Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Super Motard
What is the diff with 1993 vs 1994 and up wheels?
alward25:
What is the axle diameter? Warp 9 said they would lace up supermoto rims to the hub combo but they have not had a chance to mock up a 93 KX for the front wheel. I have a set of 2001 kx 125 forks and maybe my revalved 500 front forks if you wanted to upgrade which would be the easiest in the long run. On the rear you would need to mod the outer wheel spacers.

I really don't see that it is worth the hassle. The Cush- drive is only for long down the road trips, not likely something one would do on a 500. I would say keep it simple.

Then again a nice over sized rear brake rotor would be cool...
Sorry for hijacking your thread vaaprider.... :-o

No problem, I am sure I will learn more this way! I thought I came across a company that made a rear cush for 94 and up I will see if I can find them again.
