Sideplater:
Don't kick your 500 over wearing trackshoes ...

This is what happened to me to me kicking my '04 over 3 days ago.

motopunk:
oouuchhhh...  :cry:

i kick the beast only with mx-boots or my s3- safety work shoes . my leg was 2 times stronger than the k5 kickers...  8-)
you should update your bike with a compression release for easier starting...  :-)

get well soon and back on track ... :wink:

Foxx4Beaver:
that's one of the worst kicker wounds I've seen in a long time....I won't even kick my 250 over in anything but boots.

i agree... i know a guy who broke his middle foot by kicking a 250 with sneakers on...

i say always: safety first... :-D

Polar-Bus:
A KX500 RH footpeg can and will peel open your calf like a soft bananna if improper "PPE" is not worn...   (see pics above)


FYI : "PPE"  is the industry standard description for "personal protective equipment"
