Hi, i'm new to this forum!!!

i have a 2001 kx500 that is almost stock.
i was thinking to put an fmf gnarly desert pipe with power core silencer and a reed spacer made by moose.
maybe someone have experienced this combo.......
what do you think of that?????????? is this a good choice (i want overall power)
and how this will affect my jetting

main 168-170
needle stock, 2 clip
55 pilot
air screw 1.5

thank you

Many of us run your above setup (myself included). I am also running the "thin" .008" head gasket, and 100% Cam II race fuel. I am jetted #162 on the main. Once you lean the KX500 down a bit, it REALLY comes to life, and becomes way easier to start.
