Those bikes still look awesome 34 years later.And they go like a cut cat.
Gotta ❤️ this shit..
@@justinblanton6882no lie, damn bikes are awesome by ANY standard!
Finally somebody who rides it like it's stolen! I've searched for a while now on UA-cam all of them carefully riding it around the track - understandable:))
Well go on a deep dive on this channel! Lots of 500 content! Thanks for the comment 🤙🏽
massive respect to you whilst not letting go of the power band,it takes balls on a 500 to do that,respect from the uk from an oldschool rider from the 90,s
Check out more of my 500 content on my channel!
@@weekendwarriorsmx i will do
Agree 100% it takes a lot of balls to ride the cr500 to it's full potential. The Powerband on it is unbelievable. First time I rode one was my last. Cleanup on aisle 1 we have a code brown!
How else would you ride a 2 stroke?
@@jasonbachelor604 precisely grip and rip
Great year89. Nasty bike
Awesome CR500! I have a 1990 CR500. Long live the 2-stroke!🤟🏻
2 stroke for life
How dare you 😂 #greta
@@JDMEGO00SIR 🤣
I can hear a liberal saying right this moment…But what about our planet?
Как дела обстоят с запчастями, их ещё можно где нибудь заказать?
I was raised on a 2 stroke. Miss that sound, that powerband, mixing my gas... the good ol days
And the Two Stoke Smell !!!
More 500 content on this channel!
Best sounding idle I have heard in years!!!!
Heck yeah!!! Killer machine, killer video. And no annoying music throughout the vid. You let the 2-banger supply the music. And the riding was off the chain. Love it. Keep it up!!!
No doubt! Excellent riding, enjoying the big Honda’s power. It’s crispy too💪😁
Friggin’ money…awesome rider…no number plates…mike drop at the end…2stroke money! Nice work!
Every man should have one.
89 one of the most perfect looking bikes ever made. I’ll get one some day.
Agreed and hope to one day own one this nice as well
can't be that expensive being a 1989
@@m91473 id just like an 89. Doesnt need to be a 500. But 500s are going for a grip right now. Minimum 4k.
@@someoneyouknow96 sheesh
@Devin Reavis You need to learn reading comprehension man. You sound like a dee dee dee.
Ich ɓewundere die Fahrer immer auf tiefste, das sind wahre Motorrad Künstler!
I love the sound of the CR two stroke.
They do have such a nice crispy sound! Great bikes
Ah the late 80's pinnacle of beautiful design and power&torque to go with. Can't get any better and it didn't.
88 and 89 are the best looking years for Honda imo. I absolutely love these older Hondas!!!!
What a hell of a Ryder WOW 😮
I love you guys, and ladies. Who ever it is at the team who made this masterpiece video. Extra super turbo charged Buddha thanks, for not putting any music over the the real music of the engine. 100% Sound orgasm!!! It's made my day!!! Thanks again!!! 🙏
😂that’s some funny shit right there! I’m thinking you liked it…lol
My dream bike! Such a beautiful bike I'm jealous for sure. They're getting harder and harder to find. In my opinion the best of the cr bikes was the 1989. I wish they still made race bikes like these. The new ones I can't even get with what the industry has done to the plastics design and don't get me going about how they need to bring back the entire 2 stroke line up. Other than the 89 cr bikes the 90's 2 strokes are my favorite.
Yep…! You are not alone in your thinking. I know it’s probably my age (52.5yrs old), but the newer stuff has zero pull on me. I’ve plenty of late ‘80s 2-strokes & still ride REGULARLY! Been riding 2-stroke MX bikes since 1982 when I got my 1979 KX80A. I rode just yesterday my 1996 CR250R & the 1998 YZ250 (both deeply modified). Riding still gives me the youthful fun & enjoyment as it always has! Love my 1988 KX500 the most though💪😁much agreed with you…the whole plastics thing?! Just weird looking to me.
I love this bike
That's a nice old girl. Got an '01 in my shed. Zero hours. Keep up the good work my friends
Oh man what a gem! Don’t sell it
Badass Bike! I’ve been planning to get an old CR 250 but after watching your CR 500 videos I think I’m gonna have to go all the way and get a 500 lol
You should!
I had a Marine Corps buddy who had a new '89 CR500 back then. He didn't believe in suspension preload (thought it was a waste of travel) and dialed all of it out of his shock. He was essentially riding a pogo stick.
I was behind him on my XR600R when he hit a pebble. What unfolded next looked like something out of a Bugs Bunny cartoon. He turned into a moving dust cloud with an arm, a leg, a wheel, occasionally popping out of said dust cloud. It was hilarious!
He became a believer in preload. It renewed my faith as well.
Beautiful bike...the sound and smell I want to wake up to every morning. 2 stroke 4 life! 💯
Awesome... Totally awesome!
Love the cr500 and cool stuff how you hold it wide open in the whoops with the front wheel off the ground, yee ha dude 🏍️👍😊
That's great and what an awesome backdrop.
That was my bike when I attended CU Boulder in 1988-1991. I used to take it out by myself off highway 36 and literally scare the shit out myself and while enjoying the adrenaline rush of surviving. A rocket ship beast.
Very nice riding. Just finished my full 89 CR500 restore.
Hv
that’s a lot of bike folks. i had RM 500 in 1983. sure wish i held on to it.
Buen piloto y buena maquina japonesa ...los dos tiempos suenan muy bonitas mejores ..
Good to see one of these beasts again… Back in the day (around 1991/92 we had a CR500 and a CR125. Both amazing and great fun!
Thats the best looking, sounding and ridden 500 ive ever seen 😎
That’s 1 Gorgeous Trench Digger………..
It sounded really healthy and you rode it like you stole it kudos 👍👍👍
Beautiful
Stunning bike
Good run good biles 😊🎉❤
I wouldn't change a thing on that bike she really is perfect!
Used to race the cr500 and it was amazing!
Old School Flexin on the god father of 2 strokes 💪
I’m not a fan of 2 strokes, but old MX bikes like the CR500 have a special place in my heart
Ont voit les professionnels de becane. 👍😉
80s-90s cr500 is my all time dream bike. Full stop.
My dream bike 😥😀 one day one day a 89 cr 500 awsomeness right here
1989 and better than many of new bikes
Haha! Gets more chicks too
Beautiful bike! Great riding!
Thank you! Work of art!
Lots of great memories at this track.
Perfect 2stroke 500 bike 👌😳
Bad Ass Guys....I had a 1989 CR80R when I was a kid back in the early 90's.
Awesome bike , I've got an 87 cr 500 I've been slowly restoring for a few years should be as tidy I hope ...I'm old an bought up on 2 strokes , any old skool 2 stroke big bore rider will say "" frankly my dear ; I don't give a damn if your new bike handles better...don't care in the slightest , not interested...those big bore 2 strokes that torque , smell and noise is highly addictive...
The cr500r is the greatest motocross bike all time
BEAST
That was an awesome video, Ty bro 👍
Vibration is an understatement on these beasts
True, but regular checking & general maintenance…rewards you with great times & much fun! There’s nothing like the 2-stroke 500’s. So much fun to ride😁
Road it like a beast!!!
Totally beautiful baddass bike!!!
And you rode it excellent
Thank you!
Fantastic bike and a cool rider respect
CR 500..the best Moto Cross bike ever.
Dream bike .
most bad ass bike ever
What an amazing machine in capable hands! Damn
That was almost the same bike that Robbie knievel was riding at ceasars palace in Las Vegas. Rest in peace robbie knievel. Hopefully the legacy will live on. The cr500 is a beast.
At one point Robbie's Surgeon owned the Caesars Palace jump bike. Would be interesting to know how many Cr 500's Robbie owned? I estimate 6 to 7. He never was sponsored by Honda, the reason the Honda graphics were removed. Most of the jumps he did in the early 90's were on 91 Cr's with white fenders, side covers and number plates.
I had an '84 that I restored. Last of the air hammers. Fun bike.
Love it❤ Old school Bad Boys Toys😊😊😊😊
❤What a clear Sound. 😮
Nice vid, nice sounds!
Looks like fun 🤴 wicked bike!
Had an '89 CR 125 and loved that bike. Best looking year IMO.
I had the same bike, wish I had never sold it!
No real change to that bike for it's 13 years of production, only slight suspension tweaks valving etc and graphics/livery....Legend!
nice bit of riding keep it up
Sexiest dirt bike still till this day. Something about the 89 CR500. A mate had one when i was younger & he let me ride it out the river flats one day. That was 27 years ago & i'm still shaking😂😂
Not even hitting the powerband NICE. (Some nuts, I'll say that) .
Una maravilla de máquina japonesa....
Absolutely beautiful bike and you did a fantastic rip.
It won't be beautiful for long if he's riding like that in a place like that.. Normal people don't thrash bikes like that
Yep! He rode the crap outta that CR! Great job man💪excellent riding!
Still looks Good and fast for 30+ yrs old, Great riding also
There was a comparrison video between two strokes and four stroke mx bikes, the two strokes were quicker.
The ending of the video was perfect!!!
It’s the little details 🫡
I had a 1989 CR250 and a 1995 CR500 👌
I used to own a 1989 CR250 in 1992 lovely bike but the Problem was the Power Valve used to Clog up over time!
That bike sounds absolutely ludicrous 😂. Props my guy
Nice looking CR
やっぱ2st最強やな
復活してほしいわ
Insanity pure
Beautiful! Sounds so good. Best looking year in my opinion. Blood red frame. I just finished restoring one. Video on my channel. 😎💪
Nice video on a monster dirt bike.
Thank you so much. Hope you check more of my content on these bad boys!
Awesome
has to be the mintist cr500 ive ever seen
Completely Bad Ass!
Only set back is they were so soft hard to get it I line when she was loaded im 52 and this brings me back. Did you see the rear fender on start up every time that piston fired it would flex some serious nuts
Very sick!
🙌🏼
Stupid fast 🔥
fr, this is extremely perfect. jesus christ.
Conozco y me gustan como suenan los motores 2 tiempos pero el del CR500 da miedo.🔥
A wing ding ding ding. Nyuuiuuuk!
Love!
Best looking year for Honda.
I had a '91 and she was/is a ripper, awesome duner.
From the factory, the '89 suspension was nightmare fuel. The suspension components ate themselves and would gall. A suspension upgrade is pretty much mandatory. It makes the difference between enjoying a ride and surviving a ride.
Very well put. If you watch the other videos on the other 89 on my channel you can see the difference.
@@weekendwarriorsmx Even though they put good forks on it in '96, I still had mine revalved and resprung (Gold Valve and heaviest springs). Best investment aside from my oversize front brake.
Would like to get an Ohlins shock on it eventually.
The forks were trapping oil and air with the cones at the top of the forks. This created a mid stroke harshness. Showa also used a little more low speed compression which made suspension feel a little harsher. I was one of those test rides for Showa in 89. I got to try out many different top cones with different shapes holes in an 89 500. I didn’t think the rear was bad. Ever couple of weeks I would get a new box from Sudco, the American arm of Showa with a note from Jake Thompson. The 89 was a lot of fun to ride when the forks were fixed.
Actually my 89 suspension isn’t bad compared to my 2001. And compared to what the 88 had it was a step forward for sure.
Nice riding
The beast! 500cc 2 stroke! In 2023 Still so damned sexy. I'll take a CR250 please😍
