Maintenance & Technical > KX500 Aluminum Frame Conversion (AFC)
Another 450F to KX500 conversion
ToomanyKaws:
Still have to rebuild the other engine for it. And get the intake boot and carb fitted with the airbox. Did get the Service Honda FMF pipe and silencer for it and on.
Good:
I want to do this bad! Maybe I'll try to find a cheap 125 or 250f and go to work while my motor's being re-built. Great job, your mockup looks great.
ToomanyKaws:
I sent my engine off 2.5 years ago to be built. :oops: Asked for the engine back more than a few times along the way. I know where I am going on vacation soon though. Thats going to be interesting. What can you say. Some people cause their own problems.
So today I pulled the 20 hr engine out of my 02 KX500 and its being milled for the 18mm swingarm bolt. Hope to have the airbox and last radiator outlet moved and done and bike together in a few weeks.
Will post some new pics soon.

I think we have found some more of your secret Searchlight trails on the southeast side a couple of miles outside of town. You still riding with Nick? Haven't seen you post here for a long time. Thought maybe you had quit riding? Got a new phone and lost your number.

Bike is all together. Waiting on new chain and sprockets. Need some desert gearing. Right now got an 02 KX250 airboot sitting with the stock airbox. Have a 2000 CR250. Not sure which one I will use. Like how the KX boot clears the shock for the most part.
Few coolant lines to hook up yet. Can't see to upload pics on here... :-o
