std k5 vs sf k5

(1/2) > >>

KXDINO:
Just started rebuilt std frame k5 few more bits for it than it going up against the 250 01 k5 , should be interesting to see and feel the difference between the to different frames , engines will be set up as close as possible, than I will try a set of kxf 450 15 forks etc on std k5  , they say on mxa flick they slide straight in , so I will give that a go as well as we have a modified set on a 15 here , will let you know if it works and how the 2 k5 compare in due course , time is short as the 15 getting sold to be replaced by a 16 as soon as possible.

Candyman:
You will need to triple clamps off the kx450F.
And you will need a custom stem such  as made by Emig Racing.
it will be cool to see how your build turns out.

KXDINO:
the builds are done , as for the 15 forks fitting i'm only going off what that guy was saying on mxa mag , as I have all the parts available at home , its only a matter of trying it , take one fork out and seeing if the other goes in , if it doesn't it doesn't matter.Mxa are not saying the full story. Time will tell.

sandblaster:
Hmmm....
KX450F forks 07:  UPPER 53.8MM - LOWER 59.1MM
KX500 forks 97-04:  UPPER 53.8MM - LOWER 58.9MM
That's interesting...
Anybody have a set of KX450F forks a bit newer then 07 that the could measure the clamping diameters on?

MRDART:
Roughly the same figures for the 08 450
I think I need a new vernier caliper
