Service Honda KX500AF
alanj490:
I have been looking through the posts you guys have been hard at work making your own 500AF conversions. I was told of the Service Honda KX500AF bike from my local Kawasaki dealer this thing uses a 2011 KX250F Chassis complete with some special motor work to the KX500 motor.
Its quite pricey if you have nothing and they build one for you, somewhere around $11,500.00. Has anyone heard or had any experience with this companies bikes? I got some info from them to where I can get one done with my motor for $8,200.00. Alot more fun than a new KTM and cheaper. :-o

Service Honda and Kawasaki produces first class equipment. Talk to AJ, he's their go to guy.

Service Has Quality Stuff...............$11,500 for a ALL NEW MOTOR............or $8200 for an ALL NEW Chassis.........do yourself a favor & beg, borrow, sale to find the $3300. If you price out some of the parts on the K5 motor you will EASILY exceed the $3300 difference.
Just my $.02 worth.

I bought one in "09" but was able to get it with the "08" 450 chassis. Bike has been great so far!

$3300 for all new motor? Not worth it considering 2 strokes are so simple and you can buy a 2011 kx450 or 250f engine for $3000...I would rebuild the motor once the right way and ride the piss out of it! Also you say $8200 for all new chassis.. but what about the $3000 engine you now have left sitting to sell......Just something to think about
