Don't be so negative, a big fat dent on a fmf fatty might very well be a performance gain, d**n sure couldn't hurt. :-D :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :cry: :cry:

i didn,t ment to be negative bdi..
it,s just my mechanic eye that,s spotting an issue
and here we learned that an expansion pipe must be free of dents,
since the flow off the exhaust is now more restricted due to the dents.
i think otherwise FMF would have changed the layout of their fatty instantly,don,t you think?

That would be what you call sarcastic It was ment as a joke. In other words not to be taken seriously. allthough I do think the fmf pipe for the kx500 sucks but that is just my opinion I want all out power and that is not what the fmf pipe was designed for, fmf was shooting for "rideability". P.S. If it was me I would have glass beed blasted that dingy old head so that it looked as nice as the rest of the engine. Sorry that's just the perfectionist In me pointing things out.And If it was me I would put some oil in the transmission before I road it.
KX500freak:
oh i think this is a misunderstanding!!
i didnt see the joke in your reply,sorry :roll:
and for the head ,you are right i only just cleaned it . :mrgreen:
but for the oil you,re judging too fast...
i was assembling the bike at that point ,
and i,m used of doing all the fluids in one job,
first filling up gearbox with oil.
then after that filling up the coolingsystem with coolant.
so this way you cannot forget a fluid during the proces.

I was just giving you a hard time just some freindly joking around. I realize you are going to put oil in it just like I'm sure Davidvak1 is going to air up his front tire before he rides,Some thing just go with out saying. I think most people who post here are reasonably intelligent
maddoggy:
hey bdi, i think that the engine needs a pipe on it or it will run like crap and have no power. but seriously that engine looks real nice and the bike should be a ton of fun on blacktop. MADDOGGY :-D :-P :-D :-P :-D
