2003 KX500 build (Progress Pics)

greylynn:
I did a partial trade on this 2003 KX500 and wanted to do a few mods.  I haven't checked the compression yet, but it seems ok by the feel of the kicker.  I'll check it this weekend when I get the tank and stuff off.  Some of the mods to come are IMS pegs, Plastics, V Force Reeds, complete wheel set up for dunes, rotors, Paddle, torque spacer, grips, and a bunch of OEM stuff to tighten it up.

Anyway, I always wanted to do a progress build and post pics of the transformation.  So here is what it looks like right after I bought it.  (After I removed all the stickers).

And please excuse the mess in my garage, I just moved  :-D

Here is after I started removing a few things.  These things including the kickstand which I haven't removed yet will be in the for sale section after I hit 10 posts.

Motorrad:
Ill be watching...

That kickstand is the best thing since sliced bread.... may want to reconsider keeping it..   I just had to shell $150 for one...   and Now that I have it.. Id gladly shell more than that.



EDIT:

Hmm.. Odd.. just noticed you have a RED STICKER....    That shouldnt be...      should be a green stickered bike..

Enduro Addict:
02 and older are green and 03 and up are red.

gwcrim:
+1 on the kickstand.

That bike will love you long time.  :-D
