Awesome survivor low original mileage Honda 500R. Rebuilt top end including new piston and rings with rebuilt cylinder head! Fresh, not even broken in yet. I have built several of these bikes in my younger days and still ride a built to the hilt 82 xl so I am very familiar with these motors. I am only selling this one because I have no interest in collecting, only riding these old jewels and since I can't ride 'em both at the same time one has to go. New o ring chain, new factory original grips and new clutch and brake levers. Still wearing her original speedometer!! Plastics are orig. as well although the rear fender has a crack. Very fast bike ready to ride. The 81-82 xr's are becoming increasingly harder to find in any condition. They were the first pro-link suspension thumpers. This bike is just under 300 lbs. Honda completely redesigned the bike and motor for the 1983 model year. (never quite hitting the mark imho) Sold with a bill of sale only. Will work with buyer to ship anywhere, and no. It is not cheaper to send it in pieces, this aint no ct70. This from MCS... When the rider clicks the XR into gear, he feels the 500 accelerate smoothly right from idle. In light of Honda's fondness for high-rewing engines, it « not surprising that the XR quickly builds power into the high rpm range One does not ordinarily want to keep a btg four-stroke single spinning hard because of the vibration, but the XR is controllable and offers its best power up high. But this doesn't mean the Honda is lacking in tow-end power; check these figures out. The XR develops 11.82 horsepower and 24.82 pounds/feet of torque at 2500 rpm—barely above idle. At 3500 rpm it's producing 17 horsepower and 26 lbs/ft of torque, compared to 13 horsepower and 19 lbs/ft of torque developed by last years Yamaha TT500. While the XR makes its best power at 6500 rpm (33.44 horsepower), it doesn't penalize overrewing, continuing to produce nearly 27 horsepower up until 8500 rpm. This powerband is superb: it lets the rider power out of tight situations, chug up hills effortlessly and relax while he trail rides There is also a predictable but abundant surge of power m the mid-range, at which point it's incredibly easy to wheelie the machine in the first three gears. Thanks to its smooth powerband. riding the Honda is above all tun.

idreamtodayhopes Store Due to lack of time in my life, I am sadly giving up this great 1982 Honda XR500R ProLink Motorcross Motorcycle. This bike runs great and fast! I have done an oil change and put in a new spark plug. Took it out the other day for one last ride and had a blast! Engines runs great and the frame is straight. The back tire needs to be replaced. There is no speedometer on this bike. This is an off-road bike with no way to confirm the mileage on it, the 500 listed above is just so I can list it and means nothing. There are 2 tears on the seat - one on the back left corner (about 3 by 4 inches) and on the right front corner (about 1.5 inches.)
