KX450F - KX500 conversion

dpindet:
Round one at the welders is complete. Today the frame rails we completed. Now I gotta get the motor mounts and everything else fabbed up and tacked together. Here is where we are at so far, and just started a few weeks ago !

Got a little more done this week. The pipe is all ready to be finished welded. I used a CR500 pipe and put the KX nose on it, along with a few other adjustments/tweaks. The CR silencer bolted right up to the rear fender mount. I will probably just roll with that though. Here are a few pics. Like how I incorporated the KX's air box vent into the KXF airbox?

Man, you don't mess around.   Lots of progress in a relatively short period of time!   Looks GOOD!

dpindet:
The last of the welding on the frame was done today. Here are some updated pics.

If you dont mind me asking, what did this cost you so far? i just want to get a rough estimate of how much im going to end up paying when i convert my k5.


Thanx
