Congratulations. I love the White / Black color scheme that you guys got in Canada. What are the details? Any modifications or are you looking...
Welcome. The nice thing about the 500 is that parts are still fairly easy to get. My vote is to restore it to the original RWB.
You are definitely in good company here. There are still many 500 owners on this forum. I'm glad this 5 year old thread helped you!
No, you're normal. I've currently got 9 bikes total. My 1986 collection took me 10 years to restore and the dirt bikes are constantly torn down...
I barely have enough time at the end of my day to keep up the daily posts ...
I agree with Terc that most people would never notice that it wasn't RWB from the factory. I think it came out great. Now you just need to...
I didn't even know he was sick until I saw it on the news yesterday. They said it was throat cancer. It makes you wonder how he got it.

+1 ... I've currently got 4 VFRs and would be looking for more, but I am truly out of space. Between street and dirt, I've now got 9 bikes. I...
If the R is truly in cosmetically mint condition, then you could let the seller keep the motor and the bike would still be worth far more than...
I lived with mine for 5 years and just replaced it with a Sargent over the winter. The stock seat would start to bother me after 35-40 of minutes...
I just finished reading both Part I & II. They mention a Part III, but didn't notice any link to it. I love what they had to say about the...
Awesome! And it has a link to Part 1 of the story. Thanks for sharing.
It sounds like a good project. Do some research here as the 1st Gen 700 and 750 machines had cam wear issues. You may want to look into this...
TOE - the 450X is my next bike. I almost bought one 2 years ago when we purchased the CRF100. My wife was OK with it, but I was the one who...
No doubt about that!
HONDA = RELIABILITY and LONGEVITY. That is why I am a life-long and brand loyal customer.
Recently, I switched to masoncityhonda.com for all my parts. They discount all OEM equipment 20% and have free shipping. I never had to call...
