01_5hunna:
Im new to this site so Im unsure if there is already a thread about it, but updated side plates for the kx500? anything that looks better than stock?

sandblaster:
I'm not aware of anything aftermarket but grab a pocket knife and whittle yours up some.
There are several designs that guys here have used..
I'm not done with mine yet but working on it..

Foxx4Beaver:
there are no fancy aftermarket side plates...like Sandblaster said, whittle away...
not sure what your thoughts are on the rear fender...but updating that to 2000 or newer really makes a difference in how it makes the entire bike look.
The updated rear fender isn't for everyone...some guys like the big original fender.




and I run an 03 250 front...

demographic:
I quite like the droopy rear fender as it holds my registration plate and rear light at enough of an angle that I don't need extra brackets.
If it never went on the road I would have changed it to one of the modern straighter KX 250 ones by now.
As it is, its not so good looking but its about as functional as it gets.

Not the best photo but you get the idea, Obviously I've obscured the actual number on the photo.

Motorrad:
I spy a montesa
