Re: I think I want a 500 2-stroke!
Yes, cool. But heavy for the power they made. And didn't make much power for the fuel they DRINK.
Ask carnivore, he owned an RD500. Personally I'd get another CR500 and 'motard it. Got some performance to back up the stupidity then.

Yeah. Give me £2k, an SV and a motor and I'll figure it out.

Yeah, and end up with a well peaky, gasket-popping motor with a drinking problem!

You can see that with a 485'd 350LC based thing, with half the weight.

Re: I think I want a 500 2-stroke!
Thats the idea of a 2 stroke isnt it? Peaky mental machine? A 350LC making 120BHP? Dang.
