It has an alloy tank modelled on the smaller kx250 tank, an alloy airbox that we made as an exact copy of the original plastic item, Reiger rear shock, 46mm american 1989 front forks, completely rebuilt motor, all the bottom cradle of the frame was stripped out and re built, new seat cover, new bigger deeper alloy rads, Procircuit pipe and silencer, Procircuit clutch perch and loads of fancy do dads.

I am currently in the process of building 2 kx500 1989`s. hopefully they will be ready to race at next years Vintage Motocross Des Nations, at Farleigh Castle, England in Sept.2011. They will have handmade factory style swingarms on and alloy airboxes integrated into a hand made rear subframe. I managed to find  a few sets of brand new WP 4054 usd forks for them too.
