    Crazy!
    There are only three types of people in this world. Those that can count, and those that can't!

    Bloke that used to work on our farm had one of the older CR500s which had even more go than the last ones, thing was bloody nuts! Took it for a blat down the road and it was interesting trying to keep the front wheel on the ground through all the gears, I have been on bikes since I could walk, rode motocross competitively during my teens, and still ride trail rides etc to this day, so I wouldn't call myself an amateur but that bike was just stupid crazy!

    Almost the same with the '96 KX500 I had. The power valves calmed it compared to the Honda CR500 thankfully.
