Message: [QUOTE="jw380, post: 258889, member: 21556"] I have a 380.It's biggest advantage over the 500s is the new age chassis and handling.The 500s were designed in the 80s and have the same design and handling today.There is a company that puts a KX500 motor in a 250 frame(not sure of the name)and there is Service Honda who puts a CR500 motor in the alum.frame 250.The CR500AF, as it is called, is about $2000 more than a new 380.There is an article in this month's dirt rider magazine about it.Impressive bike.I like my 380 but am considering a four stroke due to the massive power of the 380 in these eastern woods causing danger to my physical being.She's a rrrripper!
