    States in the auction that it is a honda factory 500 prototype frame?

    That bike would be a real fun ride down a fast dirt road though.

    the fenders ar like that because it is reverse kick. I think its a 200x with a xr500 motor in it. looks nice though. I want the shock and swingarm to be honest with you.

    nice but VERY doubtful. I wonder what it is titled as? i wonder if he will take some pics without the tank? it looks like the tank is way back on the frame and that it may split right there. the frame is not a 200x frame but the tank and rear fenders are. the front is a 250r.

    Yeah thats a early to mid 80s XR500R motor. I had one. Those motors were Torque monsters. My dirt bike ( XR500R )would just shread and tear lugs off the tires on hard packed ground.

    I bet Dean will know for sure..

    He wrote in his long live 3wheeling mag thread that he was lucky enough to ride one of those prototypes back in the day. I'm willing to bet he can tell us for sure if its legite or not.

    Either way I think it's pretty trick.
