[QUOTE="jski, post: 166794, member: 22603"] I have a 2000 CR-500 that sounds identical to what you describe and has since it was new, it now has around 40 hours on it and still sounds the same and runs great. After my first ride I was concerned about this and talked to the service department at my local dealer who said it was normal and the other 2000 he had sounded the same. After reading the comments here I checked the flywheel and compression which were good but I did find this comment on another message board that has me wondering: 2000 & 2001 CR500 factory defect "If you buy one, first put bike on the intake stroke, put bike in 2nd gear then rock it back & forth, if you here tinging noise its piston slaping,at 5hr run time I pulled the head and found 40-50 thousand piston gap, should be .004.luckely the shop is trying to get factory to replace top end." Does anybody here have any comments on this and if the test is a good one for piston slap? Thanks [/QUOTE]
