Honda CR500's - The Low Down

first pic bike pulls away wheel just lifting, second pic bike 90% wheely, third guy on deck on @rse, bike on deck

Beleive it or not but it is almost impossible to pull away without the front coming up, too little revs and they cough and stall, too many they spit you off, even when theyre just right its on the edge of the powerband, ready to spit you off. I try to pull away on loose ground, that way the wheel spins and gets you moving a bit before the front comes up. I have a set of supermoto wheels, also a different clutch which has a bit more slip than the racing slipper thats in it.

Just to show how bad they are!
