Openclassexpert's KX500 rebuild
Openclassexpert:
I seen that & it is going to be part of his winter rebuild, that is a nice looking piece on your bike, once my son puts a true day of riding in with pops leading the way :) he'll know why that extension is nice.
Openclassexpert:
Just in case anyone wonders, the bike had a rad valve in it & we weren't happy with the performance so a moose spacer & VF3 reeds and this is SOP only but it runs much better IMO along with platinum pipe & 304 shortened so it sounds excellent & revs faster IMO feels like it pulls much better mid to high & proper jetting & 40 to 1 amsoil on a 500 you don't need lower end IMO it as enough for everyone.
I love the look of a shorter silencer on my past 500s so I passed it on to my boy, the VF3 fit with and without the reed spacer, the reed stops did have a good amount of pressure on them from the intake, if anyone was curious but with the moose spacer you will not have any interference from the intake with 16 reed petal VF3.
