K5 To sleeve or not to sleeve?

<< < (7/7)

YUNGGUNNAZ:
it would be nice if you could  keep the 250 as well.but if you're for another thrill ride then by all means hop aboard and hold tight. :-D

r1ray:
I rode a yz426f before I got the kx250. I miss the grunt of that big bore 4, but would like the big bore hit of a 2 smoke.

2001KX5:
well I was speaking with Eric today and he told me that its the worse seizure he has seen on a KX500 lol. To make a long story short he recommended an over sized sleeve and thats the route I'm going.  My KX250 was sleeved and I diden't have a hitch, so I'll let ya know how it works out ;)

I'm still going to keep an eye out for another cylinder, but I'm still weary about buying one off ebay.
