I am interested in this swap as well....Any info on it?

Roosta_man:
I purchased a steering stem from Emig.  Pressed it in to the YZ 450F triple clamp and bolted the entire front end onto my 04 500.  The KX 500 steering stop needs to be modified to make sufficient contact with the lower triple clamp with this setup.
