what mod for power ?

(1/4) > >>

I am a new guy here and I am looking to get some more power out of my 500 , It already has a Procircuit Platnium pipe and silencer  ( (and\or a FMF spark arrestor ) the motor has a recent complete rebuild , I opted for a non plated cylinder so I could bore it if need be . But I want to start tweeking it for more juice . I do alot of desert riding and I am always looking for more speed and power , I think my 500 turned me into a power junky !!!!!! There is nothing like the power of a KX500 !
Anyway your suggestions to get me started on mod's will be greatly appreciated !!!!!!!! Thanks guys .

I replied to your question in the Introduction post. But, here goes. What power do you favor? Desert... I'm assuming Top-end power? Explosion? Torque?

There are alot of different options you can choose. But, start with the type of power you like.

Hey Gowen ,, I would have to say top end power ! I love to out run all my friends on thier 450's in the desert .
I also love to hill climb though .

PVL ignition? Big top end rush. www.pentonimports.com  :evil:

Thanks timbowe ,
Hey Gowen I see your bike is setup for hillclimbing , very cool , but what gearing are you running ?
I am going to order a sprocket-chain set this week and haven't decided what to get yet . I love fast desert riding but also hillclimbing .
