SO.. Heres the stats..

1989 CR500r

All orig plastics (some scratchs, no stitches)
New stock bore wiseco piston
New Hot Rods connecting rod & hardware
New Moose Racing crank bearings
New Factory clutch plates and springs
New oil seals and gaskets inside and out.
New and spare spark plugs
New Dunlop Intermediate rear tire
New FMF Gnarly header pipe
New FMF PowerCore silencer
New fork seals (forks rebuilt)
New air purge valves on the forks
New Moose 2 finger easypull clutch lever (not the inline crap)
New Moose shift lever
New 2 finger front brake lever
New grips
New chain slider

The bike has only been run 32:1 mixture since Ive owned it for maximum protection. 93 Octane and Maxima Castor 927 2 stroke oil. Case is also running Synthetic 10w/40.

Turn the gas on, tip the bike to make sure the float bowl is full, 6-8 REAL SLOW prime kicks to fill the cyl.. 1 MAYBE 2 real kicks and she fires after being stone cold for 3 weeks. This bike WILL stand up in 5th gear with a twist of a wrist, and will come up in every gear fast enough to make you shit yourself.. You wouldnt have enough time to pucker your asshole.

I did not race this bike, just did some track rental days with some friends.

Bike is Located in Rochester, NY. Please contact me at jdoty53@yahoo.com

Needs:

Swingarm bearings, which run about $45.
The kick starter spring needs to get wound one turn tighter
One missing bolt for the Silencer (which Ill probably replace anyways)
The front header needs 2 exhaust springs and the lower mount put on (which Ill end up doing its not an issue)

Asking $2300 or trade for a decent newer CRF 250 or KX250F. The bike is worth this all day long.

Here she is..

Yeah Ive come to find out that I can throw a newer 4 stroke 250 around pretty hard. The only 2 strokes Ive ever owned were 500's, so Im use to having all kinds of power..

BUMP!

It's hard to go back to tiddlers after you get used to an open-classer isn't it? I'd be ALL OVER THIS BIKE OF YOURS if I had any spare $$$. My last four dirtbikes were in order: YZ465, YZ465, Husqy xcr430, and then a CR125.....I couldn't take the 125....."whiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnngggggg" to hillclimb??!!! nah, rather go "grrrrrrruuunt" up the same hill(and then sky the crest).
