Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)
Another 450F to KX500 conversion
ToomanyKaws:
My frame should be done in a week or two. It sat at the machinist for quite awhile before he got time to get on it last week. Will snap some pics when I drop off an ignition coil tomorrow. Still looking for another KX500 for a motor, carb, throttlw and ignition. Rest of the bike will be saved for a hill climb project. Can't wait to put the bike together with the borrowed mockup motor and atleast have most of it sorted out.
ToomanyKaws:
Frame is about done. He is finishing the head mount yet. Will have to mod the one radiator yet myself. Here are some pics from a week ago when he was welding the cradle mounts on.

Man U are going to have a nice bike when ur all done, But I am begging to think the 500 is to much bike, I almost looped my out a couple times at the track the other day, cant keep that front end down it comes up when it wants to!
ToomanyKaws:
I have a 99, 02 and 04 KX500s. So this 06 KXF conversion will make sort of four. Frame is done, I just got to pick it up. Looks like the radiator will be only real project. Hopefully. Going to use the stock gas tank for now and get a Service Honda pipe for it. So the entire bike will be mocked up with this empty engine. :-D
ToomanyKaws:
Picked up the frame yesterday and started putting some of the bike together. Need to get a pipe, and work on the left radiator. Then plumb everything up.
