ROBERTO M 350 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 I slippy has a nice old bike il ask him to put a pic up off it ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andyfr1968 772 Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Me and a mate made a CR500 erm, super moto a few years back. What a totaly bad idea!! Such a short useable rev range and so little revs to play with, you just can't gear those old big two strokes for the road.... The more modern 250 strokers and 400 ditch pumps are much better.
