Honda CR500R

I bought this bike in 1995, after being left a few bob by my lovely Gran' who sadly died in 94 (will always love her to bits for helping me out ) But I'm sure she'd be turning in her grave if she knew half of what I'd spent her hard earned cash on ! One of those things I know she hated most would have been the CR 500 ! . Well ... you know what it's like , you've always wanted something, now you have the cash......... I wasn't going to invest it ...
...and a good mate of mine, had always wanted something mad and powerful , off road, having dabbled a bit in the past with moto x bikes. So off we went to see Mr Andy Taylor ( of P.R. Taylor of Calne Wilts,) An extremely experienced bike rider ,on and off road , ( sadly killed a couple of years later , by a volvo driver towing a horse box ).

Review of Honda CR500R

Well, where do I start. This bike is not for the fainthearted! Drop the clutch in at 4th gear and it still boasts enough power to get a wheelie going! I paid £3400 for my bike back in 2005, and since then the bike has had no problems whatsoever. The only things being the chain and the sprockets that wore abit due to this bikes power. This bike is rather heavy, and feels heavy when ridden. It is also very loud, so not for beginners. The engine ...
...maintainance, which is easily done. I would recommend this bike to many people, however, if your under 6'0 in height, you may struggle with this bike. It's meant for 6'0 and over to be perfect. Also, do not buy this as a first bike, get a 125cc and then work your way up the chain of power. Honestly, this bike is worth every penny. A must buy! ...
