ID KX500:
Trying to cleanup this 96 KDX. Here's the plan list

Fork swap
handlebar
rear shock swap
reed cage
carburetor swap
plastic
headlight
stop before it is a money pit :lol:




OK this what is done since I started. I took longer than planned,,,,but life has been busy.



WER steering stabilizer.


The Fisher seat is really the crowning glory on this bike. Rack from Happy-Trail.com mkers of dual sport racks and panniers.


I had two broken kickstands I saved,,, combined they made one working one. New Moose shift lever.


Hel brake line with an extra 4",,,works excellent. KX500 clutch cable worked better than KDX cable. New hand guards.


Carb from 99' CR125 boot from KX500. Boyesen Super Stock Reed. Rear shock spring from KX500


I rewound the stator the headlight is very bright. I didn't test watts but it is good must be over 90w. Hooked tail light up to the turn signal switch so I can turn it off. Nice 18 pin LED for tail.


This project was really to get a better learning bike under my step-son,,,he likes it a lot better than the KX500,,,for obvious reasons.




Fun day riding today.


New to me toy box.

Missed this

That was the original plan, but I found an 07' KX450 grenaded aluminum frame, hope I'm happy with the outcome. It may take years.

I'm weird, but I want my front wheel to help in the traction.
