The dredded KX500 subframe

(1/3) > >>

Ramski:
Well, I'll be replacing my third subframe here. The last two were AC Racing aluminum units. The fit great but don't fare well when looped. There is a guy here in SoCal that makes nice steel ones for the Team Green guys that are much stronger and under $200. (OEM is $400  :shock: ). As soon as I get my hands on one of these I'll post it.

FastKX500:
yea my factory subframe cracked..nothing a little weld wont fix lol

Ramski:
Just ordered my subframe from True Torch Welding in Santa Ana from a guy named Johnny Severin. It was his last one for a while. $175. I guess he used to do a lot of work for Rocket Rex Staten who lives not far from where I am.

mikesmith:
Is it square or round tubing?
