New guy from Dayton, Nv
on-edge:
Hi all. My name is Doug and I live in Dayton Nv. I have been riding dirt bikes since I was 6 years old (some 30 years now).
Last Thursday I finally got my dream bike, a '97 KX500. I have ridden numerous big bores but have always wanted a big KX. I traded my '89 LT250R Quadracer which was totally stock and in very good shape (it still had the original Dunlop tires on it).
What I got was a '97 KX500 with a '98 motor. It has quit a few goodies like Pro Taper bars with a Scotts damper, MSR clutch perch and lever, IMS tank (I think its a 3.3 gal), FMF pipe and silencer, FMF suspension front and rear, DID Gold chain, unknown brand alum. rear disc guard, and probably a couple of other things I'm forgetting.
Sorry to ramble on so much but I really love this bike. I really love this site also, I found it by accident while researching info for the KX (and there is a lot of great info. to be found here. I already gave the search function a good workout).
Anyhow thanks for a great site and thanks for having me.
Doug.

Glad to hear from another new k5 guy. I had always jumped on my best friends kx500
every chance I got. Finally had a chance to snag one up Dec '07.
Welcome to the club!
