    All the people telling you to pull the throttle stop, and quit babying it have probably never rode a cr500. Awesome video man, you've earned a subscriber.

    great video. used to ride my 85' cr 500 in the dunes in Oregon. that soft shit will wear you out in a hurry! and no you don't have to ride a cr 500 on the powerband the whole time to have a good time.

    im 18, 5"7, and 120 lbs. I ride a 01 cr250r and damn do i love it. It doesnt matter how big you are. Just remember that you dont have to use all of the throttle! the bigger the bike the better! It will take some getting used to but trust me you wont have any more of a hard time as long as you get enough seat time in it and go a little harder at a time. I used to ride my dads 250 when i was 6 years old. like i said just take it easy and you can handle ANY bike.

    LEGSAVER TIPS FOR CR500! (and ego saver)
    Before you ever try kicking it, turn the petcock on, tip the bike over to the left side a ways until you see gas coming out the vents to get gas in the float bowl and to the jets. Then give it 6-8 slow turn overs to prime gas into the crankcase, ports, and chamber. Then get the motor to near tdc (the hardest spot on the Kickstarter, when the motor has the most compression) then ratchet the Kickstarter up to the last kick and give it one healthy kick all the way through to the foot peg.

    clean sounding CR.....here's a tip, after owning 3 i learned to drag my rear brake while gassing it at the same time in 5th instead of chopping the throttle in sand, this reduces head shake when slowing, sounds crazy to the uninformed but works....i used to ride Glamis 20 years ago....keep roosting ;)

    Looks like a blast. We only have woods here in Florida. My CR500 eats back tires like candy.

  • @megavolt08
    @megavolt08 7 років тому +1

    I had the pleasure of riding a 1986 CR500 in Glamis a couple times. Let me tell you there is nothing like the rush of triple digits on a dirt bike in the dunes. We called it the Dreadnought. Because you Dread not having to start the thing.

  • @ragnarokxx3
    @ragnarokxx3 12 років тому

    Itakeyouthere, I have also cold seized a bike from taking off like that.. my banshee I never knew till my dads friend told me. I stopped doing it and I'm good now, it has been four years and nothing bad had happened yet so I believe him. By the way nice cr500

  • @naturaltg

    I hope I get to ride one of these bikes one day... Look so powerful for a 2-stroke!

  • @irideyamaha94
    @irideyamaha94 12 років тому

    i went for my first time just over new years, its alot of fun but can get boring really fast if you are with a slow group. and if it rains then its definately fun because the bike just sticks no matter how leaned over you are (long as your on the pipe)

  • @IBcnz
    @IBcnz 12 років тому

    yes, you need a lot or low down power for sand, 2 stokes dont have this so they keep their revs up to keep the bike from getting stuck

  • @Znitso

  • @Stacker227
    @Stacker227 11 років тому

    Awesome bike man those CR500's are blazing fast. People think that 125's are so fast until they hear about the CR500 and then people are like "Holy crap man CR500's don't exist" but they do...again awesome bike im looking forward to getting one when i turn 18 from 3 years from now to fix up as a resto bike.

    Didn't even sound like you hit the power band, but I bet that's prolly just the mic. Looks really fun, I'd love to go there some time.

  • @SoCalWildman
    @SoCalWildman 12 років тому

    Your pace is fine. I've ended up in the hospital twice from "opening er up". I highly recommend riding well within your limits and not the limits of the 500.

  • @Mxrider9637
    @Mxrider9637 12 років тому

    He is right though its not all about the power and how big your bike is its all about your riding experience, how long you have been riding, and most important your riding skills.

  • @slyrbaby
    @slyrbaby 12 років тому

    Well it seems nice that one doesn't have to worry about hitting a tree the whole time compared to woods riding. Messing up in the woods means possibly hitting a tree or going off a cliff.
    In the dunes it seems there's a higher chance of colliding with someone else than running into something.

  • @77ericwashere
    @77ericwashere 12 років тому

    Haha u r right better to b safe than sorry. The cr needs a freshing up ?? It sounds good, i just love to hear the pipe on a 500 explode with power!!!

  • @richardcaballero681
    @richardcaballero681 11 років тому +16

    i ride a yz 250 two stroke, cant even imagine riding something thats twice the power of my bike, my bike is swirly enough as it is lol.

    • @rowdyrob06
      @rowdyrob06 10 років тому +1

      Haha same here. I've got a buddy that rides a CR500 and he pulls power wheelies all the way up Olds! I'll stick to my yz 250 for awhile as well.

    • @banshee01ful
      @banshee01ful 10 років тому +10

      Your YZ 250 has 50 HP. The CR 500 has 68 HP. It is all about the torque

    • @richardcaballero681
      @richardcaballero681 10 років тому

      banshee01ful I've actually managed to ride a kx500 2 weeks ago and i definitely agree about you saying the torque on those things.. i literally had to pin the throttle haha

    • @itakeyouthere
      @itakeyouthere  9 років тому +4

      If u ride a 250 two stroke u can ride a 500 no problem. The bike just has a little extra lol

    5th gear on a 500 is stupid fast i personally don't own one but ive ridden my grandfathers 89 cr 500 and i got 4th and that was fast enough. i ride cr 250 and 5th gear on that bike is wild, 5th on a 500 is something people don't talk about for a reason respect the bike before she eats you up and spits you out. respect to all the 500 riders. looking to take over my grandfathers 500. see you on the riders forms take care be safe and what ever you do don't whiskey throttle

    Looks good man. I ride a kx450f, and a CR500AF. People that are talking shit have no idea how much power that really is. 500 is like a 900 4 stroke. Just insane. Do have to get your 5th gear fixed though! lol

  • @chrisdrost850

    2-strokes need a certain pipe tuning for each adjustment. What the 4-strokes offer, a 2-stroke can be made to have lots of top end, lots of mid, or lots of low end.
    If a 4-stroke guy says my crf goes faster, a 2-stroke can always be made faster but then it'll lack the low end and be peakier :D

    can someone who has alot of experience at glamis (and similar) tell me:
    what is the system that keeps people running into each other?
    i have seen many videos and keep wondering how its done.
    do you use spotters, or just well established routes?

  • @TonaldDrump686
    @TonaldDrump686 12 років тому

    I have a 97 CR500. It can be a prick to start. Now that the decompression grooves are gone It prefers a small quantity of flesh on the footpeg and a deep kick.

  • @DBD801
    @DBD801 12 років тому

    it really dosnt matter how old, tall, or how much you weigh, its really about experience, but me personally i would go with the 250 4 stroke i got my 05 kx250f when i was 14 and im 17 now and i love it to death, my friend recently bought a cr125 and he out grew it in 2 years it was to slow for him i would jump straight into a 250, but be careful and get to know the bike before you go crazy

  • @chrisxadfx9464
    @chrisxadfx9464 11 років тому

    so you would suggest at least a 250? jus worried if i wont touch the ground on a 250 since im like 5'4'' or 5'5''

    It's harder to control in general. I'm not sure if you're trying to disagree with me or what, but it takes talent. You cant just hop on a dirtbike and expect not to crash or go over the bars the first time in the dunes.. Or even if you're experienced you're still guaranteed to go over the bars every once in a while. That was the point. And being on a quad is easy, you just have to look out for idiots in the desert.
