[b]Holy Cow!![/b]

I finally got to ride my 2002 CR500AF yesterday and all I can say is WOW!!:scream:   I have owned 3 other 500's, numerous 125's and I can tell you this bike is so good it's not even funny!  The first thing you can't help but notice is how light these things are.....I mean it felt like I was on a 125!!  The bike definetly vibrates less than any of my other 500's as well.  I tried to take it easy and the motor (with Eric Gorr porting) feels pretty strong so far.  The mods done to my bike other than porting and decking the cylinder are; Renthal Twin Wall Bar (Emig bend), Tag Bar Mounts (rubber), DID VM 520 chain, Renthal ultralite front sprocket, Dunlop 755 front & 773 rear tires.  I have the suspension set the the factory settings and it is PLUSH!!!  I had two good friends there who both ride standard CR500's and after they saw it and felt how light it was they are ready to sell their kids and buy one!!  I am a believer!!  Light is right!!:)

Oh yeh....the 14/47 gearing ROCKS!!  I wish I had tried it before now.
