Hi there guys does anyone know where you can get a full graphic kit for a 2001 Kx500 2001 and that they would ship to Scotland in the UK. It does not have to an original type as thats cost far to much just for 4 stickers but I would like something along the same lines can anyone help.......Cheers

Thanks for that Tuck I will look into those sites that you posted. Took the KX out today to one of the tracks here and really enjoyed it. The difference between it and the crf is quit a lot. The overall power i would say is more than the crf but there is no bottom end and you need a different riding style for the kx. And when you jumped back on the crf it was just effortless. So going to tear down the kx put in a new piston kit and check out the kips to make sure everything is ok and one of these moose spacers people been talking about on here and there is a new FMF pipe coming home. Unfortunatly the top exhaust mounting is broken and today the lower mount broke as well so need to get some welding done on it now. And also going to get new springs and service the suspension over the next few weeks.

CB,
I can't offer much help in the way of riding MX, all we've ever done was singletrack/woods.
There has been other discussion on riding style. Several of the guys still ride MX and could offer some advice.
Snoop a bit through the 500 engine modification threads for some ideas on moving around the powerband to suit your needs.

Think a difference in thickness of head gasket can make a difference in low down power ? My one sounds like yours and pretty docile - mates one was real touchie on the throttle, pointed me to the sky on a jump lolllol . Funny thing was though when we lined up and dragged I'd take him - he'd complain I was throwing rocks at him :) 18 inch rear to his 19 helped.
Flywheel weight is it that people run for more low down power ? Put real big sprocket on rear :)
Twice "The firing power" it should be sky's the limit with the K5 with mods - "like" a 1000cc four stroke dirtbike without the weight ? :)
