Haha it's a Honda cr500 motor. Maybe I should build him a Liger cylinder for it lol

Nice, thanks for sharing! Travis is a beast. If only I could have Red Bull build me a few bad @ss rally cars and trucks, oh what a life!

yeah, I got exited since they called it a zilla, but upon inspection its the same motor in the Honda 500AF, just different ignition cover to remove Honda from it. I think really all it is a Honda 500AF with yellow plastic!!

It is a 2014 RMZ 450 frame with cr500 motor. Travis is a beast and so fun to watch check out this vid from his nitro circus youtube channel. 4:25 favorite part.

This is worth watching. Anyone know what channel off hand?

If you own a smart phone....download the REDBULL TV app and watch it live! If you have a Google Chromecast then you can watch it on your TV ....Using the phone app! I can't wait till 5:30 to catch all the action!

He just lost in the tiebreaker to Hansen. That 2nd run he had was impressive tho. That 500 was pulling the 450's no problem.

That sucks i was wanting him to take 1st (obvious lol). How did stewart and dungey do?

I think if one of the pros was riding that 500 it would be great to watch.
You can tell Travis doesn't have the technique the pros do but it proved that 2 strokes can be competitive

Travis is and was a pro he just hasn't raced mx since early 2000's. Stewart and dungey train and practice daily.

I don't think any of today's pro's would even run that bike...they would be scared of it. Travis is a beast and has an amazing amount of talent. I don't think anyone imo would have ran that bike any better then him.
