40 year old racer on his Honda CR500 two-stroke faces the GP elite at Hawkstone Park International 

Brilliant feature. Barry demonstrates the enthusiasm that makes us all love MX.

Huge respect and great to see the big 500 going strong.

Respect from Germany! 2 Strokes Never die!

That CR-500 was never a joke, it's always been a beast to ride!

Massive respect to Barry, love seeing the 500 Red Rocket blasting round! Tap up Nev Bradshaw for a guest ride next year!

I could barely understand a word. And I loved it!

Good stuff!! Great rides and bike rips!!! 💪 I'd probably rather have that vintage 500 smoker than a new '22 CRF450WE!!

I remember Jason Higgs leading a few laps of the Hawkstone International on a KX500 in the mid 2000s.

I parked next to Barry and his dad a few years back at hawkstone international ,(the year before covid),, both cracking Fellas.

Great ! A real man for a real bike! Long live the 2-stroke! 😂❤❤👍👍

All respect to Barry, it's hard work in Hawkstone whatever the weather!- rode it in '87. I was there for D.T. , George 'N' Jobe in '86. 3rd gear starts got me plenty of results on an '89-when I had all of my own teeth!- I could see Barry could have done it for def. Great vid Motohead boys👍👍👍

I spotted him on the live stream. Love the ole 500. 👍👍😁

Excellent.. Really enjoyed that!

Still race my 89, only take it out on nice days tho!, You are a trooper!! Cheers, great video

Cr500 will last you a lifetime ,fantastic motor 👍💯🤠

Awesome, well done Barry!

Cool authentic guy. Great vid.

That’s brilliant !!! English equivalent of Ronnie Mac haha 2 strokes for life ✊🏻. Seriously I recon in another 30 years the old cr 500 will still be a force to beat power wise 👍🏻 absolute beast

Yes bazza 💪 hawkstone International wouldn't be the same with out that bike there 👌👍

Proper geezer, 👍

Fantastic film of HawkStone 89Honda CR500 thanks 👍🏻❤️ 💥💨💨💥💨💥💥💨

Think Barry’s got amnesia as I watched his race at rowley in 2003 on a husaberg as a sponsored rider one he’ll of a rider was using the fence as a berm

Absolute pleasure to watch 🙂

Fair play to the guy respect. first place for sound and smell of the bike

What a down to earth nice bloke 👍🏻

Are you sure this was about racing the Honda CR500 ? Or was this more about showing more 450 4pukes?? Cuz I didn't see much footage of the CR500.....

Respect to that man 👏

I thought I was getting old at 40 🤣,now I'm 55 i think 40 year old are kids 🤠🤟💯🇬🇧,good 👍 luck everyone, not many make it past the Half Century mark 🤞

How much ccm are allowed? Thinking of Husqvarna TC 610/570 or Husaberg 600

Top bloke love the bike really nice example, makes me want to do it all again ,,,,, BUT the knees, elbows, wrists, and back are saying NO fkn way 😂

MAN, i need to get my Cr500 out there and do some Navis Senior racing !!! Open Class ,or where ever they'll let me race with who ever i don't care !!! My Whip is like No body else's

Amazing!

Koskaaaaaaaaall he’s some man bazzell

What a stand up guy

Check your swingarm bolt Barry, looks loose 👍

Does anyone know how average lap times around Hawstone compare with the Pros on the 500's in the day and the 450 4 strokes now?

Cool dude!

Excellent

Are chest protectors out of fashion now? Didn't see one! I know it was muddy there, but catching a big clump of mud in the chest ain't no fun without a protector! LOL!

The music ruins it...

Great other than bloody music, we want to here the bike working FFS!

Lol.Old Dinosaur. against Mordern Racebikes...🤣😂🙃
