Hey fellas my name is Jeremy I'm new! I'm from Pittsburgh pa live in Ohio now Recently got rid of my 2014 ktm to buy a cr500 I bought an 01 model. I race awrcs national enduros and a gncc once in a while I am a single track fanatic. I think this site is awesome seems like a good group was , or is still here I would like to be a part of this! I bought this bike because I had one when I was in high school (had a green one too) thought it would be fun again and always thought the cult following was awesome too. I was a field supervisor for an oilfield company before, was laid off. Now I am a maintance man at a hospital. Good job decent pay and every weekend off for riding. I hope this site doesn't go away like the 2 strokes did a few years ago let's keep this thing alive. PS jetting this PJ carb is a nightmare!!!

Glad you're here!
Thr carb, get a PWK airstriker from a 2000 cr250. Stay away from the vf-3 Reed, can make for tuning nightmares from reversion leaking back.
