A huge thanks to sandblaster for posting & putting these pics together, it is my son's 1998 KX500 and it wasn't much when he traded for it, I am working on modified seat brackets so the 450f rear fender looks perfect as it will allow me to move the fender forward & flush with the seat.
If you have questions I will try to answer them, I am anxious to start my own build with a couple of very good builders just wanted the boy to have a start on his.
He still needs the white decals put on his new side panels as one poster was correct on finding white panels, it is impossible so the decals are here just need them put on & UFO white front plate then graphics until winter when the bike will come apart for detailed rebuilding.
Openclassexpert:
Anyone curious about the Pro X billet basket I can't comment on how long it will last but it is a nice basket very well made & the springs having 10% more tension is a nice touch, function is flawless.
Pro X sent us pressure plate, inner hub, springs, steels & fibers, basket, kaw shop was source for all new hardware.
sandblaster:
Your doing a nice job.
You might want to consider a extended clutch puller arm.
You can reduce your clutch pull by 20% or more
