Street Legal – 1993 Honda CRE500

In Dual-Sport, Japan by AbhiLeave a Comment

The CR500 is a truly legendary motorcycle with a long history, but did you know that Honda Australia created a street-leagl version called the CRE500? It’s been difficult to find the official story, though there’s plenty of rumors – one of which is that Honda Australia ordered too many CR500s and so they got certification and converted 250 of them to an enduro model called the CRE.

My research suggests that the bikes were created at the end of the CR’s run (2001/2002) so I’m not sure what the story is with this 1993. Still, it’s cool to see a street-legal 500 (in this case, with an Idaho plate).

Find this CRE for sale in Lincoln, California for $9,500 here on Facebook (you’ll have to be a member of the group to see the post).
