Possible motard?

Service Honda Home of the CR500AF

How do you think one of these would be as a motard? I love the big bore 2 strokes. Would it seem like too much?

But those are sweet dirt bikes. Rode one of them at the Glamis dunes ... roll up to the bottom of the big hill in 3rd, twist the throttle and up you go

In the past they would build to suit ... but it is all top of the line

Call and ask about motarding, I know they have done it. Or get the 4-stroke version

You'd put more than an eye out motarding that.

This is the version I like. Unfortunately it comes with a $16.5K price tag.

Re: Possible motard?

They will custom build them with just about anything you want done. Any sort of powder coating. Whatever color, rims, tires, suspension. It could come as a fully kitted motard straight from the "factory." It only takes money.

Perfect, only one tiny gating item and you're good to go

Thats a good way to blow up a 2 stroke, there oil comes with the gas closed carb and still High RPMs bad things happen.


A friend of mine had one that he was tarding when I first started he has a 450 now.

For the record I think ATK still makes a 680 2 stroke. Brrrrrap!
