Anyone know if the 88 kx500s where good motors? I heard that from 1988 on the didnt chance much so i figured i was in the clear with it... Thoughts?

I haven't started cutting yet so I can't give any hands-on advice for the swap. I gutted my engine to make it lighter as I do the frame mods.
The internet is full of advice, but you can tell pretty quickly who's actually done it and who is recycling garbage advice that might not be accurate (this is not a shot at kxriders!).
I'm lucky to have a friend who is a award winning welder/welding inspector, so my advice is to team up with someone like that!
Service Honda is hard to get a pipe from. They don't order large batches, so it's tricky.
