Hi to all. Had a wad of cash sat indoors that I was itching to spend on something so ive thrown it at a very low use 92 KX500. Ive had many bikes over the years and currently race a '13 KTM 350 in enduro events....im an average rider id say! Anyway ive got this new kwacker and she arrives on Wednesday hopefully where I will determine wether to strip and rebuild or just clean her up for summer.

Im on the search for parts......Hmmmm where do I start  :mrgreen:

Foxx4Beaver:
welcome karlosthejackel....congrats on yourK5 purchase...post some pics of it when you can.
what parts are you on the search for? 

karlosthejackel:
The only thing I know id like at the moment are the fork guards in white, front disc guard in white and some frame protectors. She is bare as well so looking for the full set of period factory graphics.

Oh and a set of renthals with a brace. Its got non braced bars on at the moment. Any pointers would be great. ive been smashing the net for stuff but the bike aint arrived as yet!

Cheers for the reply!

Foxx4Beaver:
here's a couple new things...

take your time and shop around....you should be able to find some decent deals.

I don't know how tall you are, but it seems to be the taller riders(over 5'10") complain about finding a tall enough set of bars.I'm 5'11" and found the Renthal RC High bars suited me perfect...but again, take your time and use the search option on here and see what some of the other guys are happy with.

karlosthejackel:
yea im a big lad at 6ft 1. I got big risers on my ktm. thanks for the links. Ive got the "correct" graphics being made as we speak. Unfortunately one of those sellers you linked wont post to the uk otherwise id have had em!
