Most guys his age are at the lake with their nice boats, trolling around hoping a 20 yr old will show a little nip. This guys in his laboratory building monsters...Much Respect, Sir.
I started to watch this on my phone ,, but quickly turned it off and switched to my tablet, your attention to detail and passion in your work deserved a watch on a big screen, really took me back to my racing days great job mate.
I am such a fan of your work. Attention to detail and your knowledge of the machines is so impressive. Being a big fan of the 80's Hondas, this bike makes me drool. Once again, great work!
My first 500 off the show room floor. So fast it took a year before I was able to control that bike without fear . Now I wish I had one great job on that bike
Amazing work - It's videos like these that inspire. My son watches this and wants to rebuild motorcycles. Quality time with him in the garage = priceless.
im rebuilding a 90 cr250 and the way you beautified every single last part just blew me and my buddys brains right now. that thing is gorgeous and you are a master!
This has to be one of the best rebuilds in stock condition I’ve seen. Very impressive, I’d love to find a 94 KX 125 like I had back in the day and rebuild it
I love your WORK!! Don't feel like you have to shorten your videos! I like the detail of watching you rebuild your bikes. I will sit and watch hours of your work! I would rather see more of your work posted a little each time. You do such a great job! Nevertheless, thanks for posting! Blessings!
Man I got to say you did an awesome job restoring that 89 CR500 what an absolute Widow Maker of a bike. I owned an 85 CR500 and I wish I would have never gotten rid of it I now own an 89 CR250 which I absolutely love looking forward to your next videos
Incredibly entertaining *and* inspirational! I have a '87 CR500R that I've owned since '89 that needs restoration. You've given me a perfect path try to follow. Thank you!
I could see these selling for $50K when us Gen Xer's start getting into retirement. What a masterpiece, hats off to your attention to detail and hard work.
That's a real man.......kicking a CR500 with a New Balance! I learned to ride on a 1983 CR480 at age 14. My first brand new bike was a 1988 YZ250. Well done resto sir. Thanks for bringing back memories.
Try cleaning up the plastic, then heat it up, it will shine like new... frkn awesome job bud, I love doing ground up testis on old dirt bikes, it's therapeutic.
Still have my 85. Wanted the 84, but my dad always said never buy 1st year and glad I didn't. Wicked fast went from the 250r to this, and it scared the crap out of me. Took a few months to get used to. These days, I ride a crf450l and watch my grandsons race, the r versions. But I definitely prefer my Goldwing these days. Amazing work!!!!
I just had to see the shots where you’re wearing a back brace to know how much work and how many countless hours you spent on your feet for this restoration. The finished product is amazing and flawless in every metric . The passion and meticulous attention you gave to this project paid off and inspires those of us out here who love to get into projects such as these . Keep up the great work ! Thank you and don’t shorten the videos they’re better when they run full length!
@@TNTMOTO I did. Love what you’ve done there. Glad you still have it man. Memories of back in the day. Looking forward to the new builds. You need to upload more for sure
I love your work on the cr 500 honda well done and I like watching you on all your bikes that you work on .iam gerard fields from Ireland 🇮🇪 well done .
I had one of these I raced it every weekend for 2 years. I had it all done up full national team prep, even a lightened and re balanced crank It was my love and my 94 Cr 500 too. Those were the best bikes I ever owned.
Great restoration, bike looks like it just left the showroom. Done this to many bikes over the years and the satisfaction from it is unequalled, off roaders and road bikes.
Brilliant work, and love the simple and straightforward video format. Would also be keen to see a shop walkthrough sometime if you haven’t done one yet. Keep up the excellent mechanic and video work!
Stunning build , I used to ride these bikes quite a lot, whoever buys this one is very very lucky whatever the price , it’s like riding a new bike as far as I can see ,and that pipe is too die for, congratulations amazing job 🇬🇧🍀👍🙏
I don’t say this often, but when I do, I mean it, you, sir are a true craftsman and the effort you put into this 500r build, tells me that you must’ve had one long ago My hats off to you.
Great video!!, I watched it two times!!!, I can not wait for the cr250 builds to Start!, have two 82's, a 87,92,&a 94, all cr250's, also my pride and joy a 81yz465, all are fun to ride, just not enough time in day, like it was in the old days for me, in the late70's,80's & 90's, I rode some thing two wheels every day!, Thanks again for bringing us along in your day with all your builds, I have learned so much from you!!!, Charlie in Pensacola, Fl,.
Awesome I love it that’s the bike I used to race with back in 80s till early 90s in Europe thanks for the video unforgettable memories I can still smell that mix👍
That was a pretty nice biuld. It looks just as good as it did when it rolled out of the factory. We need to keep these monsters alive before they are forgotten
That is so cool! My buddy bought his 85 CR500 brand new and I was always jealous of how he would talk about the unboxing and setup he and his dad did. I’m sure it looked just like yours after he was done. My 86 was used when I bought it. We had great times on those machines!
Excellent work! I had a 1990 CR500 back in 93, but I didn't have enough experience to make the most of its arm stretching power. This bike looks better than new. Looking forward to those CR250 builds.
What a iconic bike I call a stump puller, first and last one I rode was a brand new 92 cr 500 what a beast a bike that separates the men from the boys 💪
Great to see you back i was wondering where you'd got to. stunning job on the 500 i love the fact that you do a true restoration and make the bikes as oem as possible, it erks me how people say "restoration" and the finished product looks nothing like original. you're bikes are near enough to museum quality, looking forward to the two up 250s. Thanks for posting!!
You sir have an incredible talent, at the finish of this build my heart was pounding out of my chest. The bike is absolutely beautiful and wish I was the lucy one to have had a chance to buy it, well done! Oh, and I am a new subscriber. 👍
Absolutely stunning restoration. I hope one day i can be as good as you at doing this with clapped out bike. Your work is flawless. Looking forward to the 2 cr250 builds.
Good lord this is a sweet build. First time on your channel and I’m impressed. 89 CRs are some of the best looking bikes ever made to this day. Someday I hope to have an 89. Forgot to mention how much dedication you have. So much hand sanding!
Just came across your channel and thought I’d say hello.you restore bikes how they should be restored and do amazing work.I’ve always been a fan of the older bikes especially the big bores.currently seeking a bike I had in high school,84 xr 500.currently I have an 03 kx 500 that I have restored with a few minor aftermarket parts and would love to find a 95 cr 500 to complete my collection.keep up the good work and videos 🤘🏻
Just sold my 84 XR500 a few months back. I had not ridden it in a year and needed something else more at this time. I will do an XR on the channel one day.
Most guys his age are at the lake with their nice boats, trolling around hoping a 20 yr old will show a little nip. This guys in his laboratory building monsters...Much Respect, Sir.
When im that age, i hope to be able to buy 20 year old nip... and a cr500... fingers crossed 🤞
Sexist gits!
One of the best looking dirt bikes ever made, even to this day.
Building two 89 250's now.
i’m inclined to agree with you
I agree
I had a CR 500. That bike demands respect....
I started to watch this on my phone ,, but quickly turned it off and switched to my tablet, your attention to detail and passion in your work deserved a watch on a big screen, really took me back to my racing days great job mate.

This has to be one of the best rebuilds in stock condition I’ve seen. Very impressive, I’d love to find a 94 KX 125 like I had back in the day and rebuild it
Excellent work! Beautyful bike, I could have it in the living room instead of the garage
Makes me miss mine. I was a skinny little 16 year old kid back in 1990 when I had mine and that bike scared me to death every time I straddled it.
I love your WORK!! Don't feel like you have to shorten your videos! I like the detail of watching you rebuild your bikes. I will sit and watch hours of your work! I would rather see more of your work posted a little each time. You do such a great job! Nevertheless, thanks for posting! Blessings!

Have always loved the straight two tone CRs they were ahead of their time.
Absolutely amazing, what a beauty ❤️💪💪🏁🏁

Thank you
You sir, deserve a medal! Outstanding restoration, this is on the next level, this is an art..respect!
Thank you
89 is my favorite year for those monsters. We get a lot of resto work in my OHV shop, the 80s CRs, KXs, and RMs are my favorites. Great vid!
This takes me back to younger days. Amazing build. I can smell that bike just by seeing it.
this guy put in so much work holy crap it looks amazing good job! the attention to detail is insane!

Thankyou
I second that for sure, looks better than when it was bought brand new!

I raced both a 1983 and a 1986. I know those bike very well. You do great work!
Thank you for doing this build and recording it. Great job!
I used to own an 87 CR-500. Love the sounds and smells of the two strokes.
@bradrook3919 currently doing a 1987 CR500
Great Build! I had one of these 89s back in the day. Very fun bike and the best of the 3 CR500s i had. Forgot how much they vibrate seeing it running.
She sounds crispy ❤!!! As good as the day it rolled out the factory, probably better!
Well done, My friend had a 1988 Cr500 he let me ride bring's back memorie's. The 1988 had old style fork's, not inverted that started in your 1989.
I worked at ladish in Wisconsin and there is a guy there that looks like he could be your brother! He's a intelligent man like you
Thank you for watching and the comment
Excellent work! I had a 1990 CR500 back in 93, but I didn't have enough experience to make the most of its arm stretching power. This bike looks better than new. Looking forward to those CR250 builds.

I can’t believe all the hard work and effort you put into this bike, your skill is amazing. All your projects turn out amazing
Thank you very much for watching and commenting.
KX 500 owner. Takes balls to start with tennis shoes on and funny to see how much these big bore two strokes vibrate. Beautiful bike.
Thankyou for watching.
What a iconic bike I call a stump puller, first and last one I rode was a brand new 92 cr 500 what a beast a bike that separates the men from the boys 💪
I loved it…I had a 1985 and it would make you cry with Joy
Now, that is what I call a restoration. It still looks as original as it can be. One detail is by not changing the rims to black. Nice work sir.
Thankyou
I loved my 86. Looked clean and straight.
I loved this.... I had the 89 CR500R. Mine was restored as well. I will ad a pic if I can.
That was a beast back in the day! I remember them well.. Great work!
CR500's only kick first time when they are perfect
From Mauritius Island...... Amazing share, with new tips. Congrats man and thank you😎

The 89 cr250 is my favorite bike of all time. My first real dirt bike was the 89 cr125, then moved up to the 89 cr250
Great build what a beast I remember these bikes when I was in my teens what a machine thanks for your video great work and attention to detail.

The fork guards and tank are no longer available in oem form.
Really a marvellous toy, great work 👌
Unbelievable!!
You are an artist!!
This was a seriously cool restoration job! And props for kicking that thing in sneakers!
Compression release button helps a lot.
