The KX 500 is faster than anything in a straight or curvy line. Nothing is faster. It is by far the fastest piece of equipment ever made.  :-D

K5 is the fastest. The cr has more snap/throttle response, no powervalve lag. But top speed low end grunt the Kawi is sweet & wins easily. Dont get me wrong an 86 cr500 is fun, 87 & up were all detuned though.

yeah ..and its nice to feel the bear-power if the frontwheel lifts up still in 4th gear...  :-D
my kx360-big bore only does it up to 3th gear...

the k5 is also much more rideable as all 500 ktmīs maicos and crīs that i tested in the past. i tried an rm465 a few weeks ago and it feeled only like my kx360 with more bottom-power...
 and the k5 is the biggest 500-engine ever made in stock with 499ccm...  :-D

maico 500   : 488ccm
suzuki rm500: 491ccm
honda cr500: 492ccm
ktm sx 500  : 495ccm

put the right rider to the engine and he will be fast with all kind of frames...  8-)

Holy s**t!!  How did I miss all this action!!

For me I would have to say that to replace my beloved K5 it would have to be a "Big Wheel" like we all had as little children......like this one..................

Speaking of power per displacement, has the Honda rc116 ever been beat?  :-D I was doing 70 on asphalt with my KX5 and snapped the throttle in 4th gear with my 240 fat butt on it and pulled an unexpected wheelie. Enough of a pucker factor to crown it King in my book! Scared the crap out of me! Depends, where are you?!?!?
