Title: K-5 In Bike / Car Show
Post by: KX Newfie on July 30, 2008, 11:14:21 PM

I'm putting my K-5 in a bike show this weekend, & would like some information on the history of the KX 500 to share with the viewers.
I'll be sure to put up some pics. :-D
She'll be in hill climb / drag trim with the extensions & 14 paddle tire on  8-)

It won the Baja 1000 9 years in a row.

That's some achievement and big time history.
