SoCal K5 Rider Onboard
« on: November 28, 2006, 07:20:25 AM »

Cool Forum, greeting to all

Been Riding Kawi's since I was a kid 86 KX250 & 93 KX250
Currently building/Restoring a K5 primarily from parts off e-bay.  So far I have the egine (88), frame & Suspention (92), fuel tank and radiator.  I plan on doing a top and bottom end rebuild on the motor and send the forks and shock to Race Tech for valving, oil change and springs.

SoCal
 I dont know if you are still trying to build up the K5 but there is a guy on Ebay with a parted out 86 I think frame and just about all other parts looks like no reserve on most of the parts. Good luck if you are still working on the bike.
