Just like to say Hi to everyone.  Been digging around on the net for a forum for the KX500 and there appears to be nothing in the UK.  Found this site and you lot seem to know everything there is to know about the KX5.

Only had the bike for about 1 month and it is the first crosser i have owned.  Rode a GSXR600 previously and fancied something a little different without the added risk of other road users.  The bike is awesome is a force to be reckoned with, it is a 1998 in good nick.

Cheers

Virgil

Welcome! Getting into the dirt will do you something fancy for your road skills.

I must admit i was a little wary of it's size at first, but a mate bought a KX250 last week and it felt too little and also too lairy.  The KX5 just pulls from low down and you dont have to rev the knackers off it!!!!! Just need to modernise the looks now.
