I have been working out the details of this idea for some time. I just finished it up this morning and if the rain here ever stops I will take the K5 out and thrash it a bit.
I think it was Dutch-K5 Fan that said he was interested in using this type of valve. The valve can be bought all over the internet and with very little head work and the little adapter that I am going to offer it can be installed on just about any head on any bike.

Thanks Dutch, I like the one built for chain saws that I put on my KX500AF but if you are running a stock K5 with an over size fuel tank it is hard if not impossible to use especially in a hurry. I just got in from some riding and so far so good. It starts easier than the AF but the engine is bone stock as opposed to 13:1. I think that is the difference. I used the same size hole into the cylinder. Thanks again for the idea Dutch.
