1998 KX500 | OEM Spec Build

(1/3) > >>

manco:
This project has been slow and go for almost a year now. Parts and pieces having been arriving over the past several months. Racer's Edge in Lakewood, CO rebuilt the bottom end last winter. Cylinder was re-plated by Millennium Technologies this past spring. Finally out of a pile of parts cluttering my shop a KX500 is beginning to emerge.

manco:
The direction of the build is fairly straight forward. I am focusing on returning the bike to relatively stock OEM condition. I am also building the bike for riding MX so there won't be the usual de-tuning "farkles" found on so many KX500s doomed to a life of putt putt putting along on trails. There are a few subtle custom touches here and there but mostly this build is as close to showroom spec as can be with limited changes to accommodate mx track riding.
