Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)
Does anybody have any aluminum frames forsale?
Hillger:
Well so far only thing I have is the 89 500, I picked it up for $120 and the engine has good compression and spark in the process of getting new carb for it to verify that it was worth the buy. It being my first conversion I'm not a 100% where I am going to start other then I know I need frame rails the roller frame and a cr500 pipe to modify other then that I've seen people cut and use the same engine mounts so idk if that way is better or just to build new mounts completely.

this are all peanuts compared with this low price for your bike... i have found a 88 kx500 very bad condition, missing some parts like radiators and a damaged rear rim...
the seller ask for 2250,- € thats 3100,- dollars... for me way to much for a non running partsbike...
