Stainless steel is the best thing to use for this application.

Ok, thanks Tom!

Took her out today... WOW. I have never had a bike with the suspension set up for me specifically. I can't tell you what a difference in handling and stability it made! I haven't ridden in almost a year, and I felt faster than before! Not to mention the power! :evil:

Met up with some friends on crf450's. Need I say how it turned out? LOL they kept wanting to drag over and over. I think I hurt their feelings...

Nice looking Bike.
 I have a friend that had a crf 450 and bragged about how fast it was and than i told him I have a kx500 and he got real quit.  :-)

Thanks! Ya it was kinda funny. Not only did I pull the hole shots off starting in second, but every upshift (including fifth) brought the front end up. Then it just kept pulling, and pulling... Increasing the lead the whole time! I am in love! LMAO

Goat:
Very well done. Makes me want to re-do my bike again.
