A perfect example of STD's (Save The Dirtbikes). I cannot belive that anyone would do this to a CR. This is terrible!

I wonder if the asshole that did this to that bike realizes he put a slower motor in place of the original. What a fucken dip shit.

Remember way back in the old days when they burned witches at the stake?..........Yeah.....they should burn this A-hole on a stake. He just broke every known rule in the MX community. I am 99% sure the guy had to of been put into a mental institution after that build.

This is him.

We could probably pay to have him killed. I'm sure once the hitman saw the "crime" his rate would come down to next to nothing.

Why in the heck don't people spend 5 minutes to clean stuff up a little before taking pics to advertise for sale? That drives me nuts!

Would you rather have that bike brand new, or the new 2013 450?

Here's a couple hybrids I found:

XR100 motor, KX80 frame (this one actually looks pretty cool IMO)


XR400 motor, CR125 frame (Look at that front fender! WTH?!!!)


XR200 motor, partial Cr125 frame, YZ plastic on front

I was also one of those people drooling over the 2013 CRF450 pictures from yesterday until I saw this one!!

...If only I had some of the high-end paintball stuff he wants that could land me this sweet bike!! LOL...

I personally never tire of these craigslists ads. I welcome them just as I do my morning cup of coffee.

There is nothing funnier than someone that wasn't trying to be funny, and you can always count on the occasional craigslist motorcycle ad to deliver.

Somewhere in my vast archives of computer files I saved a local listing from a few years ago of someone trying to sell a CR500.

The sales description included a long, detailed and graphical narrative of the circumstances that led to the eventual listing of the bike (complete with a thorough description of injuries sustained and recovery process).

If I can scrape it up I will post it here to share the hilarity it provides.

"break line" That cracked me up as much as the POS that he turned that innocent CR into.

Hmmm, thats a tough one. This is a twin cylinder. lol!

I emailed the guy and offered 100 bucks for it, i doubt he will sell it for that but worth a try. I could use some of the parts for my 86. If I get it I will put it out of its misery.

Actually Burn.....this bike right here would of been a perfect race worthy pit bike. It looks like a great conversion actually. During our BBR pit bike races we held at our big AX track here in the NW , we had about 180 pit bike racers from around the entire west coat ( and some from new Zealand ) that had bikes kind of like this. It was before the CRF150 was released , and guys would stick the XR 150's and XR 100 motors ( What are they....CRF , instead of instead of CRF150R or whatever? ).

Anyways.....they were the bigger size pit bike conversions that full sized dudes were racing. I kid you not.....I saw some $20,000 + BBR works pit bikes that would blow your mind. I couldn't ever afford one , but I rode a few......and holy crap!!.....they were one fun little bike!

Holy crap!! That right there is a perfect description of what some would call " A death machine"........how in the hell could you even ride that SOB?

And Burn......the larger bikes like the one I posted above.....most bikes in that size range after a conversion could be about $3500.00 - $7000.00. It was the fully modified bikes that size with the perimeter frames and so forth that were all custom made.....and around $15,000. The really expensive ones were the smaller 110cc sized pit bikes that were setup with like 12" - 14" wheels ( I think that's what size they were ) ....like what Kyle Coen was racing.....those were the $20,000 bikes. Looking at one up close....you could see the craftsmanship and exactly how exotic they really were.....really impressive.
