I found this sight while looking for information on my Kx500. I found some really good topics and wanted to be part of it. I'm 38 years old / Firefighter who still loves to ride. I've had motorcycles since I was 6 years old. Last week I stumbled across a 2000 model Kx500 and talked the wife into letting me get it. WOW, I have never set my tail on anything like this. The bike is real nice, still had the original back tire, just needs a little cleaning. I'm looking forward to meeting some you guy's and pulling from your knowledge about these beast. I'm happy to be a member. Talk to you guy's soon..
