2000 KX5 Street SuMo Build

Brute:
Here are a couple of pics of the project. First is all the nice bits scattered around the bike.


Second is a shot from the back with a plate frame and personalized plate off of one of my crotch rockets from '92. Used it to mark and drill the holes in the fender. Can not see the mirrors but they are pretty much where I want them. The control switch cluster is on the left bar.

Going to leave the engine stock. It was running good at the end of last year so will probably leave it alone. MZB 100 watt lighting coil is already installed. Should be fun once I get it done. Will take pics and post as I move along. No, I will not be putting the personalized plate and heavy plate frame on this bike, though the plate name probably fits this one better!  :evil:

Foxx4Beaver:
is that a hand/home made pipe guard, or did you buy it?...I like it.
that thing's gonna look sweet when it's done.

sandblaster:
I'll be watching with great interest  8-)

Motorrad:
Me to

Brute:
Ya! You guys are making bets on if I ever get it done!  :wink: I have read and seen some builds on here that are WAY nicer then mine will ever be. Function over style is my motto.  :-D 
You have me convinced on the under plug temp gauge after reading around. Will probably put on both since the info of what temps 'should' be are so readably available on the site. Changing mix oil  :-) so I will want to keep my eye on it.
