Does it exist?

Can you post pictures with the differents pipes models, and informed me pipes brand please ?
Where are you buying this ? have you got some website interresting?

I'm sorry to need your help, but in france, there is not many kx500, and there is no pipe in store....

Thank you for your help !

A little french !  :-D

The pipe in that you would like to have looks like a CR500 modified pipe. To get the same thing in a plated pipe you could contact Service Honda, they make a pipe like that for the Aluminum framed KX 500. Actually I'm not sure you have enough clearance under your shock resovior on the KX 500 to use the low pipe.

Thank you for your answer !

It is very difficult  to find an echappement MILLET. If you know one has to sell, say to me!   :-D
Could you say me the difference between a PROCIRCUIT platinium and a PROCIRCUIT platinium2 please?
 have you got  any photos of the PROCIRCUIT exhaust  on a bike?   :roll:

dont want to take a piss on your strawberries but the low pipe you desire is that way cos its a 250 frame.you'll have lots of clearance issues with a 500 frame and you wont gain anything.HTH.
