Got stupid and traded it or a CR500 ... scared the crap outta me and was the last dirt bike I owned after a year of white knuckles rofl


Those 3 bikes proved to me that if you want power ... enjoy the smell of 2 stroke in the morning grin


I had a stable of hot 2 stroke bikes when I was young.
'77 YamahaYZ 125, '78 Suzuki RM 250, '79 Honda CR 250, '80 Suzuki RM 250, '82 KTM 495, '85 Honda CR 500.
I carry around 14 screws, two ten inch stainless steel plates and a bone graft out of my hip as an ever lasting reminder of what a rush those bikes were.
To me Motocross has never been the same since the 4 strokes took over.
