world record jump
« on: December 31, 2007, 03:46:19 PM »
Tonight at nine a guy is going for the world record attempt.I hope all you guys get to see it live. they are using a cr500 instead of a kx500 because they were afraid he would over jump it :-D

not that he was afraid that he would over jump it . he was just more afraid of the power of a kx500 than he was of the long jump . lol . you know how those honda guys are . they dodn't beleave anything else exist lol .  :lol: :lol: :lol:

it looked like a service honda cr 500..  he hase guts and guts is enough,,,,i do think the same great chassy with the right modded k5 moter  would get him some more top speed for maybe a longer jump,, but he will have to find some one that can beat that great feat he has already done.. may be a while

That was sick but he did run out of speed and then he kept burning the tire like that would help but thats just making the tire smaller and scrubing off top end. He should have made every one wait twenty minutes and went down one tooth on the back sprocket. I bet that would get him another 10 to 15 feet.
