I am a 56 year old motorcycle lover and rider jst love off road MX,hillclimb,trail rideing and just haveing fun on anything off road. I got a few dunebuggies and some 4x4 toys, I am a Honda guy with a few Kawasaki's I have a 74 250 enduro not sure the model havent seen it in a year or so. It has the yellow rear fender that the tail light is resessed into kinda like a spoiler,cool. Only has 300 miles real nice. I have way to many bikes yet buy more.An active member on cr500 riders, built a cr 500 hillclimber, here it is in action

here it is in action
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvcs7PUXqMoI picked up a 90 KX 250 for 20 bucks missing all the external eletrics and just this weelnd bought a KX 250 running for 150 just because it was there and real cheep.
So now on to the real deal! When I got into hillclimb by a few guys I met and they let me try a KX 500 hillclimber it was cool and I said I want to build one yet beign a Honda guy I need to get a CR500. So I do that yet liked the way the KX 500 pulled. Yet did not like how much input have to put into the KX 500 to get it to change lines when pulling hard on a climb. Solution put a KX 500 motor in a Honda CR500 chassis. I have a few CR 500 rollers after building this
But now that I have a 98 KX 500 It need a rear shock and tlc I will ride it stock but am looking at doing a conversion I found a 2004 KX250F verry afordable needs a head so that maybe my roller we shall see would like something latter. How is the handeling and suspension on that 2004 KX250F? I am thinking I will not build a hillclimber but a sweet handeling 450 killer.
