KX-500 Compression Release Mod! Easy Starting!!!
Kawadougie:
I found this auction on E-Bay for a compression release for big bore 2 strokes. I won the auction and have since sent my cylinder off to be modified. I should have it back by next weekend. I will give a full report after I ride it. The whole point is to relieve some compression for starting only.

quincyman:
Yes I saw that a couple days ago and went back to look at it several times. Can't wait to hear how it turns out.
Torch654:
Look forward to hearing how this works for you, Good luck. :D
Timbowe:
Theres your answer Quincy. Get that compression ratio back and no more busted kickers!
KXcam22:
My old montesas use to have one but I can't say I have had an issue with the huge KX compression. Just kick it with attitude (oh yeah and one of the new kickstart levers so it doesn't break off). Cam.
