just my .02

LOL !!! My man i can guarantee you i'm no stranger to goin big on a dirt bike. Displacement means very little to me,,,,now ergos, suspension etc does. I'd say the K5 is somewhat primitive in that department comaped to my 05 CRF 450 R.
You can best believe i will find out gradually, post up a few pics.
Thanks for the replies fellas.
Wicked site on da go :-D

You take a open class monster man bike to a little supercross style track and ask how it will fair?
Not to well for you when you "blip" your throttle on the face of a table. Not advised.......
Take the 500 out where it can run and see how the baby 450 will handle it. Riding a Five o on a small track is like racing a big block in a parking lot.
