Chuck Norris brushes his teeth with a kx500 conversion toothbrush..... :-D

Progress at last!
I teamed up with my old moto-bro Ray from goldmedalwelding.com and made the brave cuts on the frame.
The stock "y" was re-used, jfab frame rails are in place. We will re-use the stock motor mounts, relocated for the K5 of course.
When he does the finish welding, i'll post some better pics. This man can weld!

i use only this plug in my 250, 360, 500 ... its easy handling and on the big engines it gives the right clearance to the tank.. :-)
nice bikes on the first look, :-D ... its a little bad that the k5-engine is worn out, but new rod,piston crank bearings seals and plating and you´re back in business and it make sure, you have a great engine in the af-frame if you finish the projekt... :wink:
service honda use a light modyfied cr500 exhaust on their kx500af-bikes... you can buy a aftermarket cr500 pipe and weld the right kx500-flange on it for the cylinder-fitting . thats easier as cutting off and welding together the whole old k5-pipe ... :-D

Thanks Motopunk. The CR pipe is becoming necessary with SH not having anything available for the last 3 months!
What year of CR pipe?
LundMx:
Go with 89 to 01 cr500 pipes. Fits good on the 09-13 kx250f frames. I will try to post photos of how i welded my pipe to fit. Should be the same for you
