommySearle100
they way these two bikes generate torque is the problem - XR650R is a tracktor of a dirtbike it has torque in almost all of it's rpm range specialy in low rpms and has torque on demand - with the cr you have to find the powerband and yes- in the powerband you have more power than a xr650r @@prospectorsoils1240
@@prospectorsoils1240the xr650r is actually a tameable beast. It's a proper Enduro bike. The 500 is either nothing, or tear itself out from under you. I had a 87 cr250 and it had a wicked power and, but the 500 is just way more insane. High revving hi power hi torque death machine. I never was able to fully ride my 250 to its full potential, the 500 is too scary for myself. I like my skeleton inside my body thank you
Considering the engine design is 36yrs plus old, being comparable to todays 450's isn't too shabby.
Agreed
How did it feel ? " I feel like a sock on a washing line, on a windy day !" 😂 I weighed 145 when l was riding a 500 2-stroke. I was like a flag on it ! 🤣
😂 Scary when the power kicks in
That's 1 of the funniest things I've read in a while well done
If this doesn’t get a million views I don’t know what will
😂
I can’t think of a better rider to ride this 500, you rode it like you weren’t intimidated by it’s fierce reputation.👏🏻 Rock on Tommy 😎
Really nice build!
I like how they try that engine in almost every frame.
They do a great job with fitting it in
That pipe work of art....you know how get power down mate.... beautiful sound mate👍🏴😍
Good stuff Tommy, your openness in admitting your scared of things on the bikes but then crack through them like it’s nothing is so entertaining to witness! Keep it up bud 🤘
Most people think four strokes make more torque than 2 strokes, but they don’t. Cr500 makes about the same hp as a 450 but has about %20 more torque.
I think they should open the displacement categories up again. 250 vs 250 and 450 vs 450. Apparently two strokes are way cheaper to run and that would give the privateers and small teams a great possibility to save some money. I think that's highly desirable.
What a machine !!!! Gotta love the smokers proper man’s bike
Good ol' times, makes me miss my '91 CR500 more and more. Thing was a handful in the original body frame, I could only imagine that engine in an aluminum frame. 😍
Can’t beat the smell of a 2 stoke great vlog Tommy on a beast of a machine 👍
I have watched so many of these CR500 videos and usually the rider has no idea how to stay in the powerband. It is a mid range RPM motor with tons of torque. This guy knows how to ride a 500!!
Bike looks lethal 😬
Would be cool to see some lap times vs the 450
Lap times will prove slower because it's much harder to ride the 500. It'll win a drag race but not lap times.
@@peaceprayer595 even the drags are a toss up. Traction is a big factor until the high gears.
@@McNamEvan Yeah, you could be right there. We would start a race in 3rd gear on our 500s back in the day. Everybody else thought they were planting corn. Kaplan America pretty much demolishes the competition and holeshots nearly every race on his 500 though. There's a lot of relative factors to be considered. Gotta tell you bro. That 500 is one one sexy beast, and I'm not a great Honda moto fan. Husqvarna is all we have in our stables at present, but I sure would appreciate that beast.
@@peaceprayer595 Ken Kaplan is great, big fan of his channel and 500's in general. I think 500s are more fun, torquier, and lower maintenance than a 450. Id take a 500 over a 4 stroke any day but Kap can ride, I don't know if I would be as successful holeshoting 450s as him. The 4 strokes are just easier.
@@McNamEvan have you checked out the BRC 500 conversions? ...counterbalancer...fit right in the 250 2 stroke frames...KTM ... Husky ... GasGas and Yamaha version
Tom looking good on that firebreathing monster 🤙🏻 You make it look too easy man ! Loved the vid thanks guys 🍻
Was expecting billy to pop out and say "giz a go".
That thing is a dream. I bet the suspension helps transfer the power. The old bikes were heavy and suspension was no where near what we have today
I been racing the 500cc bikes for many years!
First of all I'm 6,4' 225lbs so I benefits from the torque and you handle the snappy power whit the clutch!!!
Keep it in 3th and one pull as you exit the corner boom and it revs up fast !
The 4stroke guys dont do that form of style.
We how did race the big class in early 80s to 2000. We road different to be fast.
My friend Marcus Hansson are the last Swed🇸🇪 to win the title in 1994. I rode Honda 480R 500R and ofcourse the CR500.
I was whit Kawasaki rode the KX500 and the SR500 as well.
The KX dont bogg after landings because it has an exhaust port that can be adjusted to a chosen powerband to fit style and track.
The CR500 does not have that port that means your porting of the cylinder must be spot on! In old days when slippery mud races we add a bottom cylinder gasket to reduce compression and change porting timing mostly! That's how we did it old school days. Nice video would love try that bike I believe in that very much! A fuel injection system on that motor and we get even further! Best regards from Sweden 🇸🇪
I love them! KX500, CR500, CR250, KTM380,300! All!
This is by far the best sounding CR 500 i've ever heard. 😻
About time we had some more 2 stroke action!! 💨💨💨
To be fair you gave the 500 a good run! Quite suits the way you ride looked awesome either way!
Thanks mate
i have literally binge watched these vlogs lol love tommy and all the guys keep them coming guys!
Thanks mate
What a mint video. Made me smile start to finish.
That machine is propper trouser tent tackle!! Shplendid riding Thomas 🙏
Service Honda/Built500-A.J Waggoner builds the best and pioneered the cr500 in the crf450 frame. Absolute Beasts
You could see where you were getting used to the power delivery (and engine braking) because of a few body positioning mishaps, but you were still getting after it. Very cool bike. Imagine it's very fun on a tight technical track with big jumps after hairpins.. or a nice open field/Baja style riding. Thanks for sharing!
Another class video, be awesome to see the boss man take that out to compare it to the ones he won the world championships on.
That sound always takes me back to 1990 hawkstone park 500gp, happy days
Funny I got my first cr 500 when I was fifteen. Don't know exactly what the hell my parents were thinking. Thank God for them for letting me get it. I was riding a husky 510 at that point. But when I rode Cr 500 the husky felt like tank and the Honda felt gd stallion. Just my story. I did blow up. Best time I had growing up.
That’s mega
Best 500 ride video on UA-cam
I put a smart carb on mine and got it ported it gave it more straight from the bottom to the top and got the crank worked so it cut the vibration ALOT
That bike is crazy good , and l am not a fan of 500 2-strokes. 250 2-strokes are my favorite. But the way this 500 runs and the suspension looks like it's working right out of the box. Tommy is hauling on it ! 😁
Mega video boys! 👏 Great content. Would love to see you race one against the newer stuff like Nev 272. Keep up the Stirling work boys 🔥🇬🇧👍
Finally someone ripping the 5-Hundoe! As of late there has been videos titles stating “ 500cc ripping” “WFO on the 500” ect. Thanks Tommy boy for twisting the grip!
It doesn't need to be revved though. All its power is low to midrange. You dont gain anything by revving except arm pump.
What a weapon I used to have a 89 cr 500 what a machine
So fast
That is a super nice build and that pipe is so factory looking. To be fair you rode it pretty well if that is your first time on it, love these vlogs TS100 🇬🇧🔥
Cheers mate
I love how you can literally see how fast and mad that thing is on video
I've seen them around (online) in the US from Built 500 and others. The 500 is mostly what I raced and it's my dream bike. Nice video. Cheers.
What a genius cr 500 motor in a modern crf450 frame...
Love 4 strokes but that seems like way more fun...
would be super cool to see you race that beast that sounds awsome.come on tommy go to a local club race and rip that thing.
That bike looks and sounds beautiful 😍 You look great on it 😁
Super sweet!! I ride a 2T..22yz125x at 61 and love it!! Grew up on 2t!
Tommy, bro, you gotta get one of these and race it in the 450 class. See if you can borrow one! Leverage those contacts of yours!
The best sounding 500 ive ever Heard.
You are looking great on this Bike.
Best sound ever imo! You made that beast look so easy to ride, also can we have a vlog on your old race bikes if you have them put in a collection
That's a sick bike and wicked vid. Not a lot of peeps can ride a 5hundy on the pipe like that. Respect.
That’s a sick bike! I love how it sounds!
Building a Kx500AF for myself. 500s are awesome
One hell of a nice bike, runs perfect & ridden correctly 👍
Great video bud welcome to the 500 class man it ain't no 450 4 stroke that's why it scares a lot of people I put one on my Honda 85 three-wheeler ATC, man what a blast broke a couple collarbones and a few ribs but that son of a gun was a beast hope you reconsidered a 500s it's a lot of bike but from watching your videos dude you got it you just got to understand where to kick it and we're not to anyhow good luck love the videos dude Charlie Western PA out by steel City Motocross Western Pennsylvania
That bike rips for sure. Miss my old 85 CR500
Too fast for me
What a bit of kit.
Sounds a beast. It's a great job, looks like a production bike not a special.
500 dinger 😍😍😍 She sounded sweet.
Did think it was yours Tommy considering it had #100 on the plates.
Good luck this weekend 👊👊👊
Seeing 2 smoker 500 motors put in modern frames makes me all warm inside
Forgive me, I'm from the States. Dave Thorpe is referred to as "The Boss"? If so, I love it!!! Dude is a LEGEND!!!
The Boss or Sir Dave is how we have to Adress him
Maybe Mr Dave Thrope should let you ride the factory Honda 500, he won the world championship cause it's a bloody beast compared to that 500 you rode. The power delivery was mental to pull your arms off and 45 min around Farleigh Castle !!!! I have to say that bike did sound wicked and love the 2 stroke crackle even now. Great video gents
Love the 5 hunnies, got my 1st one when i was 16 84 Cr500 light switch. Lol that 2022 bike is beautiful!!
CR 500 king of beers!
Hell yeah!
Man those 500s there was a kx 500 at Mildenhall today and the geezer was kicking it like a ginger step brother 😳
Good lad Tommy nice to see you on 2 stroke 💨💨💨💨
nice vid tom,you had more moments on that bike in that vid than you had all season riding your 450
Notice the back wheel is turning like 30mph faster than the bike is going hahahahaha! Beast of a bike! Great video mate!
They say in life goes round in circles..... Cant wait for 2strokes to come back.
They make torque. Lots of torque and different than the 450s. Can ride a gear high and the chassis settles
Soo much fun on a 2t most young ones won't no or experience this compared to the 4t of today's world
All the Japanese need to bring some 2t loving to the table
wow ,that takes me back,, the sound , you cant beat a crisp sounding cr 500 , i used to ride a ex markeast wood 250 , was his old practice bike , a rocket ,,,i just got to say ,u rode the socks off that , great video ,, they used to have probs back inda day , with the throttle slide sticking , lol just to let u no ,, nice job , u have my thums up master tommy, stay safe my man
I believe the BBR 500 engine out of Canada does not bog.. I've watched this video and the BBR 500 video from a UK guy, and there is considerable difference in engine performance
You forgot to mention middlesex mx he set the bike up on his dyno 👌👊 bikes lovely even better up close 😍
Tommy taming the beast, that last time seen a CR 500 your Boss was riding it, I loved to scare myself stupid on that. 👊
Man that thing sounds nice. Obviously beautiful everywhere else...but that sound!
Imagine doing three 45min+2lap motos with these monsters.
The old GP format.
Thats how I used to practice.
Don't have a lot of time for that anymore though.. 🙁
Quality vlog, great to hear a 500 on Pipe. Looked good.
there is no better sound than CR500!...he nailed that bike, everything about it looks so sweet......they never seemed that bad back in the day but we had nothing to compare them too......a 450 is ten times easier to ride for sure
we used them in so cal for the desert back in 70-90s, no better bike for big hill climbs and endless sand washes
I was hoping you'd open it up a bit , it had so much left to give
That thing is a beast...shows how good you are on a bike on a smoker 👌
Thanks
5:22 wild style 😂🤣
I describe the power delivery as 1st 1/4 of throttle selects power output the next 3/4 selects vibration level 😂
Side note… why don’t you bring that nice and crispy 5-piece to Straight Rhythm in the States! You look pretty good on the thing.
Would've been interesting some lap times comparison between 500 and 450 in the same day sessions
awesome work guys and the bike sounds mint
Oh my god…. That sounds incredible, you get some great gigs TS100 👍💪
Any bike anywhere absolutely insane
That'll sharpen your riding up Tommy lad.
You should try my 300 hybrid 👍💪 nice vlog 💪
That Red Rocket is a beast.
I would love a spin on that in the modern frame , i had an 88' & it was awesome , but I'd imagine even better like this one's set up
Pre '90 was uber brutal, more fierce than later engine.
Later engines are just as powerful, they were just more manageable.
A 450 is easier to ride because it revs slowly and is a much slower bike. I did lots of drag races with my 450 Honda vs my ‘91 CR500. 3-5 bike lengths every time.
Great rider in this video; went straight into the powerband, no problem.
Honda should just make a 500 conversion for these bikes.
They are fun a bit fast for me though 😅
@@TommySearle100 I recon you need one. Perfect videos series too. Get Billy to build one as well and have a competition.
Banger of a bike and vlog 👊🏻✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻💯🔥
Power valve opens and hold on! Good ride Tom. Get Honda to put a 500 in your enduro bike... it'll be fine.
No power valve on a cr 500 engine.
Kx 500 has a power valve
The machine of all machines !!!! Salute fam
The engine break makes a huge difference between a 4T vs a 2T. Would love to see a comparison between a PRO with a 500cc 2T vs a PRO with a 450 4T. Then we can compare because if you're just starting to ride a 500cc 2T then you're just not used to it. To make things clear we can all agree that riding a 2T is harder than riding a 4T, I own both. Either way great video!
Would be nice to do lap times on a 450 and then the 500 see what the difference is maybe something for the future
Buddy you made that 500 look like an 85. I want one of these so bad!!!
Could you win the British on that bike kecks🙌
Looked good on that mate 👌🏻
Thanks
What a tune it plays 👍
Wow super saund n1!
