Maintaining the KX500

tharden:
I have not posted much, but enjoy reading what is going on in the forum.  I have not been able to ride much lately either. I did get the chance to rebuild the front shocks, and it was much easer than I thought it would be.  I must say that the rebuilt shocks have really improved the handling of the bike.  I then replaced the stock chain and sprockets, and I feel much more comfortable with on the trails.  After riding the 500 I must say I will never go to another bike, as this bike has my utmost respect.

dans89kx500:
Yes, they're great bikes. I've thought many times of buying something newer and so on...but...this weekend like many others, I will be on my 89k5

I ride mine like a 4-stroke.  I can lug that thing to the very bottom, and blip the throttle and just hop over most things.  There is nothing like a big 2-stroke, if you don't mind getting a little vibration.

and half the fuel range of a 450 enduro bike..
