I would start by stripping the bike leave the swing arm and rear wheel. Drop the k5 motor in and see how it lines up to the rear sprocket. Maybe some machining? Maybe some spacers? Only one way to find out. Just get that thing lined up in the frame on that main rear mount and build from there. I would personally do a kx500 af if you plan on going through the retrofit process. Its been proven to work the best time after time and the r and d has already been done.

100% agreed... :-) with the right knowledge and experience you could build quite anything... i think at the moment to use a actual ktm 450- frame for the k5... fmf has realized a bike like this... i think its a good alternative against the the aluminium-frames... :-)
