I must confess they are cool (but not as much as a RM 500). ;D

I love those Honda's as well....I love the little jiggle in the pipe to clear the radiator/shroud. If I was 33 instead of 63, a CR500 or an SC500 Maico would be my main ride. I just love that big bore grunt, it makes you feel as virile as all hell, even if you're coming last :).
