KX500 Quad!

(1/3) > >>

KX5Zuki:
Not sure if this will spark any interest, but I am building a drag quad with a '86 KX5 motor on Alky and n2o. Heres a couple pics of the frame progress. If any one out there has pics of some nice looking KX5 quads, post em up! Or even trikes, I like the Tecate 3. Oh, and by the way, this is '08 KFX450R Plastics, the new race quad. I am shooting for under 200 lbs. for the complete quad.

RoostDaddy:
At one time there were some guys putting K5 motors in Tecate chassis'.   If you do a web search for KX500 Tecate, I'm sure you could get some ideas.

Thats a cool looking project it would be nice to see a all out dragger powered by somthing besides a Yamaha.

KX5Zuki:
Heres a couple more pics. There wont be an update for a little while, I gotta do all the final welding on the frame. Then it will be time for some suspension!

KX5Zuki:
Apartment life sucks, I was at the shop today, doing alot of the final welding on the frame. I am gonna be going to the parents house this weekend, where all my other quads and bikes are, and I am going to bring my drag frame down there. But since I am in an apartment, I refuse to leave all the parts in the bed of my truck out in the parking lot, so I hauled them all up stairs, and since it all laying here, I decided to put it together! HAHA. So heres a better shot of the quad, for those of you interested. Thanks dnmac1999 for the pipe, its perfect and fits like a glove! Also, I know the front of the seat sticks up some, I am going to be flattening it out, trying to keep it all low and at least "look" fast!
