I have a couple of short video clips of me and my riding buddy in a desert drag with the KX5 VS the YZ490  I will see if I can dig them up and post them in the gallery! :-D :-D

KXcam22:
I've heard that the yz490 is the only bike harder to jet the the KX500. :mrgreen: Cam.

Timbowe:
the KX5 is much more a civilised machine compared to the 490. Which is why the YZ had so many changes over its much shorter lifespan. The kx remained unchanged largley for 13 years. Why change a good design that works. Kawasaki hadA WINNER  with this model. Yamaha was a flash in the pan by comparison.

 Did you guys ever have the SC500? I older guy here had one thay he did up to look better than factory. Like Craigs ITs.

alan:
Yep I had 2 SC500 and one 360 they were pigs, but they weren't to bad in the desert!

Check my Safety Gear!

From 8mm video clip!
