Title: need a cylinder
Post by: 89kx5 on October 04, 2004, 06:38:28 AM

Hey guys, thanks for all the wonderful information about the KX500.  I purchased an '89 KX500 in July '04.  I have ridden this bike once.  I thereafter pulled the top end and found the cylinder was sleeved and bored 2mm.  End of the line for this cylinder.  I need a new or good used non sleeved cylinder.  The best price for a new one I have found is $395 + shipping @ midwest action cycle. If anyone knows of a better deal please let me know.  Thank You

That's not a bad price at all.  You might check with http://www.rpmsbigbore.com/ and see if you can swap your with some additional cash.

I second that.  They treated me very well.
