Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)
Sevice Honda looks to be kaput for AF's?
Danger4u2:
Yes, they are back on line.
Danger4u2:
I found this....
Unfortunatly because of the limited availability of two-stroke engines, and other parts used in the construction of the bikes these bikes are no longer being produced. In the same way; most of the parts used in these bikes such as cylinder's, cases and frames are not available either.
We appriciate the loyalty of the Two Stroke riders - and will do what we can to get you the parts you need. Just drop us a note using the chat or contat us page and we'll see what we can do.
Thank you,

The KX500 and CR500 motors are industry icons! I know they are long in tooth but there must still be enough parts demand to be viable for the Japanese (Kawasaki) to keep making parts? If I'm wrong so be it! Been buying KTM's since 2011 anyway. Long live my KX500AF!

If aliens stole all the Kawasaki two strokes tonight, we would all probably be riding pumpkins too. The Austrians love the two strokes almost as much as we do. I just wish Japan (minus Yamaha) could understand how many people there are like us.

World of power sports bought service Honda roughly maybe a year ago. They are a "mega dealership" style place and has only shown interest in the taking SH out of competition, rather than the AFC aspect of service Honda (most people forget service Honda has been a regular Honda dealership for ages). Last I heard was that AJ was going to continue to build cases and build aluminum frame conversions out of his garage under a different name. Contrary to popular belief, aj never actually owned service Honda, and the owner had inherited it and just wasn't interested, even though SH was profitable. I don't know how much of that is true though. Just what I heard from one of AJ's friends.
