38mm is the only cast available now. But im sure there coming. what ive heard the 38 cast works pretty good on the CR500 but the 40 works better on the KX.

Sweet! I have been thinking hard about this conversion all summer. I am an avid sled rider and have ridden a few of the Husabergs and Suzuki with the Radix and Timbersled kits on the snowbikes. I am just getting my K5 back together and curious to see if its really worth buying the kit and making the switch to a snowbike?

My bike is a 99 with an 89 motor. Questions being, is there much modification to make the Timbersled fit? How is the torque curve with the track setup? I ride low elevation. 1000-3500' and wondering about jetting with the stock carb? I have only seen the 4 strokes in action, besides a few short u tube vids on the k5 and very little info on the performance.

I would think the thing would RIP!  Please tell me more, as I am very curious to see results and possibly get this for mine. Any info would be much appreciated.

Thanks. Shawn

You need to do whatever you can to put a better boot on that thing. Trust me...
