Hi everybody, specially all of my kx500 bros, My Handle is streetsweeper and my name is Ruben. I bought my kx5 from kawasaki of riverside in 2001. Im from santa barbara and just relocated to lompoc ca.  Ilove to trail ride single trac,desert and ohv parks and where ever i wont get busted. I would like to eventually hook up with other kx5 riders.  I really benefit reading posts about kx5s im trying to learn as much as i can about my bike.

Have had the honors to ride trails on dual sport ride around Bass lake. Thanks for responding. look foward to eventully hooking up for a good trail ride:)

Thanks Ruben C.

blueoval:
That's awesome, Ruben.  I live in Visalia.  Just got back about an hour ago from a ride starting at Freeway Ridge off the 178 and rode to near Keysville.  Was a great ride today.  I usually hit Cal City to Randsburg every other sunday for the fast open stuff and East of Bakersfield for the tight single track stuff.  I usually ride at least one day a week, so let me know.   ted

streetsweeper:
is freeway ridge down where rancharia dirt road starts. do you have an oversize fuel cell? also what front and rear sprockets do you use curious about # of teeth? thats so cool to have done that today, iam sure the weather was fantastic out there, specially after the recent rains:) how did your kx perform?  lately my kx has been making some weird noise when accelerating. got a copper gasket for head to pipe connection, also been readin some posts about atf typef for tranny, few months ago noticed difficult shifting from third to fourth only, not sure whats the problem? just dont feel comfortable over reving when trying to grab another gear, so i slow down a bit try up shifting again with out using clutch lever then i works just makes me not feel that confident when i cant grab gears at will,specially in deep sand washes.  thanks for sharing about your ride today.   i will check my calender and get back to you on possible future rides. also did you solo today?

p.s. wish i was pre running the san felipe 250 course before this weekends race.  nice talking with you, thanks for your help.

Ruben C.
