Pros: Big power, very reliable, cheap to maintain, still smokes the competition (4-stroke MX bikes).
Cons: Not made anymore; have to buy used, or new custom built from Service Honda.

| hondacr500r2k's Full Review: 2001 Honda CR500R |
Despite what some say, the CR 500R is as easy to ride as any two stroke MX bike and the old school steel frame and KYB suspension does a fine job of soaking up rough terrain. These bikes are the most reliable of all two strokes as I almost got 5 years before I needed to do a top-end and the factory stock bottom end is still getting it done. These bikes are cheaper to maintain than the smaller cc MX bikes and their new competition, the 4-stroke MX bikes.
The fun factor is higher up on the scale with these bikes as the power is always there no matter what throttle position your in. Roll in to it and hold on and the 500R will take you anywhere you want to go, mud, steep hill climbs, mx tracks, sand dunes, you name it -- this bike is the king and jack of all trades.
