Here is our winter project, started in February finished a few days ago. Enjoy!

Started with a 2009 CRF450R frame, and a 1986 CR500R motor. All the chassis parts came from forums, eBay and Honda shops.

What do you guys think?:cool:

Number two.

Oh me, oh my. That's true old school like the GSXR7/11s

Nice work, but man did you have to polish it so pretty... it's (almost) too clean to take into the dirt.

You've got to post some vids when done.

How long did it take... love that it's a ebay special... Inventive. Very inventive. :D

Very Nice! That turned out really good. One of these will be my next project.

Why did you go with a CRF frame?

A lot of AF 500's I see use a CR250 frame and I'm not sure what the mods it intails to do the swap. Is one easier than the other (CR vs CRF)?

Nice work! A true "B.Y.O.B.I.S."! (if ya read UK bike mags, you'll understand!). Sweet bike though, an early CR500 was one bike that truly scared the sh!t outa me...(tall geared desert sled= 80mph tankslappers!)

Semper Fi! :rockon
