I have 2.

The first was selling my CR500 AF last fall. I currently remedying that.



The second? Not taking a 5' 10" Swedish ski racer up on her offer to not fly back to the US and come to Sweden for the summer. Fail.

For Sale / WTB: 2002-3-4 cr250 roller

Roller = motor not needed.

Yup, I'm looking for a home for a '90 CR500 motor as after selling my 500AF I seem to be suffering AF separation anxiety. Badly.

I'm located in VT so if you have/run across anything in the North east may be interested.

General Two Stroke Talk / Who's is racing a late model 2T in 2010?

« on: December 15, 2009, 08:21:55 PM »

What's late model you ask.....how bout we consider anything after 2000 [or close to it] for the sake of this thread. Perhaps someone else could start a "vintage" race thread?

What form of racing is it?

And why a 2T?

I'm planning on racing MX for the first time in 18 years [NESC] on a CR500 conversion.

I've never even ridden a modern 4T and never considered buying one. I'm a gas and go guy so I wasn't into the more expensive/complex 4T motors so that ruled out used ones also.

Started my "come back" on an 03 YZ250 that was probably fast enough for my 52 year old body/skills  but I got caught up in the CR500 thing and as I was planning a conversion, I found a killer deal on a conversion so I bought it.

It's in an 05 CRF so my motor isn't "current" just the rest of the bike.
