jonathan mackey Oh they did, but they got discontinued just like cr 500. I know first bike for a fact is a kx 500, the one at 1:11 may just be a newer version.
This is fucking AMAZING!! Nothing could beat it, not even the inline-4 bikes could hang.. mind blowing! That CR500 weighs about 230 pounds with a tuned engine probably putting out 70hp. Those other bikes weigh about 350-400 pounds with those big inline 4's and have about 150hp. It shows that brawn doesnt always win, GO HONDA!
I just bought a YZ250 yesterday for trails. Rode the thing today and I love the thing. Not to mention it was my first time every riding a 2 stroke. Popping wheelies in 3rd with just throttle. If you go fast enough the smoke should not be an issue. ;)
cr is the shit...hope they developed this engine soon like e-tec...4-stroke is for boyz ! i have a 190bhp suzuki grxr 1000r streetfighter but i like the raw of a 2 -stroke 500 ! snowmobile engines is on a track with the 2.stroke..why not the bikes ?
i will agree with you there, the best hill climb bikes i usually see are 4 strokes and the baddest ive ever seen was harold waddell on a gsz-r. 2 strokes will always own freestyle but like tom said, hillclimbing, i think is better reserved for bikes with a shit ton of low end. i ride 2 strokers by the way
lt290r i go up hills all day long. i think its just what the rider prefers because some 4 stroke bikes do go faster than 2 stroke bikes and some 2 stroke bikes have crazy bottom end .
Yes. From the servicehonda--com website. They sell all different bikes. You can get a 2012 CR500AF for $11,999. So start saving your pennies. Also ONLY available in the US.
... 95% nitromethane, 3%methanol, 2% Maxima 927 castor....smells as great as it sounds! Vertex piston, t.i.g. welded crankpin, titanium rod, SwainTech ceramic coatings, and oversize cylinder/head studs and nuts keep it all together. Get about 10 runs before a teardown on these 2 strokes....
A 2 stroke will run forever if you mix gas properly, clean the air filter generously, and if you don't race it. Four strokes have more parts than 2 strokes, making them heavier, and harder to maintain. Basically, If you ain't mixing gas, you ain't hauling ass.
Can anybody tell me why the 2 strokes dont have the silencers? Dont they lose torque? Does it increase power? I ride a 1996 cr125 and wonder if i would gain or lose anything from doing that other than making everyone deaf😂
No, put in 2nd, leave in 2nd. The hill is a whole lot steeper than the camera angle shows, an upshift would bog the engine down so badly they'd end up running a 10:00 or more...
How about when he is taking off he is rideing the clutch duh if he would just dump the clutch would just spin like crazy or flip over and yes they will still flip over with a longer swing arm period.
i'v always heard 2 stroke brake down a lot easier and your more likely to fix them a lot more then a 4 stroke now i myself never owned one so i really can't say but my dad has and my friends have them too and they work on there bikes way more then i work on mine and cost wise parts are about the same and i know this for a fact because i live right next to a honda store.
A 500CC 2 Stroke VS A 250CC can't be classified as "almost the same". Yes it is more about luck and which path the rider takes, but the bike also has a big part in the speed department.
any hillclimb that is strictly on time, and the winner and 2nd place are within a couple tenths of a second.... is not a hillclimb...... This is just lame.
Yeah definitely looks like they are climbing a hill.Theres a hill with dudes on bikes... they are definitely riding motorcycles up said hill.Any one else feel like that describes a hill climb?
@xXDropD34DXx I didn't know there was a KX450R. I know of a KX450F though... and you kind of got things backwards assuming you were referring to the KX450F, I have talked to many riders who ride 450's and they simply will not ride a 500R because of the power. The 450 is a better track bike, but only because the last year for a 500 was 04 and many improvements have been made since then. Of course, if you can afford a Service Honda CR500, you'll beat the 450 everywhere. 450's are ok.
The only downfall is the smell of the exhaust. If you watch other videos of these bikes racing some people will be fanning the rider as he revs up the bike at the like. The fumes are obnoxious and I think they can harm you pretty good too.
its all rider that guy was a good hill climer he kept the tire in the ground as much as he could. the other bikes go so fast you end up jumpin up the hill lol
I'm going to point something out right fast. Put any pro rider on a PW50 and an average/expert rider on a CR500. Sorry, but the average dude would win. Your name is true and that's why I'm not bashing too hard. Not to mention I just bought myself a YZ250 yesterday.
notice the key word in your statement QUAD i'm definitely not saying quads are better in fact i think dirt bikes are a 100% better then a quad but it all depends on how big the engine is who makes it and so on and i'm not saying 2 strokes can't go up hills what so ever i'm just saying there not made for that type of abuse like climbing hills all day 2 strokes are built for speed and 4 strokes are built for torque and power.
Anyone who don't have love for both two and 4 stroke bikes has never spent Quilty time with both two and 4 stroke bikes
Well said buddy
+electrodude5 thanks
I have had 2 bikes right now i have the second one 4t and i like both
I’ve spent a lot of time with both, and I still dislike four strokes
I've had both, the 4 str feel heavy.
Such and incredible bike Honda built. Glad i have one.
The green bike at 1:11. My god. Best sound ever.
I think its a kx 500, I could be wrong though.
I don't think Kawasaki makes 500s with more than one cylinder. But I could be wrong as well.
jonathan mackey Oh they did, but they got discontinued just like cr 500. I know first bike for a fact is a kx 500, the one at 1:11 may just be a newer version.
Bill Hoge Look at the exhaust, It's 4stroke not 2stroke.
Yeah
1:13 sounds like great impact wrench. :)
This is fucking AMAZING!! Nothing could beat it, not even the inline-4 bikes could hang.. mind blowing! That CR500 weighs about 230 pounds with a tuned engine probably putting out 70hp. Those other bikes weigh about 350-400 pounds with those big inline 4's and have about 150hp. It shows that brawn doesnt always win, GO HONDA!
its a 250 frame with 500 motor i have a 07 i absolutely love it
I just bought a YZ250 yesterday for trails. Rode the thing today and I love the thing. Not to mention it was my first time every riding a 2 stroke. Popping wheelies in 3rd with just throttle. If you go fast enough the smoke should not be an issue. ;)
I raced the big bore two strokes many years in motocross pro /am n the power of them is violent .
the riders skills plays the biggest part in a race like this ...
0:57 is my favorite sounding bike
The cr was a beast, no doubt... but that Kawa?! that thing was a monster.
Im glad that everybody else thinks the Kawasaki at 1:13 is the most badass sound on the planet.
It's cool to see all the different variations of bike's
the kx had what looked like a gsxr or bandit motor shoe horned in to it.......nice.
those CRs sound pretty good .
@0.32 love the sound of this bike!
cr is the shit...hope they developed this engine soon like e-tec...4-stroke is for boyz ! i have a 190bhp suzuki grxr 1000r streetfighter but i like the raw of a 2 -stroke 500 ! snowmobile engines is on a track with the 2.stroke..why not the bikes ?
That first harley sounds pretty good lol I still like the 2 strokes haha
0:32 and 1:37 both sound realllly nice!
CR500
Oh my GOD, the sound!!
2 STROKES are the best machines !
1:12 I think this is a Kx 500 With a Kawasaki H2 750 Engine
Ha I think your right.
CJEnduro its a nitro methane bike thats the fuel it runs on
@@stevenmudpit1515 definitely didn't sound like a kx 500
That thing is awesome...and in a 2stroke guy
Why are they wearing roost deflectors when they are the only ones on the hill?
DO THEY HAVE HILL CLIMB EVENTS FOR PIT BIKES,,,,MY SSR 125CC PIT BIKE HILL CLIMBS LIKE A BEAST,,,,
1:14 that kx sounds mint !
i will agree with you there, the best hill climb bikes i usually see are 4 strokes and the baddest ive ever seen was harold waddell on a gsz-r. 2 strokes will always own freestyle but like tom said, hillclimbing, i think is better reserved for bikes with a shit ton of low end. i ride 2 strokers by the way
best sounding bike in the video!
those are some beast looking bikes
Rode a CR500 for years, awesome power under the curve which is why they kick so..... much ass.
Honda Performance First 👍
Guy at the end DEFINITELY races/raced MX
1:13 is the best sounding bike iv ever heard!
Long live the CR500AF
lt290r i go up hills all day long. i think its just what the rider prefers because some 4 stroke bikes do go faster than 2 stroke bikes and some 2 stroke bikes have crazy bottom end .
Yes. From the servicehonda--com website. They sell all different bikes. You can get a 2012 CR500AF for $11,999. So start saving your pennies. Also ONLY available in the US.
how does that run in a bike? there has to be a down fall to it...? what else has to be done to make it run nitro?
notice how the 2 strokes times where a little faster, and they must do a rebuild after every run they do
... 95% nitromethane, 3%methanol, 2% Maxima 927 castor....smells as great as it sounds! Vertex piston, t.i.g. welded crankpin, titanium rod, SwainTech ceramic coatings, and oversize cylinder/head studs and nuts keep it all together. Get about 10 runs before a teardown on these 2 strokes....
Honda CR500 for the win!
Honda CR500 = SHORT WORK; GAME OVER.
@TheHondarider28 they start in 0.5, then 1, then 1.5, then 2 ect until they get to gear 6
3,4 is CR500??
that guy under the time thing takes a drink every time!! lol
How old are these guys because I heard my friends name
ya that last run on the cr500 was amazing. have you ever heard of Ryan Thibault from tiverton, RI? just wondering
@ThisIsMotocross thats what Im saying.. and yeah I think 24tharcher is right, its a 750 triple
A 2 stroke will run forever if you mix gas properly, clean the air filter generously, and if you don't race it. Four strokes have more parts than 2 strokes, making them heavier, and harder to maintain.
Basically, If you ain't mixing gas, you ain't hauling ass.
Why did the second dirt bike (honda) not spin tires when he tok off?
THEY HAD TO USE 1000cc 4 stroke sportsbike motors just to keep up with the mighty CR500.2 stroke for life!
the kawa sounded amazing...
where is the hill ??
@KTMrida4life im pretty sure none of those bikes were a 750 2 stroke. Theres a video of one on here somewheres If you want to see one.
Can anybody tell me why the 2 strokes dont have the silencers? Dont they lose torque? Does it increase power? I ride a 1996 cr125 and wonder if i would gain or lose anything from doing that other than making everyone deaf😂
do they shift on there way up?
No, put in 2nd, leave in 2nd. The hill is a whole lot steeper than the camera angle shows, an upshift would bog the engine down so badly they'd end up running a 10:00 or more...
@joe23ba
It was probably the KX 750 tripple road bike engine.
1:40 Sounds like me after taco night.
awesome vid
How about when he is taking off he is rideing the clutch duh if he would just dump the clutch would just spin like crazy or flip over and yes they will still flip over with a longer swing arm period.
Dude insane.....BRAAAAAP!!!!!!
That dude loves him some Coca Cola.
0:01 is 2 cilinder kx 500?
I actually found out what it is, they put a GSXR1000 motor into that thing
what 2 or 4 stroke?
what start gear?
2nd, stay in 2nd.
that kawasaki sounded nasty 4 stroke for the win now this is what 4 strokes are made for climbing the shit out of hills.
you bet!!!
2 stroke might have a powerband but 4 stroke has a hell of a lot more torque good luck climbing steep hills on a 2 stroke.
What gear do they start? second or third?
It all depends on what sort of sprockets "gear ratios" they have as too what gears they use, hope this helps...
looks like an early '70s single cam 2 valve honda 750?
Braaaaaaapppp!!!!
i agree
That kx sounded like a super bike
i'v always heard 2 stroke brake down a lot easier and your more likely to fix them a lot more then a 4 stroke now i myself never owned one so i really can't say but my dad has and my friends have them too and they work on there bikes way more then i work on mine and cost wise parts are about the same and i know this for a fact because i live right next to a honda store.
A 500CC 2 Stroke VS A 250CC can't be classified as "almost the same". Yes it is more about luck and which path the rider takes, but the bike also has a big part in the speed department.
i agree with you also.
look at the kx at the start. dual pipes... wtf sweet
@zachnunes123456789
which one is that?
any hillclimb that is strictly on time, and the winner and 2nd place are within a couple tenths of a second.... is not a hillclimb...... This is just lame.
looks too me like there climbing a hill
ok
Yeah definitely looks like they are climbing a hill.Theres a hill with dudes on bikes... they are definitely riding motorcycles up said hill.Any one else feel like that describes a hill climb?
@xXDropD34DXx I didn't know there was a KX450R.

what do you mean?
not to mention how expensive and harder to maintain they are.
its all rider that guy was a good hill climer he kept the tire in the ground as much as he could. the other bikes go so fast you end up jumpin up the hill lol
They use Nitro instead of Premix. It's a high octane fuel.
well, it sure as hell is a lot closer to the same than a pw50 vs a cr500.
@ThisIsMotocross Basically all just depends on the rider I guess.
omfg the KX at 1:12
Finally makes the 500 2 strokes easy to ride....
0:34 bike???
1:11 sounds badass!!
that one at 34 sounds cool
I'm going to point something out right fast. Put any pro rider on a PW50 and an average/expert rider on a CR500. Sorry, but the average dude would win. Your name is true and that's why I'm not bashing too hard. Not to mention I just bought myself a YZ250 yesterday.
the v twin sounds the best in my oppinion
notice the key word in your statement QUAD i'm definitely not saying quads are better in fact i think dirt bikes are a 100% better then a quad but it all depends on how big the engine is who makes it and so on and i'm not saying 2 strokes can't go up hills what so ever i'm just saying there not made for that type of abuse like climbing hills all day 2 strokes are built for speed and 4 strokes are built for torque and power.
Is that why a 2 stroke won?
No, they start in second gear and stay in second gear the whole time.
@zachnunes123456789
isnt the one after it a v twin too?
good rider
because 450s are usually in a different class
Go Honda
