Is it already twisting or is it strong enough???

I've had the K5 engine in there for almost a year now, and I have seen no signs of twisting, no cracks, nothing. Well, I do tend to go through pipe mounts fairly often, but other than that it seems to be pretty solid. I just recently got the 17's. The majority of the time I was riding trails and motocross, and a bit of desert. I've taken some REALLY rough landings and it was just fine.

I've got a 04 RMZ and realy like how the bike feels and handels.
The Alu frame conversions are realy great and looks very sweet. But the KXF/RMZ is one of the best designed bike there is. Whith yours, the engine looks perfect in that frame. Now big hole in the frame where the carb is. Looks like it's bild for a 500 engine!
