87 kx500 output shaft nut

<< < (2/2)

kwakman:
i was gonna stump up for a new output shaft due to mullered threads, dont think i'll bother now.nice one toby. :-D

awak100:
You can put a new style output shaft in the old style bike  (nut). 

awak100:
Good idea toby.  I have a couple of those K5 bikes with nuts on the output shaft.  Ive been running those bikes for years without nothing on them.  1st time I did it, I wound that bike out full thottle with a brand new M5B 140/80/18 and let go of the clutch.  Nothing happened except the front tire flew up.  Did it about 10 times watching the sprocket, nothing happened except the front end flew up.  So Ive beem running the hell out of them.  I guess I might use your cutter idea.  1 of the few ideas that will probably work.  Good idea Well I probably wont.  K5's are tough.  You dont need all those bolts and nuts. Anyway there just my trail bikes.  Yea I have 9 of them.  86 87 88 89 92hillclimber 94practice hillclimber 99 02 04
