ANYBODY HERE TALKING ABOUT USING THE POWERBAND OF A CR500 ON AN INCLINE IS A NEWB... MY ADVICE IS TO STOP TALKING BECAUSE ITS APPARENT THAT YOU HAVE NEVER ATTEMPTED TO "POWERBAND" UP A HILL WITH A 500... Because if you had you would learn how bad of an idea it was and how different the bike reacts when you have twice the power of any bike you have ever owned...get a 500 then start posting shit newbees
Dumb shits I have an rm 125 for yall that or sayin shit about him in low rpms well on a 2 stroke it's hard to get up hills like that if you don't know what the fuck your doing
i garuntee you that hill is alot steeper technical in person but theres always some idiot who can climb it on his 50cc pitbike better then the guy in the vid...thats when you can tell they never been on real ride real hill before because all enduro riders know hills look easy on vid but deadly in reality
@matt420740 Unlike you and that guy in the video I can actually ride and from the moment that guy hopped over that little bump at the start I would've hit band and torn it all the way up that pissy hill.
@matt420740 I find your insipid comment humerous. I strongly suggest you go forth and penetrate your rectum with a foreign object. Good day to you sir!
Some of the comments on here are missing the point I reckon. The beauty of this vid, and I've watched a heap of times, is the last few meters of the hill where the motor is almost siting on idle, and it just keeps going. A four banger isn't going to match that at idle. It's not always easy to grap the clutch, and you can get caught out and stall. Also the lower the revs the better traction you get, being able to take a bike down that low, will help you get up very slippery hills with ease.
That being said I ride 450s, and Im faster because of it. But My bikes arent worth anything for re sale, I had to learn to completely rebuild my bike because the labor costs are nuts, and even 10% over dealer cost on parts its still expensive. I do miss the 125 sound tho. but Ive crashed less because of being on the smoother, 450.
they arent better than 450fs, for these reasons. harder to ride, dated chassis and suspension. Better than fourstrokes for these reasons, way cheaper, much higher horsepower per cc, anyone with six metric wrenches can do a top end on a 2 stroke, for well under 300 bucks. get as lippy as you want about how great 4 strokes are, blow one up and then talk. Plus two strokes especially 125s are just way more fun sounding, and the neighbors dont complain as much
@TheLoopy989 Agreed,you can still get a modern suspension set up for the older 2ts,but it costs,I love the ease of maintenance,and more power per cc.But than again,I grew up on CR,YZ and RM bikes.
@riderKMC lol ''deep''? , deep is what 4 bangers make, the bike in this video sounds sounds deeper than it should cuz the guy riding it is in the wrong gear and dosent no how to ride a 2stroke properly
@TeoZMuff313 its the same weight if not lighter with twice the balls, 450s are sick fun, but a cr500af is the fuckin shit w w w.911mx.c o m/Host/AF/ServiceHonda_CR500AF_2011_001.jpg
@myldmnrd epa is just another way the government likes to give it to us in the ass. some things that actually ruin the enviornment i understand but big bore 2 strokes really are not an issue. just like diesel.
@willy1willy2 but my daddy can beat up your daddy!! grow up little man and stay off and monsters cause you seem a bit angry muffin and no i don't have a kx i got rid of the piece of shit spent more time fixing it than riding it but you have a nice day!!
@Nameless41000 no its bec not many 2t's are being made anymore and they are there to promote the newer bikes they race. Also if they had 250 2s on the tracks with the 450s you all know what would happen with a good rider...
@motabikeboy your dumb for even commenting back with an invalid argument. ive owned and ridden many two strokes and the closest thing to my honda 450 are the 500's. the 250s love to spin there tires up hillclimbs and its nothing like the 4 strokes.
my 89 500 was one of the best trail bikes ive ever ridden. i geared mine steep and put a torque pipe on it. it would push any bike in tight terrain. then as soon as it got straight all you had to do is sit down and twist.
Ive been riding cr500's in Very tight woods for 10 years or so with 27 inch bars. I won't ride anything else. I weigh 245 so it was easy to make the cr500 my bitch. Fuck a valve train.

I've just finished rebuilding an old CR500 and took it on its first ride in to the hills and man... just point it at a hill - and its going up ! So much power down low. Was a real pleasure. Much more grin - factor than my 450 MX bike. :)
cute toy, but if this turn off on bad place u'll get also bad until to turn it on. I mean realy bad place, where the kick starter can not make the whole travel or u can not touch the ground by the left side ;)
so when the power band hits, are you doing a wheelie no matter what, or are you only doing a wheelie if you hit the power band at half throttle or more?

@SpeedDemon073 My mate would like to try and get one of these engines and fit it in a trx quad or sumthing, I imagine itd be mental, also he said his mate has one and itll pull away in like any gear without boggin down at all apparently theyre such nice bikes!
mine is like wheelie at half throttle for first couple gears and 3/4 just spins and full pretty much does a burnout and wheelie... The guy before me modded it though.
Mine is like wheelie at half throttle first couple o gears, 3/4 throttle is like a burnout can't grip, and full throttle pretty much digs a trench while doing a wheelie. The guy i bought it from modded the engine and put a high performance pipe on it.
@SpeedDemon073 so you only ike riding 125's? thats all a 250f is... four strokes garbage... ride a real bike, Im dyin to ride a 500 my 2str 250 is getting old
The RPM range in which the engine is most efficient.
In a 2 stroke there is a very noticable point at which the engine feels like it really takes off. This has to do with the shape and length of the expansion chamber, and the bigger the CC's the less sever the "hit" is. On a 125 it's a night an day difference. On a 500 it's there, but not as noticable due to the fact it makes so much power down low already.
You have to remember that an engine does not have a continous horsepower output. It makes varying amounts of HP throughout it's operable RPM range. Once you reach very high RPM's you actually start dropping off in HP (due to the fact that at high RPM's there's not enough time to get enough fuel in the cylinder). At this drop off point you can continue to accelerate until you reach maximum RPM (redline) but your acceleeration rate will decrease.
A CR500 in stock form makes about 58 HP at 6000 RPM. Powerband starts at about 3500 rpm (25 HP) and pulls HARD until about 6700 rpm (58 HP) and starts dropping HP off fast after that.
@SpeedDemon073 someone had commented on another video saying that CR500's dont have powerband....i take it thats not true then? or is it simply not as aggressive as say a 250 since the engine is making so much power even out of powerband? i would love to have a ride on one some day....a little hard to come by now though in AUS.
I'v ride a Yamaha YZf250 (4 stroke)and at same day, i'v ride a Crf250 (4stroke)... this bikes is so different then I'm used to ride, 'cuz I ride my DT180 on the trail all the time, and I'm afraid of broken parts;
you sound like a 14 year old smack talking poser, but who really cares.
I don't see you having any vids posted to prove your superhuman offroad abilities so until you've got something to show, ZIP IT and keep dreamin about how cool you think you are.
Every bike every made weather its 2 or 4 stroke has a power band but its a dramatic jump in 2 strokes where 4 strokes u can feel as much of a jump in power and a cr125 powerband compared to a cr500 the 125 jumps alot more where th 500 kinda eases into it trust me i no i have both a kx125 and cr500
@RockMan5431 A powerband is not a part like most kids seem to think. All engines have a powerband. All "the powerband" is, is the RPM range at which the engine is making its most power. Cr500s have mostly low end power where as 125's have top end so when you get on a 125 you will notice the power come on more than a cr500. Cr500s jsut pull like hell all the time if you get on the throttle.
Thanks I thought they should but My dad and his friend were both convinced it didnt have one, Probobly because there both to scared to give it some power, btw i have a rm 125 so i know what there like ^^
@RockMan5431 No problem dude...Just be sure to tell your dad and his friend that they need to learn what a powerband is before they make a statement like that. I cant count how many people i have met that actually think the powerband is some magical part in the engine. As i stated though it is just the RPM range that an engine makes its max power.
they are right and wrong. a 500 power band wont hit very hard because the motor can create so much vacuum at a low rpm the power band rolls on very early so its not as noticable, where as smaller 2 stokes, especially 60s and 80s, will hit so hard once they hit that vacuum level at a high rpm theyl wheelie themselves
they make excellent bikes for tight woods actually, I got some vids of me riding mine in some tight stuff.
sure a CR500 has too much power, but it also got massive bottom end that will pull tall gears with ease, it will lug through any terrain at near idle speed and still rip your arms of on the straights!!
Nice one, looks similar to some of the terrain we ride here in Oz

@SpeedDemon073
I bought a '96 CR250 that was used for ice racing, also a wheelie machine.
I mean, you could be going down hill, 4th gear, all your weight over the bars, burp the throttle, and still wheelie it.
Throttle had two settings, putt-putt-putt, and full-on tearing ass down the trail leaving a 6" deep trench in your wake. No in-between.
I can't imagine what a well tuned 500 would be like.

mine is like wheelie at half throttle for first couple gears and 3/4 just spins and full pretty much does a burnout and wheelie... The guy before me modded it though.

Mine is like wheelie at half throttle first couple o gears, 3/4 throttle is like a burnout can't grip, and full throttle pretty much digs a trench while doing a wheelie. The guy i bought it from modded the engine and put a high performance pipe on it.

Hey speed demon073
Ive seen this hill on another video looks like an awesum place to ride where is it ?
Great comment about the power band and horsepower of this beast I'm the proud owner of an 87 CR 5 and I love Flying it

I'm not manly enough to take the 500 on the track. I'll stick to the CRF250 for that.

guys i ve rode fro a long time but i dont know a thnig bout my bike my dad and bro usually repair it
what is a powerband?
zombi105 2 years ago
The RPM range in which the engine is most efficient.
In a 2 stroke there is a very noticable point at which the engine feels like it really takes off. This has to do with the shape and length of the expansion chamber, and the bigger the CC's the less sever the "hit" is. On a 125 it's a night an day difference. On a 500 it's there, but not as noticable due to the fact it makes so much power down low already.
SpeedDemon073 2 years ago
basicly there is a too high and too low for the most eficient rpm's and if it too high wont go as fast???
zombi105 2 years ago
You have to remember that an engine does not have a continous horsepower output. It makes varying amounts of HP throughout it's operable RPM range. Once you reach very high RPM's you actually start dropping off in HP (due to the fact that at high RPM's there's not enough time to get enough fuel in the cylinder). At this drop off point you can continue to accelerate until you reach maximum RPM (redline) but your acceleeration rate will decrease.
SpeedDemon073 2 years ago
A CR500 in stock form makes about 58 HP at 6000 RPM. Powerband starts at about 3500 rpm (25 HP) and pulls HARD until about 6700 rpm (58 HP) and starts dropping HP off fast after that.
SpeedDemon073 2 years ago
@SpeedDemon073 someone had commented on another video saying that CR500's dont have powerband....i take it thats not true then? or is it simply not as aggressive as say a 250 since the engine is making so much power even out of powerband? i would love to have a ride on one some day....a little hard to come by now though in AUS.

yes I'm sure your so good that you actually ride a unicycle with a 600 cc engine. no need for a front tire because your just that awesome....

Some one told me that cr500's dont have power bands because they have so much power is this true?
RockMan5431 2 years ago
Well the 500 does have more power all over, so the powerband is not as dramatic as it is on smaller bikes, but any 2 stroke has a powerband.
SpeedDemon073 2 years ago

Every bike every made weather its 2 or 4 stroke has a power band but its a dramatic jump in 2 strokes where 4 strokes u can feel as much of a jump in power and a cr125 powerband compared to a cr500 the 125 jumps alot more where th 500 kinda eases into it trust me i no i have both a kx125 and cr500
flamin400ex 2 years ago
@RockMan5431 A powerband is not a part like most kids seem to think. All engines have a powerband. All "the powerband" is, is the RPM range at which the engine is making its most power. Cr500s have mostly low end power where as 125's have top end so when you get on a 125 you will notice the power come on more than a cr500. Cr500s jsut pull like hell all the time if you get on the throttle.
Master7770 2 years ago
Thanks I thought they should but My dad and his friend were both convinced it didnt have one, Probobly because there both to scared to give it some power, btw i have a rm 125 so i know what there like ^^
RockMan5431 2 years ago
@RockMan5431 No problem dude...Just be sure to tell your dad and his friend that they need to learn what a powerband is before they make a statement like that. I cant count how many people i have met that actually think the powerband is some magical part in the engine. As i stated though it is just the RPM range that an engine makes its max power.
Master7770 2 years ago 2
Dont worry ill make it loud and clear ^^
RockMan5431 2 years ago
they are right and wrong. a 500 power band wont hit very hard because the motor can create so much vacuum at a low rpm the power band rolls on very early so its not as noticable, where as smaller 2 stokes, especially 60s and 80s, will hit so hard once they hit that vacuum level at a high rpm theyl wheelie themselves

rmfan13 2 years ago
they make excellent bikes for tight woods actually, I got some vids of me riding mine in some tight stuff.
sure a CR500 has too much power, but it also got massive bottom end that will pull tall gears with ease, it will lug through any terrain at near idle speed and still rip your arms of on the straights!!
