Before JackJohnson could
win the San Felipe 250, he
and his XR500R bad to survive the San Felipe 250.
Which entailed grinding
. it out over sand and rocks.
FOrding rain-swollen streams.
Full-out stretches of treacherous
high-speed road. A 4,200-foot
climb intothe mountains.
And, of course, doing it all
faster than the world's
top desert racers.
Not everyone has what it took for
Jack to pull it off. But anyone can get
the bike it took.
The 1983 Honda XR500R.
It's the lightest production 500 a:
four-stroke weve everbuiltWith our
exclusive new RFVC (Radial FOur~ve Combustion) chamber. It has a
true hemispherical shape and radically steep valve angles. This allows
a higher compression ratio and
promotes more efficient,
rapid oombustion than
ordinary designs. .
