Tecaterider:
Got a little bit accomplished today.. Got the pipe cut and turned. All tacked up. Just need to burn it in and make some mounting tabs for it.. Kinda funny but I actually rode a KX5 for the first time today.. Impressed for sure.. It got me even more excited about the Tecate 5..

Your going to Love that machine I miss mine even though it scared me to death.
Your conversion looks great. Using the KX cradle was a good idea I built my own and it wanted to crack every so often
You will want to stretch your swinger mine was +6 with a tired stock 93 engine and it was still hard to keep the front end on the ground.
