New guy from Florida
96kx5:
Hello :-D. Just bought a 96 KX500 a couple weeks ago. This is the first 2 stroke dirtbike I've had in several years. I am trying to find out what mods need to be done to it on here- so far looks like V-Force, FMF pipe, and spacer. I bought the bike from the original owner and he swears it only has about 20 hours on it since new. It is all original in excellent shape! Original tires, no tears in the seat cover, original chain and sprockets, etc. So far I've ordered some pro taper bars for it. I kinda hate to start modifying it! My last bike was a YZ400F and I love the power the KX has! It still seems kinda slow though because I'm used to my GSXR 750. Anybody else on here around Ocala FL?

Welcome! If money is tight I would go for the Pipe and reed spacer first. The FMF Gnarly with the spacer will make an amazing difference in performance! :-D :-D

Welcome,
There seems to be a lot of new KX5 guys, :-D (I'm one too)
Several guys here are always squeezing more out of these things.
I wonder how far the factories could have gone with R&D had these things not gone out of "Fashion".
Take care and I think a little research can yield big gains.
Kawasaki, Let the Good Times Roll!!
